Clean room -decent for solo traveller or a couple. Need some comfy chair for the work table. Room smelled a little so hope airing it out would be nice. Small chip in the washroom sink but not too crazy. For the price it's not too bad.

The room was excellent for the price and is conveniently located close to the BC Ferry and Hullo Ferry Terminals. No staff are on hand so it’s operated like most Airbnb’s with self check in using codes which are sent to you in advance after you check in online. Nice for the price!

The room was in good condition and appeared to be clean. I did find a hair ball on the extra blanket. There was a very strong scent in the room which lead me to believe it was covering up something. The rooms and door needs sound proofing as the TV from other units and the road noise was significant. I really appreciated the kitchenette and supplies provided within. Having a dish cloth and tea towel would have been helpful but I managed with a hand towel. I also appreciated having Netflix set up for viewing.

Suite was generally OK - location is not ideal; lots of traffic noise. The bed was not the most comfortable. But it was clean and the remote check-in was fine.

Yes getting in the room was a nightmare and no staff there to assist you! It was complicated for us to get our code to get in our room. The bed wasn't made either the next day but they did leave us clean towels. It must be under new management because it wasn't like that before. We won't stay there again! It took about an hour and 1 half waiting in the cold pouring rain to get in our room.

The room was in good condition. Check in was a bit different. They wanted me to scan my drivers license front and back before giving me the code to unlock the room. I refused to do that and just showed them my id.
