Pros +
- The closeness to the ferry and the view. Airconditioning was great
- Nice room - but we stayed there for the view of the ocean!! Room was clean - could have used a warmer blanket. No hotwater @ 10 pm and again @ 8 am- no answer at the front desk- Left a day early! Man @ the front desk was very rude!
- Easy access from ferry
Cons -
- The silverfish. The patch jobs on the walls, rust in bathroom.
- Very old furnishings Bathroom dirty..mold around tub not cleaned.
- I didn¿t read the reviews and really should have. I don¿t recommend looking under the bed, it was absolutely disgusting. I stayed here with a small child and was worried about him sitting on the floor. This is not a hotel, it¿s an SRO. Cheap for a reas

Nice view
No internet, impossible to rectify this with management
Location
Room thermostat not legible. Stairs Overpriced
There is absolutely nothing good about this hotel!!! I guess the best thing was that the restaurant actually closed over two years ago, so we did not have the opportunity to get food poisoning!
This hotel was so dirty and unsafe that we left an hour after checking in and did not get our money back!This says a lot since there were no hotels available on the sunshine coast so we rode our motorcycle home with 2 ferries to arrive at 12:30 am.
proximity to the ferry
arrived to check in and clerk no where to be found. Took almost 1 hour to have things resolved...turns out he was downstairs having his dinner (9pm) and again no where to be found at check out. Room heater didnt work properly either.
bed and couch were comfortable; room smelled clean
filthy hallway carpets; bathtub needed recaulking; restaurant closed, but probably due to COVID; quite dark lighting in hallway and lobby; no elevator
Close to freely terminal
The price was shown incorrectly, $--. Was actually $--. The manager owner was rude yelling that it is American the $ is an American sign not Canada's. We felt threatened as women by him. In the morning he came out yelling again about the room key.
Room obviously was renovated and was done well. Items inside the room such as TV was also new. Room had a new mini ref
no chair in the room
The beds
Other guests were partying very loud ALL night!!
The best thing was, that the ferry starts right next to the hotel.
Not really clean (p.e. Old cans under the bed)
