The stay was quiet and nice but not too secluded. The online photos of the room were not what it looked like in person; much more run down and older property. Kitchen, tv and bathroom amenities were good.

The rooms were old and outdated. My son developed a cough from the conditions of this place. Every morning the walls and floors were SOAKING WET! Yellow Pee stains on the bathroom floors. No matter how many times you flush the toilet, it always sticks like urine. Fridge STINKS of fish! Staff were unfriendly, checkout was almost impossible. It was as if we did them a favour returning the keys. I could go on for days. The only thing that saves this place is the location. Will definitely return to Ucluelet but will search for alternative accommodation.

Great property and price for the location. The rooms include everything you’d need to “live” for your stay. There’s a stove/oven, fridge/freezer, etc and a laundromat close by. I would happily stay here again next time I am in the area. The motel is right by the marina and within walking distance to the shops in Ucluelet. I observed motel staff painting the motel while I was there so it is clear that the management cares a lot about the upkeep of the building. Book early as they fill up fast.

The accommodation was not as shown in the photos... everything was very run down. There wasn't even any water in the shower - so it was not usable. When we informed the front desk about it and asked for parts of our fee back, we were told that we probably just couldn’t figure out the use but that it for sure „functions“. There was overall little space and you could hear every little noise. Additional to all of that the space didn’t feel clean at all and we tried to spend every minute we could away to minimize the time we had to spend there.

I booked this room to stay with my son, I felt extremely unsafe at this property, there was multiple homeless people hanging around outside and coming out of the bushes by my room. The room was dilapidated, run down, dirty and smelled absolutely horrible. My check in was sub standard as I was told to pick up my key at the pub. I walked into the room, looked around, took some pictures and I made the decision to go book a room somewhere else. I am extremely upset that I wasted $420 on this disgusting room. I want a refund!!

Hotel in Ucluelet.
The building should be demolished. There was mould in the tub, a badly stained toilet and a stain on the carpet in front of. One bed. We got a refund and went elsewhere. You obviously don’t vet what you promote. The place is unsafe.

This is no resort. It was old and run down. Dirty room, bed linen, bathroom and with paint peeling off the ceiling. We only booked this last minute because our large group needed an extra place to stay for 4 people. 2 of our group got bitten by BED BUGS, which we have pictures. I called the office when we left to report this and the manager didn’t bother to return my call. DO NOT STAY here even if it is free!!!! The booking was through Expedia and they were no help either.

We booked two days through Expedia. The pictures are touched up and very outdated. The room we were provided smelled like mold, old cigarettes and rotton meat. My wife and I wouldn't even stay the night. The beds were infested with something (bed bugs?) but we couldn't even stay an hour, we returned the keys promply went the Ukee Peninsula motel. This place should be condemed. Please don't waste your money.
