About 8 years ago I spent a couple of days at the Anco, back when the rates were $49 per night. It's conveniently close to downtown Courtenay and kept very clean. The bathroom is the smallest one I've ever seen and the bed was very very firm. Needless to say, I didn't get much sleep after tossing and turning all... More

Hi. Just want to say I've stayed there three or so times, its very clean, all the basics, good for sleeping and small food preparations. Well lighted free parking and 24 hour people in the office. Will be staying there again. Only wish the prices wouldn't keep going up! Close to the Whistle stop Pub too. :) Had a problem... More

It's a motel with reasonable rates, not the Ritz. That being said, the staff were all very friendly, the rooms were clean and comfortable. We didn't use the pool but the high-speed wireless internet was nice and the kitchenette was clean and convenient (if a tiny bit cramped). We spent four nights there and when my 5 month old daughter... More

Had a 1 or 2 night say here each of the last 3 years. The front desk is consistently helpful, the rooms are clean, the beds are comfortable and the location is right on the main route. You can also get rooms with a mini kitchen. The only in-room issue we find is the lack of power outlets, which is... More

Checking in, we were offered the choice of recently renovated rooms at the rear of the motel, or standard rooms at the front. We selected a "deluxe" room at the rear, and it was very pleasant and quiet, being away from the main road. The room was clean and well maintained with a comfortable bed, and provided very good value.... More

We were travelling to Courtenay for a wedding in Sept. 09 and needed a cheap, nice place to stay. This place was great. It was clean, quiet and right on the main road into the city. There were several restaurants along the road and the staff were very helpful. We didn't get to use the pool because we were too... More

Usually when we go on a trip we book ahead at a chain hotel. This time we decided to 'wing it'. We asked two seperate people where a good place to stay was, and both recommended Anco. The property is very well maintained, everything freshly painted and repaired. The pool looked inviting, although we did not indulge. The reception area... More

We pitched up on the advice of the Lonely Planet and it was fine for one night. Room had space and was clean (in de-luxe wing). Service friendly even when we locked ourselves out.
