Nice landscaping and connected to Smittys for food take out or delivery. Cozy and clean. Like the soap/shampoo dispensers. On a busy road but sleeping wasn’t a problem. Did hear neighbors at 6:30am. Turned off AC. Too cold. Friendly staff. Did have to ask for towels.

The property is owned by a friendly couple, room is cleaner than many 4 or even 5 stars hotel. The air-conditioning is very quiet and I couldn’t hear any noise overnight, Ricky’s is right next door and they do room service so which is a great option since there’s not a lot restaurants around. We would definitely stay there again if we go to Parksville again.

The Rosebud could not have been better.
This motel is great value for money. The managers were very friendly, helpful and took care of our every need. This is not a fancy resort hotel but a simple bed to lay your head when on the road. Quiet and comfortable. The kitchen had everything we needed and was perfect. We would be happy to stay here again!
