Great experience with the staff.

Excellent customer service. The room is big and the bed is comfy. It smells unfortunately musty. The shower has a nasty leak and soaked the bathroom. I would still stay here again. Close to the ocean. The staff is accommodating and kind.

We booked for an extra guest fee and as we got to the hotel they denied that the amount of people we had was a fire hazard to the room even though it stated it was for 5 people. The staff were rude and continued to charge us extra fees later on saying they would refund but did not. We had no choice but to get another room except they gave us a rate that was unacceptable. My kids had to find another hotel an hour away late at night. We flew to Vancouver as a family and didn’t know our way around. We felt very disappointed and disrespected in our stay. Rude staff members. Please do not stay here.

The bar and restaurant that are listed in the details are closed permanently. The rooms are tiny and the walls are thin. You can hear everyone else opening and closing their doors. I got a parking ticket the first day I was there, even though I registered my vehicle with the hotel. The paint was peeling in the bathroom.

We really enjoyed our stay in this old hotel that has an interesting character! There is no "Buck and Ear" lounge, however. It is permanently closed. There is a cafe right beside the "lobby". The lobby is a wee hallway with vending machines and the stairs to the rooms. There front desk is a window and the liquour store is the other side of the window! You even have a direct line, in your room, to the liquour store! Too cute. Clean, not so quiet, but that was okay. On a busy corner for a small town in the height of tourist season. Next to all you want to see for an historic fishing village.

Incompetent management

Called twice the day before about late check ins, only got the answering machine. Left two messages. Emailed the property using the email address on their website two days before, no response. Sign at the door said front desk open until 11pm. Got to the property at 11:06pm. No phone number on the door to call, no help whatsoever from hotels.ca. had to book something in Richmond last minute at ridiculously high rates. Extremely angry.

Our stay at the Steveston Hotel was very comfortable, with everything we could ask for provided. While there was no ice machine, we were encouraged by a member of housekeeping to ask for ice at the attached liquor store, where ice was given happily. The TV was also out-of-date and low-resolution. As other reviews indicate, the facilities are somewhat vintage and worn but the comfort and security provided was outstanding. One must understand that this is an historic building which comes with its own limitations. We stayed in the jacuzzi room for a bit of extra luxury; it was roomy and comfortable. Those booking should be aware that there is a full flight of stairs and no elevator due to the hotel's heritage status. We had breakfast at the café, which was lovely, as well. The ambience of the historic fishing village surrounding the hotel is unmatched. I would recommend a stay here.

Great price. Decent room. But outdated and the parking lot and areas around the hotel are covered in litter. Also got a parking ticket even tho registered license plate with hotel (hotel said it would get taken care of). Keys in doors didn’t always work. Location was amazing.
