Nice motel by the highway.

Very nice motel with lots of space. Older but well maintained. Seems most rooms are actually more of a suite with a separate dining and tv area.

Happy stay at the Happy Salmon

A last minute booking turned into a very pleasant stay. The owner was very friendly and the hotel comfort/cleanliness were both excellent. Very well maintained. Happy Salmon is located next to the highway but road noise was not a concern. I would definitely stay again and am glad I found this gem.

You could easily just drive by Happy Salmon thinking “another old run down motel” - and you would be very wrong. If you want value for money, Motel Happy Salmon is the place. The room was spotlessly clean; the bed was comfortable. Great care has been taken to upgrade the rooms with nice fixtures and calming colours. One suggestion: bring your own bottled water as none is provided and the water tastes decidedly bleachy.

Spotlessly clean. Separate bedroom and living/dining room. Two different heaters so could keep bedroom cool while living space was warmer. Comfortable bed, nice light warm comforter. Would have liked "two" comfy chairs. Small round dining table and fridge. Burnt orange feature wall with dark wood paneling on floor. Great ambiance. I'd definitely stay there next time. :)
