We love the Arbutus Inn! It's one of our favorite places to stay. I like it because it is very safe and nice for a good price. It's also perfect because it's so close to downtown. And unfortunately, I don't know his name, but the man who is the afternoon check-in is always the nicest and most pleasant and welcoming.

This hotel is under renovations. They are doing a nice job. Rooms are clean, beds comfy and location is within walking distance to downtown with free parking. Tim Hortons a short walk away. Will return, thank you so much for a enjoyable stay.
