The room was very nice, and the hotel is in central Tofino. However, the internet was so slow to be unusable, so we had to run up charges on my US cell phone to take care of ordinary business.

Love the location, parking was available for us, and they set up a cute pet area for our pup! They let us have free drip coffee, ice was available for the cooler provided and they had a promo for free welcome cocktail! The lady at the front was super sweet and let us check in early and when i left my ID at the front desk she tucked it in our room for us which was super sweet!! Will stay again!
