I stayed here towards the end of Mar 2025 booking the same day. I found Powell River to be a tougher town to book than many - with not a lot of the "chain" hotels there (chain hotels benefit from consistency - which can be both a good and bad thing). I called them in the morning from Comox to get a feel for the place and I liked the voice of the person on the other end. I determined that it was likely not to be full later that night but the next night was likely full. I called back later from the Comox - Powell River ferry (after 3:15) and booked. The price was in line with the other places I stayed earlier in the week so I was satisfied. When we got there we were greeted by a desk clerk with personality (Metallica hoody) who was more efficient than anyone in recent memory. There are probably no more than 22 units and each unit has a parking spot right out front. We got #12 which was right at the top of the property. The motel is on a pretty steep hill but that means that we had a great view of Georgia Strait and the mountains of Vancouver Island. the place was newly remodeled and had a kitchenette, microwave and fridge, new floors, and paint. There was fast internet and some plates, cutlery and pots were available. The floors were a bit squooshy in parts which might get annoying if we were there longer than 1 night. We were delighted with this stay and I would stay again. It is within walking distance to the ferry terminal and we walked to a local Thai Restaurant (Thaidal Zone).

Great location and layout for our family and kids. We didn't have hot water (never got warmer than room temperature) for the two nights we were there. There were also no outlets in one of the two rooms, and in the other room (where we had our kids sleeping) all the outlets were attached to the light switch; this forced us to piece together a nightshade for the overhead light so that we could leave the light switch on and have our kids noise machine plugged in. Shouldn't have to tolerate these things for a short stay.
