The room was large, clean with the basic amenities. The desk staff were polite and courteous. No air conditioning. The first night there was a disturbance in the room above. Police and ambulance on scene for about 4 hours. I believe this hotel has low income housing rooms sponsored by the government. It’s getting pricy for what you get. Parking is street only.

Nice hotel - great breakfast - helpful kind staff. Hotel says renovated but the outside curb appeal is a bit rough but the rooms inside themselves are clean and somewhat new with neutral smell - nice view - and super great to open the balcony doors to let sea breeze in. Some noise from the street level (pedestrian walk beeps) good black out curtains. Nice size tub. Noise level in the hotel was minimal - the elevators worked well. The breakfast buffet was well stocked and had a lot of options with helpful servers. Parking is a bit of a wildcard but we always found somewhere. Safe area to walk around downtown for dinner etc.

Disliked: Staff & service, property conditions & facilities
Staff quality is mixed - the breakfast staff was great (the breakfast wasn't bad either) but check in was chaotic. The room was tired with clanking plumbing, uncontrollable heating and sporadic hot water. Finally, if there is a nice part of Prince Rupert, this hotel certainly isn't in it. I won't stay there again. Caveat emptor.

We stayed at the Highliner after we were told the building had been renovated. Construction could still be heard late into the evening. We checked in and the windows looked like they had been cleaned with a cloth. The floors were quite dirty and neither of the room cards worked for the door. There is no AC in the building which was a bummer. Beds are very firm, old, and thin enough you could feel the springs through them. We would not stay here again

First day there trapped in the elevator for 5 minutes and the cleaning staff left someone else's used Gatorade bottle in our room also there was 3 of us in the room and I had to go down twice for extra towels. It was street parking and supposedly property parking which I found out later on the second day it was out back beside the old RCMP Building But I was never told this at the start.
