Stayed a night on our trip around Vancouver island. Rooms were nice and clean and breakfast was good Hotel had a outdoor pool that we didn't use but looked really nice. Only issue i had was that the room smelled of really perfumed cleaning supplies when we arrived. Was afraid it was going to cause allergy issues but it didn't.

Liked: Cleanliness
The stay was just average, the rooms were partially renovated with worn and warped bathroom doors that did not lock, the tv was not plugged in and required the entire tv unit to be moved to plug it back in which the staff did not bother doing prior to our stay, perhaps because it’s heavy, but this shows a definite lack of care at this property. The lobby was nice but the hallways, especially the carpet is dirty and looks worn. breakfast was definitely lacking: tasteless, overwatered orange juice, an oversupply of desserts and lack of healthy options, eggs, burnt sausage etc. that were gone well prior to the end time of breakfast - all served in the basement in a tired, old looking room. I requested a cleaning service for our room during our stay which was not provided. The only plus was the cleanliness and comfortable beds but definitely not the best “best western” we’ve stayed at yet fairly expensive. Would not stay again and would not recommend to others, there are other, better options elsewhere.

Ridiculously priced for what was offered. At $300 CAD, this property and the staff were thoroughly disappointing. Check in staff were not friendly, pointed us to amenities that didn't deliver. Said there were vending machines on site but they were empty and it was too late for restaurant. Staff response? "Oh." Room was noisy and smelled dank. Hallways dingy. Needs a deep clean.
