Pros: This is, as with whole town, a stop over for the ferry! Despite this, the staff treat everyone as a visitor and are most helpful in pointing out the (limited) local sights.
Rooms are large with two double beds and an amazing view of the harbour.
The kitchen is limited but allows heating up of meals. There is a guest laundry which was a low cost way of catching up.
Wifi is fine and parking is easy.
The restaurant is OK again friendly service and a good value breakfast. We had dinner once as there is little choice in town and were charmed by a family of black bears that came put right by the window.
Cons: The furnishings are a bit tired although it all works.

Pros: Bed was comfortable and the rooms are a good size.
Cons: This is a very average hotel and when you add in the taxes it is nearly $190 a night. And that doesn't even include breakfast! We have stayed in much better hotels for far less money. With the ferry arriving around midnight I quess they think they can charge whatever they like. Also the hotel overlooks an industrial part of the harbour including a rather unattractive log sorting yard. Not exactly an oceanfront resort. Frankly next time we will drive down the road to Port McNeill and stay there instead.
