Awesome staff!! :) This motel used to be a dump, unsafe, and I normally wouldn’t stay here, however, the new owners that took over just over a year ago, have made it so much better! Rooms have been renovated & look great. The beds are comfortable. There is a security gate from 12am to 5am to block anyone from going in or out of the property (they will open it if you need to leave) I travel alone and my last THREE trips I have made to the Cowichan Valley, I have stayed here. HIGHLY recommend 😁

I booked this motel at rather the last moment given that every Canadian in the country is vacationing on Vancouver island this year (summer 2025). Duncan doesn’t have a lot of choices and this is all I could find. It was clean and fairly well appointed but the property overall is older and a little tired looking. It’s off the main highway but still close to everything. There is a security gate that closes the property off at midnight every day. Great security but inconvenient if you have to come and go mate at night. Overall 3-4/5

The room I reserved had kitchen and a full size refrigerator which was excellent. However this room was divided into two sections with a bed in each section. There was only one air conditioner in one section, so the other section was so hot to sleep.

We found this a nice place to stay. Older motel that has had upgrades. Clean and the staff were really nice. Cat friendly which is important to us. Good place to stay in Duncan. We would certainly return.

Older unit that appears to have had renovations and in older part of town. New security gate has been installed, but didn’t feel any security risks while renting there. Pretty quiet during our stay.

While staff was friendly and the room itself clean, our neighbors were smokers. And because there are chairs with ashtrays set up between each room, they smoked right outside our door which leaked into the room. I'm allergic to smoke and it triggered my asthma. Plus, the "hallway/balcony" light pointed directly into the bedroom all night. And the curtains did nothing to make it dark.

Didn't look at all like the photos

Pros: cheap, comfy bed, stable wifi, blackout/darkening curtains, window in the bathroom, friendly service, parking right outside the window. Cons: dirty fridge, no decor/atmosphere, bathroom fan didn't work, no lamp shades just bulbs, tv remote had dead, crusty batteries, loud creepy addict-type people being loud all night who live at the motel, can't have the curtains open because said people will see into the room and don't want to see them either. Was expecting something completely different from the photos. False advertising.
