Total dump with lights and appliances not working; completely inadequate parking(at a motel- lol), lousy room service and falling apart. Highway robbery at any price let alone what these “entrepreneurs” charge.

Definitely not what was expected. Should be described as a surfer’s or fisherman’s motel. Only thing decent about the property was the water pressure in the shower. Will never stay there again

Besoin d’amour, mais propose et bien situé.

Comme les commentaires précédents, l’établissement doit recevoir de majeures rénovations, nous sommes presque restés avec un robinet dans les mains, mais ce qui est là est bien propre malgré l’usure. Même si le prix par nuit est moins cher que ce que nous trouvons autour, cela ne justifie pas l’état presque à l’abandon de la bâtisse pour près de 400$ la nuit. Toutefois, nous avons apprécié l’emplacement de la chambre, Uclulet se visite presque tout à pied. Les employés ont été très gentils attentionnés.

Overall was okay , we didn’t spend much time in the hotel room as we were busy and it was very out dated , no plugs in the bathroom , and blinds were missing parts so hard to cover window with blanket , but the staff were excellent , over priced for the room for sure. But did the trick . Bathroom is on its last legs . Toilet barely holding on , and shower and peeling and showing gross rust , great pressure though , so it was overall not the worst . Kids didn’t mind it .

The only good thing about this hotel is the fact that it’s located in Ucluelet. I can’t believe how absolutely disgusting my bathroom is, the carpet is filthy, the balcony/stairs have very wobbly railings, a child or anyone could fall and kill themselves easily. If I could get a refund on my room I’d definitely try but there’s no other rooms available in this town. Highly disgusted and disappointed… I wish I could give -5 stars I should add, at checkout there absolutely nobody to take your keys, if you knock on the residence door they will peek out the curtain at you but they won’t open the door to speak to you. This whole place is a lawsuit waiting to happen. I should have taken many more photos of this place, it’s a dump!

We liked the location , it was clean and affordable. The kitchens are super under stocked. One sugar packet for the coffee. No salt,pepper, oven safe dishes or sharp knives. Not the end of the world the co-op has disposable foil pans but just a heads up.
