The charm of the Driftwood Lodge is truly its warm, inviting atmosphere, making it a cozy sanctuary to return to after sightseeing. The staff's attentiveness felt like being wrapped in a warm quilt on a chilly day.
Easier access for mobility-impaired guests would be appreciated.

We had a lovely time at the hotel. The location was perfect for our family adventures, allowing us to head out for whale-watching while being close to restaurants. The room was spacious enough for the kids to play around, and I appreciated the shuttle service from the airport. Pam the driver even gave us some great tips during our ride!
In my wife’s opinion, the shower pressure could be stronger, especially for a family with kids who enjoy taking long showers.

Charming, Convenient, Comfortable
My stay in the One-Bedroom Apartment was delightful! With a kitchenette, I could whip up my meals while enjoying the cozy, homey vibe of the space. Bonus? The Sandpiper Café next door served the biggest and tastiest breakfast to fuel my adventures! #CozyKitchenette #DeliciousBreakfast

missingWrote a review on 02 Augcafé mealscentral attractionsproximity optionsair conditioning lack
The Sandpiper Café next door offers generous meals at reasonable prices, perfect for fueling up before adventures. Its location provides easy access to downtown attractions, allowing for quick trips to the Humpback Statue and opportunities for seal watching just a block away.
The lack of air conditioning makes for uncomfortably hot rooms, especially with no option for airflow apart from opening windows that lack screens. My stay was hampered by a non-functioning TV and ice maker, leading to trips next door for ice. The kitchenette room's layout felt cramped, and the bathroom's design led to water pooling on the floor with a small exhaust fan struggling to keep up. Noise from neighboring units was noticeable at night, impacting the overall comfort. Overall, while some amenities were adequate, many aspects felt below expectations for the price.

The location is prime, right next to downtown and a grocery store, making it convenient for most needs. The breakfast cafe on-site offers good options, and the shared refrigerator is a nice touch. However, the rooms are dated, with some lacking windows and proper air conditioning, leading to uncomfortable nights. Noise from the upper floors can disrupt sleep, and the laundry facilities had limited functionality due to some machines being out of order.

Comfortable Stay with Room for Improvement
Stayed for two nights and enjoyed the comfortable bed and great linens. The free airport shuttle was a convenient bonus, and we appreciated the nice toiletries. However, the check-in process was slow, and the noise levels from nearby rooms were unsettling. Request a room away from shared walls for a quieter stay.
