Ready to be condemned! There was no smoke detector in our room, we had spiders and centipedes crawling around the head of our bed, black mould in the shower, an ant trap in the closet, multiple lights were burnt out, the AC was broken and it’s filters black and disgusting, the TV was from 2002 and also didn’t work and finally… The internet was broken. This dump is not up to fire code or basic health standards. I’ve alerted the fire marshal and would not be surprised if they shut this place down. Sleeping in your car is a better option than this place.

The location is good, almost in a central location of the island highway. There are all kind of shops nearby and it is right in front of the beach. The front office staff were also nice. But, the property is pretty old and will need some uplift soon. We had an issue with the bedsheets and pillow covers full of hairs. Tried to clean up, but it was all over the sheets. Not sure if it was replaced or properly cleaned. The lady at the front desk quickly gave us a replacement. Have a Chinese restaurant attached to it which is open from 11am - 8pm usually.

Great location right next to the beach. For a motor inn we were pleasantly surprised that the interior looked nicer than the outside. Staff were friendly upon check in and had great recommendations. Only downfalls in our room were electrical issues. Our personal drying wouldn’t turn on in any of the plugs (this could of been an issue with our dryer but it worked fine at home), we had to plug in our lamps (which the only outlet available by the beds was blocked by the headboards screwed into the wall), and we had to unplug the fridge because it was way too noisy. Overall for the price we paid and the location, it’s a good place to sleep at night.

Staff checking me in were friendly and helpful. The tv didn’t work first night when I came in late, nor did the phone charger. I was visiting for a relative in palliative care so getting messages was very important. I asked for those issues to be dealt with when I extended my stay the next morning. When I checked in the afternoon they hadn’t been but the new person at front desk cheerfully came and fixed tv. I used their extension cord to plug in the phone charger. When asked how my stay was on checkout I suggested their electrical needed some upgrades (extension cords for lamps and balls of wire etc) I was met with rude behaviour and excuses. Too bad, not much accommodation in Sechelt….I’ve stayed before and likely have to again but will be checking that everything works. Beds are comfortable and nice to have fridge, microwave and coffee maker.

The view from my room was beautiful. Nice walkways near by, convience stores near by. Friendly cleaning staff. A bit worn down, locked entrance door stop would not stay up. It fell down when doir was open. Unless you bent down and flipped the door stop up, the locked door would remain open. Desk in room should be much larger, too much crammed onto it, very little space to work (computer). The restaurant was closed, this should have been noted when booking and there should have been a discount without this amenity.
