For a motel, we would rate this property 5 out of 5. While it might not look like it from the outside, at first glance, the property is very well maintained, and the rooms have been recently updated with modern furnishing, with fresh pain, flooring and carpet. The mattress was high-end and very comfortable. It was also spotlessly clean. The staff were wonderful, and do whatever they can to make your stay as pleasant as possible. There is a bit of street noise during the day, but it is quiet at night. This motel is within walking distance to some terrific restaurants, as well as the beach/ocean, and only a 5 minute drive into downtown Qualicum Beach. The back of this property also has a lovely elevated garden area with a nice seating area that has views of the ocean and mountains. We also enjoyed the higher-quality hand soap, shampoo, hair conditioner and body lotion. Wonderful stay. We will be back.
