The room was clean and though a bit in disrepair - the staff was excellent, very friendly and helpful - the best part of the Hotel for sure. There was extra security at the hotel which made a bit of a sketchy area feel safe and with a little upkeep, some paint, and some much needed repairs this will be a very lovely place at a good value

Good, the bad and the ugly

Good, bad & the ugly. Photos of the place online are the best thing about this place. The lady checking us in was very helpful. That is the good. The bad: the area is sketchy; my wife said “this is a dump” as soon as we arrived. The place is run down, in need of major upgrades, and overpriced! The ugly: some of the tenants don’t seem to have cars and appear to be long-term tenants that didn’t pay the $194 per night that I paid and some guy was yelling “Turn off the air conditioner” and banging on the walls for 30 minutes. I was ready to phone the cops.

I did not understand the directions to enter our room because the email referenced the name of the room, but itonly had a number. We did figure it our, but I believe that issue is fixed now! The room was really great. We loved the location, the decor. We were repeat visitors to Alert Bay- last time we camped- this was much more fun
