checkin was a bit of a hassle as no one was there. phoned and no one answered. i was there early, however, and I knew that but I was hoping for early check-in or at least to drop some stuff off before visiting a friend further into town. no ice machine, one light was out, jeez maybe i should have given it a 2.

No a/c so I appreciated the fan.. bed wasn’t very comfy..the fridge froze my milk(may be an operator problem) and I couldn’t figure out how to work the tv(again may be an operator problem)

I liked everything about the property-room, bed, bathroom, grounds and friendly owner. I don't like Google telling people that this fine establishment is "permanently closed". Marland Motel is very much open for business.

stunk like cigarette smoke and had very old dirty looking furniture

Okay, lots of poor reviews, so perhaps I'm being a little too generous, but this place wasn't terrible. Certainly dated, but I think that's what to expect at that price point. My room was clean, heater worked, television, WiFi, bathroom was full of necessaties. Lady at front office was very pleasant. Its a motel, not a resort.

The experience was ok - service, state of the room, were ok, nothing spectacular or special.

Very old and very uninviting No one in the office to check us in Had to knock on someone else’s door to find out where the owner was and she phoned her to tell her we were there Some water issue in the bathroom Floor was wet Bedspreads appeared old and needed a good cleaning as did the rug Would not stay here again and would not recommend any one else to

I am sorry that my phone is not working while I'm in Canada, and the office at the Marland is not open. There is a faded note with phone number to call upon arrival. The office has posted signs regarding the COVID pandemic to wear mask and to call rather than an open office. I felt a bit desperate because my phone doesnt work, so I tried knocking and I walked around the office to see if I could find anyone home. It looks unlived in and unkempt. No one was there. THere is a resident in one or two of the rooms. I innerrupted one of them and they were generous, and said they would call the office people for me and "they will be right up". As I waited for a short time, 10 or 15 minutes, I began to feel uncomfortable about the combination of a dirty office with messages that apear old, no one on site office not attended as the expedia site advertisment says, residents living there but apears to be no guests, I felt a vibe that said I would not feel comfortable sleeping and staying there. And so I left, knowing I can not get refund. I felt better as soon as I drove away. I went to tourist visitor site in Powell River and was directed to a safe, clean and quiet place for same price I paid for Marland.

Needed to be cleaned and updated. Lot of little things needed attention. I was a maintenance supervisor for a large hotel in Victoria and know what is exceptable and what is not.

Good value for the price. No problems. Clean.

You get what you park for. Reasonable space for the price but still felt a bit over priced.

Rooms we very dated. Like 1979 stained flower couchs. Most bed matresses are min 20 years old, my friends room had origal bed spreads from the 70s,all furnature was stained old sagging and dirty, even the $2 rubber bath mat was atlest 15 years old stained yellow cracked with age and full of black mould..the sponge provided to clean ur dishes was horrrific, old musty and again doller store cheap crap. I paid extra for the family suite. 179.00 then she chargrd me $10 each extra person there was 4 of us and and $12 per night per dog x3 totaling close to 300 per night. This was absoluty not worth it. Not even close to that amount. Sadly we booked 2 weeks in advance and all other hotels we sold out leaving us trapped to stay here. Please.read the reviews and choose wisely. Wish i could attach photos.

Decent enough place. The lady who runs thr joint was super nice. But it needs some love. Also needs AC. Holy bajeebus. Either sweat your butt off with the windows closed, or keep em open and smell the weed the downstairs customers are smoking.

Manager Jenny was great and friendly

Marginal accommodation.

The kitchen was nice to have although not equipped very well. Upon checkin I informed them that we would not be staying all 3 nights. I understood we could not cancel the 3 night but was not expecting to be charged the pet fee for the night we were not there. The staff were friendly but often not available

Was happy to find a place last minute to rest our heads

Jenny is lovely but the place is dirty, the fan is noisy, no paper towels or Kleenex but there are 2 bath towels. We just need a place to sleep and keep our food cold. This place fits the bill but we are only here for 12 hours. Expensive for what you get.

Clean, friendly, no frills motel. Glad places like this exist. Just needed a place to sleep comfortably without breaking the bank. Very satisfied.

For only a small amount more you can have much higher quality finish and amenities in this area. Had a nice big property which was good for our dogs.

Booked 2 months in advance, 2 queen bed room at $75 per night. When we arrived we received a room with a double and a twin at $125 per night. Very disappointing to spend an extra $100 for the 2 nights we stayed. If I had know the price was going to be more we would have stayed somewhere else. We’ve stayed at this motel 3 years ago and it’s gotten quite rundown, at least the room we had was.

The place is old and run out; the bathroom door have a huge hole. I have to use my tools to fix the table that was failing apart. The main door to the street has only one of the privacy locks and none of the pictures on EXPEDIA reflect the real property. I decide to leave the first day and I call the manager at 8 AM (Check out is at 11 am) I was told That i have to pay for the whole stay (12 days). I asked for a copy of the Motel Policies and the Manager was just making up rules on the spot (By the way, if you dont clean up the place after you leave is a $50 Dollar penalty). I asked for help to EXPEDIA and the person I spoke agree with the Manager, even the only rule for cancelation apply to a no Show Guest. I was told that I was being given a break and I have to pay or stay 48 Hours but beacuse it was Monday I already got charge the night (even still hours away for the check out of the 1st night) So the choice was to stay or pay 72 hours or pay the 12 dyas, Also the Manager already charge the whole stay the first day, no pending but charge to the credit card. A few more things about the room. No coffee maker machine, not hair dryer; everytime I use the hot water I was afeaid the pipes will explote as they make so loud noise. The bedding smell musky and even the towels are old. I asked for a rag for the kitchen and I got one full of hair and smell bad , I had to buy supplies from the store to make the stay bearable. I was surplrise of the lack of help from Expedia,

The price is right for a quick stop. If staying for longer than 1 night, bring your own pillows. I can do a maximum of 1 night on a flat pillow. The room was clean, but dated. Screens for the back windows would be appreciated. A coffee pot (1 instant coffee packet was provided) would also be nice. Jenny was friendly and accommodating.

the place was clean and they try hard with the place but it needs to be update and a face lift is needed.

Very worst staff bakwas hotel

Definitely not as bad as other reviewers say. Sure it’s dated but everything worked and it was clean.

The lady who checked us in was very friendly and brought us extra towels etc because we are a family of 4. We had a late check in at 10pm too. The room was good and clean considering it's the cheapest place to stay.

It was what I wanted. A low cost motel. That was clean, warm. And we had good service. I was very happily with our one night stay

Quiet, clean and corny decoration. Nice host and okay value for money.

place was locked up & very shabby & rundown. We didn't stay

Nice place to stay , Staff was very helpfull .

Room was not clean and had a weird smell
