This hotel is nice, the staff have great customer service, the pool is nice and clean. The gym could be nicer with more up to date equipment and open for longer hours (5:00-11:00 perhaps). This hotel is not walkable to the shopping area Quay. It would be nice if there was an option to include breakfast in the cost of the room. I recommend this hotel if you are ever in Port Alberni. Or driving to Tofino and want to stop in for a break to a city that is a bit more cost effective.
