This property was great unless you have kids. We had a 2y/o and everyone there was up at 4am yelling and stomping around and the floors were paper thin. The people above us woke up fighting and then loud trucks at 5am it was awful. But very clean hotel.

Enjoyed our visit. Beautiful sunrise, fun to watch the fishing boats come and go. We stopped here as a midway point for exploring the peninsula. Value was good, we had a great room upstairs at the end facing marina. Kitchenette that we forgot to prep to use. A fishing town, so not fancy but was comfortable, clean and friendly.

Very clean & cozy
I was hesitant when we pulled up to the property. It's older and it a little fishing bay. But the room was VERY clean, and I am picky about cleanliness. It's older, so there is rust and weird caulk in places but it was so clean. It is also really cozy. I wanted to go somewhere else with a bigger bed for me, my husband, but it was fine. The TV is in the kitchen, so no watching TV in bed, but it was really nice to be at a place that felt comfy. I would stay here again.

Property is set in a quaint town with very nice and hospitable people. The view from our unit was spectacular. Looking at the water across to Canada and fishing boats on the water was a very scenic view.

This is a basic hotel with nothing fancy. Our double-bed room had a kitchenette, breakfast table and very small shower. It is in a very small fishing village.

This is basically a fishing community this time of year. Lodging was right at the docks and had a rustic feel of an authentic fishing village. Liked see the boats come and go

Really impressed with this little property. Pros: - Room had everything we needed. - Includes a little kitchen with dishes and everything. I can see this being a little home away from home for fishermen or others. - Great price. - Location was perfect for what we needed for a road trip through the Olympic Penisula - centrally located. Cons: - It got really hot in the room. We kept all the windows open in the room and just kept our curtains closed the entire time. That made it better but still quite toasty. - No tub, just a shower - The shower also had a leaky faucet so we had to be creative with how to deal with the drippy drippy water noise.

We enjoyed our night there, Sekiu was a very cute little town and the marina was nice too. For what we paid, we wished the kitchen would have been slightly more equipped (bigger bowls, larger pots, drying rack for the dishes). The room had a light musty smell, maybe airing it out from time to time would help, but maybe that is just part of being located 50 foot from the sea. The staff was very nice and checkin was easy. Overall, would have no problem recommending this motel for a short stay.
