Island West Resort-Motel

The picture of the resort is misleading, it made it appear that there is a balcony with seating areas by the rooms but the picture is the restaurant seating area by the marina. There is no bay view from the rooms as they are located at the back of the property on the opposite side of a hill. The dock ramp and dock is in major need of repairs and was dangerous for physically impaired people. With no parking for guests when they came to the marina for guided fishing trips. At the rooms there is limited parking because of all the boat trailer taking priority and there is nothing for handicap accessible to the rooms or parking. Access to the rooms are by deteriorating and non compliance to code. The room security was almost non existent only lock was by the inexpensive residential door handle lock, no deadbolt or even a working door chain. There was no tub Matt and because of a slippery tub the other 84 people in the room fell and couldn’t get up, managemetThe windows had no screen and were both accessible to public to climb through, the curtain didn’t cover the entire window so the interior of the room was visible to people walking by. The carpets and vinyl floors appeared dirty and didn’t appear to be clean the three days we her there. The beds were old and saved in a V, the middle of the bed about 2” below the ends. There were only three outlets available- one each for the bed light another for TV and the last by the table. We did not have power for chargers or CPAP machines.

Great views right by the harbour. Room very clean and equipped with full kitchen

very old and dated the staircase could be awkward for some but it was convenient to park in back and also liked having a full size frig and kitchen

Total dump with lights and appliances not working; completely inadequate parking(at a motel- lol), lousy room service and falling apart. Highway robbery at any price let alone what these “entrepreneurs” charge.

Easy to access. Staff is very nice. They have easy parking and they keep your clean room.

Great property and price for the location. The rooms include everything you’d need to “live” for your stay. There’s a stove/oven, fridge/freezer, etc and a laundromat close by. I would happily stay here again next time I am in the area. The motel is right by the marina and within walking distance to the shops in Ucluelet. I observed motel staff painting the motel while I was there so it is clear that the management cares a lot about the upkeep of the building. Book early as they fill up fast.

Very clean and functional “old school” motel which was dog friendly. Checkin was at a different location but we found it okay and the room served our purposes very well. I liked how the bed was in a separate room. There was also a couch and small table with two chairs. Laminate flooring.

I did not like the way the main office operation hours. The office sign posted 0930 to 1700. But when we arrived at 11:30 , the office door was closed. We had to call " Norma" in order to check on our room statis. The staircases at my motel are dirty

Absolute dive. Photos of property are extremely misleading. Dirty and mould in the bathroom.

We stayed one night at this motel. The lady at the front desk was very pleasant and attentive, which we truly appreciated. However, the condition of the room was disappointing. The dishes, pans, cutlery, and even the knife were dirty and sticky — clearly not washed properly. If you plan to use them, you’ll need to clean everything yourself first. The fan in the bathroom was extremely loud and couldn’t be turned off separately from the light, which was quite inconvenient. Only one power socket worked, and to access it, we had to pull the bed away from the wall. While the room did have a coffee machine, kettle, toaster, and microwave — along with complimentary coffee and tea — none of the appliances appeared to have been cleaned thoroughly. Additionally, the furniture surfaces were dusty and could have used more attention. Overall, while the front desk service was lovely, the lack of cleanliness and maintenance in the room made our stay less comfortable than we had hoped.

The only good thing about this hotel is the fact that it’s located in Ucluelet. I can’t believe how absolutely disgusting my bathroom is, the carpet is filthy, the balcony/stairs have very wobbly railings, a child or anyone could fall and kill themselves easily. If I could get a refund on my room I’d definitely try but there’s no other rooms available in this town. Highly disgusted and disappointed… I wish I could give -5 stars I should add, at checkout there absolutely nobody to take your keys, if you knock on the residence door they will peek out the curtain at you but they won’t open the door to speak to you. This whole place is a lawsuit waiting to happen. I should have taken many more photos of this place, it’s a dump!

Was upgraded from twins to doubles due to the room not being ready when i arrived, which was nice. But there was literally a dirty pair of underwear behind the tv in the gap between the wall in my room. Very outdated kitchenette. Pretty quiet stay though & didnt hear anything from the rooms occupied around me. Stayed here because it was the cheapest option, & now i know why that is.

Stayed with family and condition of bathroom was very bad. Cleanliness was also questionable as there were what looked like blood stains on the bedroom walls. Maybe ok for couple or single person looking for a cheap accommodation option but would not recommend for families.

