The whale’s tale building’s exterior is getting to the embarrassing point. Siding is missing or rotting in many places. Walls are paper thin so if you have a lower level room, you’ll be hearing stomping all night until they decide it’s time for YOU to go to sleep. Be aware that the pool is public (fee) so vagrants and bush people shower there regularly. I’ll spend the extra money and stay somewhere next time that invests in the maintenance of their property.

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.

If you rent a kitchenette, be prepared to BRING EVERYTHING YOU MIGHT NEED. This is a super run down Motel, the kitchen was so undersupplied that our plans to cook were abolished and we were forced to pay to eat out. It had a few dishes, no knives, no cutting board, one baking dish, one small pot. No dish soap!! and yet there are big signs stating you will be charged if you leave dirty dishes. The carpets were stained, the room moist dank, and bed spread must original, from the 1970s. The place is a dump, siding with rotten holes in it all over, the check in is in another building on another street, so is the pool, which we didn’t bother with. Expecting a similar state of disrepair. At a cost of almost 300$ a night, robbery

Older property but interior was clean and functional. The exterior is need of an update. Only concern was we couldn't open any of the windows to get some fresh air. No air conditioning so likely would be quite hot on a warmer day. A bit pricey but nice to have a kitchen and sitting area.

Great little apartment with a full kitchen and bath. Perfect for exploring Ucluelet by foot. The bed was comfy but the pull out sofa was very uncomfortable. The second night I just left it as a sofa to sleep on. The staff were very friendly and even offered to still let us use the sauna upon check out. I would definitely consider staying here again.

Just OK
Although the room was clean and comfortable, the outside of the building looked a bit dumpy with rotting siding, no outside light fixtures and a shared, dirty bbq. A little bit of maintenence could go a long way. Considering the nightly rate, i would expect more

If you make judgments based on “looks”this is not the place for you. It could use a refresh. However, it “works” with the vibe of the area. After all, you are not in Manhattan. It is clean and extremely comfortable. Well laid out. Fully equipped. We would definitely stay here again

Not good for families with small children.
Not good if you have small children as they did not have top lock on the front door. So there was nothing stopping them from opening the door. Safety issue. Also the pool was not on site it was in a different hotel with not so good times.
