This is a small B&B with four rooms in Tofino, so very convenient for shops, restaurants and excursions for whale and bear watching. But, the rooms are small and rather basic with very cramped bathrooms. The bedding was horrible - it appeared to be rather old and was not ironed so looked shabby. The rooms are not cleaned and towels are not changed unless you ask. There are no tea/coffee facilities in the rooms and no kitchen available - only a water cooler in the lounge that also dispenses hot water, plus a supply of tea bags and a few cups, but not enough for the number of potential guests, and no milk or sugar. The TV in the bedroom was small and old and the carpet was cheap and badly fitted with frayed edges showing. The rooms have partition walls and you can hear anyone who is talking in the lounge/dining area in the bedrooms upstairs. The B&B's website describes the view from one of the rooms as being of a lush green garden - in fact it is a small yard covered in gravel that is deeply uninspiring and the front of the house looks a bit neglected. But, Dorothy who lives on-site and prepares the continental breakfast (no cooked breakfast available) is really nice - very friendly and informative about the beaches, the weather etc. The breakfast, although limited, is good with a different home-baked treat each day, along with croissants, fresh fruit, juice, coffee, yoghourt and cereal and bread to toast as you want. Everyone sits at one table for breakfast which is at 8.30am, so you have to be prepared to talk to other people. Dorothy is really flexible about early breakfasts if you are going out on a trip, for example whale or bear watching, or you just need to leave early. The lounge is roomy and comfortable and is geared towards younger guests with a large TV and games consoles - and it has a good view of the sea. There are two computers with free internet access for guests that were very useful and a very small fridge that guests share.
