Comfy stay
Pros:

Super friendly staff. Huge beautiful room. I liked the split bathroom. Check in went very fast even though all the people from the ferry arrived at the same time. Nice breakfast. Liked the view.

Comfortable convenience in Prince Rupert
Pros:

The location was very central to downtown, with good proximity to restaurants, good parking, and good access to the highway. We especially appreciated that a) the room had a fridge, and b) because we were leaving so early, we had the option to request a take-away breakfast, which was delivered to our room, ready to go. We had a room with a "city view", so cannot comment on the harbour views ...

Quick and convenient
Pros:

Quick check-in and great location after 17 hour ferry trip from Port Hardy. Nice room. I was on the city side, but enjoyed the view from the café in the morning.

Cons:

They must have dialed down the water heater to save money, because the water doesn't really get hot.