We were able to check in early which was nice but once we got in the room it smelled like mold and there was a dirty dusty shirt my kids found under the dresser. We will never stay here again

Zero cleanliness

Hash browns left on the kitchen floor, a lot of debris on carpet, toast crumbs in cabinet.

It was a great motel for the price. Rooms were clean and was not far from the main area of Ucluelet.

This property needs maintenance badly and upgrading. Fan in the bathroom sounds like jet engine but doesn't vent anything. No screens in any of the hotel windows for any unit. No ceiling fans or ac. Got a call from office for late check-in once then couldn't get a hold of anyone ever again. Office constantly closed. No one ever answered the voicemail i left either. Basic cable and internet. Couldn't even stream apps on tv.

The rooms were spacious and the location is quite central which was important to us. The property is in some need of repairs and an update would improve the experience. Not everything in the room was working properly. Overall it was an ok stay but perhaps the price was a little high for the services provided.

Very comfy beds, clean kitchen, close and central to everything near by. Wallpaper needs to be updated. Has a musky smell, no hot water for our shower and loud knocking in the walls throughout the night which was kind of scary. But it was a comfortable space for one night.

Clean but very dated and utilities are old and run down. Pipes make a lot of noise as did bathroom fan and neighbouring units fan & water pipes. Could do with an external tidy up and some R & M.

If you aren’t looking for something fancy and you want to cook, this place is simple clean and quiet. The tv and showers are good and it has a fridge, stove and microwave so you can eat in. I also like hotels that use white sheets to cover duvets. The beds were very comphy. But don’t expect the Westin nor a resort. It’s a motel. But I’d stay there again. Best price in town.

We liked the location , it was clean and affordable. The kitchens are super under stocked. One sugar packet for the coffee. No salt,pepper, oven safe dishes or sharp knives. Not the end of the world the co-op has disposable foil pans but just a heads up.

If you are looking for a beautiful modern facility you will be very disappointed. The building is very old as was the bathroom facilities. But, if you are looking for clean sheets & towels & a mini kitchenette included, you may find it very good value for your money in Tofino (where hotel rates are extremely high generally), & this place may be worth consideration. Check in & keys were ready immediately and staff friendly.

Service was poor and room was disappointing. Check-in was in an office up the street. No one there so we had to go to the bar upstairs from the office. Inconvenient. No instructions for check out. When we did leave there was no one in office or bar, so we left key in room. Didn't like doing that but it was our most secure option. Room was in an old motel. Definitely Not a resort. Smelled a bit musty on initially entering room so we ran fans which helped. Picture of patio shown to left has nothing to do with room. Dust and dirt under bed. Kitchen outfitted with 2 bowls, 2 small plates, 2 large plates. None of the silver ware had matching designs on handles. They looked like something you'd pick up at a cheap garage sale. Pots, pans ok. One burner on old electric stove didn't work. Signs of water damage in bathroom. Also signs of mould stains, scrubbed. Vinyl flooring in bathroom lifting. In main room there was a metal transition piece; it made a bump. Floor was uneven, so table wobbled. I slept ok. Beds ok, but bit saggy. Only 3 hangers. I would have liked more. Location relatively quiet, very near marina for personal boats, and another marina for whale watching and fishing boats.

Have a great Time, clean Room, great service and Reasonable price will surely back next Time. Thanks for providing valuable information and response even when Office close for Victoria Day.

Awful service was terrible

No toiletries and all we got was new towels and coffee. Did not clean the room

Lived up to our expectations for an inexpensive motel. It is conveniently placed and the employees were friendly and efficient.

Easy to access. Staff is very nice. They have easy parking and they keep your clean room.

The staff is very helpful, but the property is too old. The shower runs cold water suddenly, the forcet is like sprinkler. The location is convenient.

Friendly staff

Good staff clean and good location

Pretty good. Has everything you need, convenient location and good price. We were pretty happy. Thanks for a great stay.

It's our twice Family visit at this place , easy accessible to Groceries store , clean Room and quiet place to stay. Easy access to Tofino , uclulet aquarium and lighthouse must visit place.

It’s not an ocean front and very expensive for what it’s worth

Easy walking around town. Great accomodation.

It was a great motel for the price. Rooms were clean and was not far from the main area of Ucluelet.
