Places to stay are graded on a 0-100 scale. The higher the grade, the easier it is for travellers to find restaurants and things to do within walking distance.
Management - 5 stars, convenience factor - 4 *. Cleanliness of room - 4 *. Beds were comfortable, room was a generous size. Fixtures were older, and the unique (and old, not recently replaced) bathroom taps that just turned (water off, turn further, water on, turn again, off etc) were annoying but it was a minor annoyance. Some of the clientele that 'hung out' in front of their rooms to smoke left much to be desired, and the smell of their cigarettes was enough to gag a person as you came and went from the room. Value for money was reasonable.

The beds were a little hard, but the room was clean and a great price. There are a few motels along the strip in Port Alberni and this one was the best value. And the owner is a decent guy too...........which has to count for something.

Was very pleased that it is a pet friendly motel. We had a smoking room also hard to find these days. It is an older motel, it was not dirty just dated. We saw no bugs, for a Friday night it was very quiet. All staff we spoke to were friendly and helpful.

Serious bedbug problem, do not stay here. My friend was covered in bites after one night, this place is disgusting and should be shut down by the health board. I would rather sleep in my car than ever stay here again

Only stayed one night, and glad as the room could be cleaner. Typical dated room with lots of chipped paint, stained grout in tub, etc. Huge black hair in the tub (how do you miss that?!?) with dirty feet prints, and when I patted the bed calling my pooch to jump up, ALOT of dirt flew up. Kind of gross actually. I'm not super fussy, so dealt with it. Room was big, two queen beds (for one person), good larger flat screen tv, coffee maker, microwave, fridge, air conditioner and fan. Enough coffee for one tiny cup only in spite of having two queen beds. Good location essentially right beside a Mcdonalds, Tim Horton's, Subway and Grocery Store. When I checking in the room they assigned was still not made up from the previous occupant, had to go back to the front desk and change. If you're the type that has to have a spotless room, go elsewhere.

The furnishings are basic and dated and the units are in need of cosmetic upgrages but they are clean, comfortable, and quiet, and the management and staff go above and beyond to ensure guest comfort. If you're looking for plush duvets and a pillow menu go somewhere else...and pay a lot more. This motel is an ideal choice for the budget conscious traveler and also offers kitchens, a clean outdoor pool, great location, restaurant, and in-room wifi. We spent 3 nights here and would not hesitate to return.

Comfortable (the most comfortable bed and pillows I've had in a hotel) and spotlessly clean suites, well equipped kitchen, great location and amazing staff. My three day stay ended up lasting two weeks and I hate to leave! Management and staff go out of their way to ensure your comfort - the restaurant truly does have the best fish and chips around, an amazing breakfast - all this at a great price. I highly recommend the Tyee for anyone visiting Port Alberni.
