What a great "home away from home." We stayed a week and we would go again! We mostly ate at our place because it was so easy to do. The grounds are very pretty and the staff/owners are very nice and friendly! More

Great little motel. Right on the highway to the West Coast of Vancouver Island. Pet friendly and all. Perfect place to break up the trip from the ferry to the island and travel to the West Coast. More

My parents who are in their late 80's stayed in this motel for 4 nights in September...they had a suite with queen bed, full kitchen. The room was lovely, they said the bed was great, and they loved the place. More

The room has some special amenities that make a traveler feel really welcomed. Five pillows on the bed! I didn't have to open drawers and look through closets... A refrigerator actually meant for guest use. A make-up remover cloth (not that I wear make-up but that was special!) There is plenty of light and accessible plugs. A table that can... More

The Somass Motel & RV is a great place to stay! Everything here is immaculate: very attractive cottage-style rooms/suites, and RV area, with flowers everywhere, some outdoor space to enjoy and an inviting outdoor pool. And all at reasonable rates. But what makes the Somass Motel very special is the excellent customer service. This service was very evident even before... More

They accommodated every request we had. Our two bedroom unit had the bedrooms attached with the back bedroom having to walk through the... More

Why would you want to stay anywhere else? We loved everything about the Somass Motel - its warm welcome, its location, its facilities, the room, the price... We chose the motel for our too-short, two-night stay based on TripAdvisor's ratings, and aren't we glad we did! Online reservation was easy and the response was quick and efficient. Some seven or...
