I have repeatedly stayed at this motel and the management is always very accommodating to any request I have.
The rates are affordable, the rooms are clean and functional.
It is centrally located and within a 20-minute walk of Cow Bay of the Prince Rupert Harbour as well as a 15-minute walk to the business section of Prince Rupert. McDonalds restaurant is located next door to the motel. There is also a foot trail through McClymont Park, very close to the motel, that follows Hays Creek through old growth forest to a road that provides access to the waterfront at Rushbrook Harbour and Cow Bay. The Oldfield Fish Hatchery is also a short walk from the Civic Complex by way of the access road to Mount Hays.
The Civic Complex that houses the swimming pool and arena are across Highway 16 from the motel, as is the Lester Centre for the Arts. There is also bus service with stops very close to the motel. Crossing Highway 16 is done with ease since there is an underpass for this purpose as well as it serves as a bridge over Hays Creek.
This motel should be the traveller's first consideration when planning a trip to Prince Rupert.
