I liked the motel. Cozy is an apt word. Pool was not suitable for swimming in. The water was green & cloudy. lol. There should have been a sign stating to stay out
We stay here because it is close to the ferry and reasonably priced. It is dated but the suites are spacious and have a lovely Courtyard. They advertise Kitchenettes but really just fridge and microwave an a few dishes. There is a 2 burner stove but no pots or pans. There is very little cutlery supplies. But was just fine for our stay and we would stay again.
Property was very old and in serious need of an update. Musty smell. Cob webs everywhere. Furniture and fixtures were in need of repair or updates.
No shampoo or conditioner in room.
Front counter staff was kind and helpful.
Price is outrageous for this hotel.
This is a well kept aging property with friendly staff. The room had an old seventies West Coast vibe with cooking amenities and a nice courtyard pool. We look forward to staying again .
The room did not look like the picture , bedside tables were sticky and the paint was peeling off. Cracks in the floor, cracks in the tiles above the tub, cracks in the heart. They only gave us one access card due to them saying they get stolen which made it very inconvenient for the two of us to organize our time there. When we arrived we were told with a smile that the pool was about the same temperature as the ocean. It looks nice on the website but it was too cold to swim in. I choose this hotel based on the pictures and the pool. I did not get either for 175 a night.
Nice greeting. The pool was not really that appealing as the pictures would have you believe but the room is large and the bed was comfortable.

The lady at the desk was nice. The place was pretty old and not updated but was clean. Pool was very cold. Very few staff there as there was very few rooms used each night.
The “hotel” is nothing like the photos they show on their site. The place is filthy dirty, everything is so old, we were very disappointed and disgusted by this place.
I wouldn’t recommend never going to this place.
This is the worse hotel I have ever been to.

Good for a stop over, but most of the excitement in Gibsons is down by the waterfront which is 1km down a hill.
The motel itself was OK but the pool was closed and we tried to check in a bit early and were told to come back at 3PM. If you are going to spend a couple of days i think i would find something by the harbor.
