”Great location and staff”

”the outside bbq area and fireplace were an added bonus! Great place to stay”

”The bed was very comfortable, and the shower had great water pressure and ample hot water. All of this in a clean and economical room, what more could one ask for.”

”The bedding had poop and blood stains and the brown girl at the desk double charged me. They don’t provide breakfast other then juice and coffee and yogurt and the rooms are dated and musty. I grew up in Duncan and moved to Ontario and travel for work but the standard this place had put the bar in hell and you have to limbo under it. 10/10 do not recommend.”

”Location for us was perfect. Hotel was quiet. Staff was great.”

”What made this property and stay extraordinary was the host. Juliette was so wonderful! She made us an amazing to-order breakfast. She gave us a box to safely travel with a fragile purchase. She got a map and marked it all up for us with recommendations on what to see and where to go on a lovely hike, plus with the scenic route to get there. She recommended a dinner location and told us to stop in at the Thrifty so we could get very discounted ferry tickets. She was super friendly and we...

”Although the rooms are a bit dated, the beds were clean and comfortable, the room was tidy and the gal on reception was very friendly and helpful.”

”The room was basic and clean.Air conditioner worked well.Surprising choice of TV options. Fridge and freezer both worked well.Downside for me was no blowdryer in the bathroom but I would stay here again.”

”A very friendly and enjoyable place to stay.”

”We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The room was tastefully updated, clean and comfortable. It had everything we needed in the kitchen, the bed was comfortable and it was spacious for my wife and me. The shared outdoor space was immaculate and we enjoyed a morning of swimming off the docks and reading in the hammocks. The climate control in the room worked efficiently and quietly. Ed’s coffee shop next door was cute and convenient. Our stay felt like a home away from home. Thanks for a great time!”

”there is no staff there so you are on your own - but that is ok - it is a very small place - old but totally updated inside no extra emenities at all on the outside (ice etc) the stairs to the top floor are not the best but if you are fit, they work!! Booking was great with Expedia but the hotel itself says you need to fill out a form and give 2 pieces if ID? which is not true!! for the money it was worth it”

”I cannot say enough great things about this place. It’s a must! The rooms are comfortable & cozy. I haven’t stayed in the castle yet, that’ll be next! Love love love this place. I’ll recommend it to everyone. And right by the beach too.”

”Quite area. Clean space. Nice to be stay away from Duncan.”

”The manager was extremely helpful !! 😊 My room was cool enough even though the outdoor temperatures soared to 28 degrees and hotter! Wi-Fi was available and there were a number of channels to choose from on TV. There were cafes and restaurants close by. The flowers were a lovely addition to the property! 🌹🌸 The price was more affordable than other hotels in the area! 🤗 Margot Denny Nanaimo June 24, 2026”

”People above were noisy and came on at midnight. Shower spread water everywhere. ”

”5 stars Aside from the bloodstains on the carpet and the 1 mouse we saw under the fridge, The place was pretty clean and felt pretty safe. The staff were very friendly. There were no bed bugs or cockroaches I figured there were enough spiders in the corners of the room to take care of all those pests, but did a double check just to be safe. The shower had great pressure. I mean it better cause it sounded like a bomb going off every time you turned it on. The hot water was great for long...

”We truly enjoyed our time at the lake and for all the wildlife visitors in the yard!!! I don't hesitate in recommending this property and would definitely book it again!!!”
