If I could give 100 stars for the staff, I would! Fayad at the frontdesk is exceptional! From check in to check out the service is *chef kiss* they even have a lounge area where my friends and I hang out and fayad made sure we got all we need and made us popcorn too! Will surely stay here again when we’re in Powell river! The location is very prime too! Very near to all the good restaurants and good spots!

Overall the stay was good other then a few issues at check-in when two of our three pre booked rooms were not ready. Our so called family room was not so family friendly when it came to sleeping as it had three very large windows that faced the main road that offer little sounds protection from the traffic sounds. The staff was nice.

This was a lovely little oasis. Small but mighty comes to mind. The need was exceptionally comfortable and the sheets were amazingly soft! Tiny little bathroom but it has everything we needed and more. Clean as a whistle as well. All the stars, especially for the price point.

Great location - right next to Comox/Texada ferry. Central to Powell River. Walking distance to downtown, local caffe's and restaurants. Greatest ocean view in the area! Rooms were clean, but a coffeemaker did not work properly and the air-conditioning system was very loud. However, you have to use it as the room was getting very hot in the afternoon. Free parking, but not enough for all guests. Plenty of free street parking available.
