It was quite a large suite and extremely well located. Staff was very friendly and helpful. Exterior needs a paint job, but I can live with that. Bring a sharp knife if you're going to use the kitchen!

There were four of us and the accommodations were fair. I liked the television and the couch bed was comfortable and large (a queen). It was very convenient to everything in Ucluelet. Our suite was not luxurious but it was clean and roomy enough for us to enjoy ourselves.
