What guests think

At Timberlodge RV & Campground, travellers describe budget-friendly stays with mostly clean, updated rooms and an excellent on-site sushi restaurant, while the exterior and surrounding grounds look older and less appealing.

The highway-side location is convenient for drivers, but some rooms experience traffic noise and views toward dumpsters or the campground. Service is often friendly and accommodating, though guests report occasional check-in delays or limited after-hours availability. Expect a straightforward stopover with standout on-site dining.

A very sweet gentleman welcomed us with a big smile that melted our tiredness from the late arrival 11 pm check-in. He also accommodated all of our special requests. Hotel parking lot is huge where has no problem even oversized RV. Everything in the room was so clean especially bedsheets, blanket, towel and mattress. The sweet gentleman and his wife set off us in the morning. Our family enjoyed the stay and definitely will rebook the hotel again in the future.

On one of the beds, there were obvious greasy looking spots on the grey comforter/blanket. In front of the bathroom, there were dried up droplets of something on the floor. The soundproofing seem to be nonexistent as we could hear the TV from the next unit well past midnight.

THe beds were comfortable, the sheets and comforter were clean and like new. Our biggest complaint was a smell in the room and the carpets were badly stained from previous guests. We were thinking matbe from fidh guts on the bottoms of their boots.

For a budget motel, this was excellent value. The room had fresh paint, newer carpet, fresh linens and bedding, a well renovated bathroom, and a new large screen tv. It was very quiet as I had no neighbours beside or above. There is a Japanese restaurant on site that gets rave reviews from locals and serves breakfast. I would definitely stay here again.

The rooms are older and ours smelled musty- likely from the carpet. The mattress was saggy but not too uncomfortable. The room was reasonably clean; it’s not easy to make an old room look really clean. We were on the ground floor so had sliding glass doors to outside which was nice. However, the area outside was very unkempt- old rickety table and old chairs as well as generally not kept up. The motel is on the highway but was quieter than we expected.

This is an older motel and even though is was renovated it has a musty smell. Screen door not repaired and very difficult to open. Restaurant food is Japanese cuisine. Room was clean and bathroom clean. Towel rack hanging loosely from wall in bathroom. No bathtub mat provided and tub was very slippery. Carpet in room had 6 inch diameter burn mark. Door to room had no weather stripping and allowed traffic noise to come in. Building situated right next to highway.

Overall it was a good stay but ran out of toilet paper and on top of that everyday they came in to “make the beds” didn’t really make the beds just threw the blankets over unmade beds and upon leaving the room they NEVER re-locked the door behind them. Dosnt leave you a sense of security

The motel had no staff available until restaurant opened up but that did not guarantee someone knew how to check you in when website says 3 pm check in. No access to towels, extra pillows or blankets. One package of coffee first night, nothing after that, stayed 3 night. Building is old but room was clean upon arrival. Owner was away in Korea for 6 months. Just a strange operation of a business. Stayed last weekend of September. Restaurant was excellent if you like Sushi /Japanese, highly recommend food.

Location

Roadside setting on the highway is convenient for drivers and a short drive to town and stores. It is not very walkable, and some rooms look toward dumpsters or the campground.

It's looks rundown on the outside but my room was renovated. Room was clean beds were comfortable. Water pressure isn't top notch but it's hot. This is a convenient location. I was visiting family in Port Alberni I was about ten minutes to town and anywhere from 30 minutes to hour and half to anywhere else. Depends on where you want to sight see etc.

Although in the centre of the south of Vancouver island, Port Alberni really is a port. Vancouver Island is big, beautiful and quite remote, especially given that it's so close to the city of Vancouver. The property is a fairly typical motel, clean and comfortable and designed for a car user. Which is just as well as while I did see some bus stops in town, i can't imagine how you would get there by public transport.
