A very basic room for one night. It provided a bed which was all I needed. I felt safe as a single traveler, however, walls were thin, and I could here snoring from the room above. Overall, it served my purpose, but would not stay there for any period of time.

We stayed on the top floor in Room 9. Small "living room" with a sofa bed, table, chair, lamp, wall-mounted tv, microwave, small refrigerator with freezer, counter, coffee maker, cups, coffee, sugar, coffee whitener (no spoons/stir sticks). The window does not open. Blind on window. The carpet in this area was very stained. It should have been vinyl/tile. Large closet with bedding for sofa bed, fan/iron/ironing board. Extremely large, tiled bathroom. Sink, counter, toilet, deep tub/shower (no grab bar). Usual toiletries/hairdryer. There was a partial wall, then the large bedroom with two, comfortable beds, dresser, wall-mounted tv, alarm clock, arm chair, side table with a lamp and WiFi booster. As this is at the back of the room, there was no window/airflow. Recently renovated. There is no reception area. Check-in/key pickup is at the Pub next door. There is no sign in the Pub, you have to flag down a server to get checked-in. No staff on-site and only saw a the housekeeper once during our stay. Had to ask her for more coffee/plastic glasses. There is no check-out, just a key drop-off box on the railing of the landing. The property sits kitty-corner to the water/harbour, so any view is a side-ways view, over the roof of the attached restaurant/parking lot and the adjacent pub. The area around the hotel is strewn with garbage/pizza boxes which was never picked up the entire 3 nights we were there. The hotel is still undergoing renovations.

Port McNeil was a very nice little town situated right on the ocean . It has great views of the harbour and you can walk to anywhere you might need to go . I would recommend staying at the Sportsmans Inn at the waterfront .

The Good, the Bad, the Ugly. One night was enougn.

We delayed booking until far too late and there were virtually no rooms available in Port Hardy so we looked at Port McNeil & found this hotel. The pictures looked nice, the rate was very good, the reviews were mixed... The Good: (1) Port McNeil is actually much more charming a village than Port Hardy. So for a night this was a great choice. We enjoyed the marina, the excellent Devil's Bath brew pub, and Gus's Grill (outstanding fresh seafood!) the restaurant associated with the hotel. (2) The after labour day rate was good. (3) The staff were friendly and nice. (4) Very comfortable bed. The BAD (1) Bait-and-switch. When we arrived, following directions, went to Gus's for check in. Were informed that the Sportsman's Inn we booked was closed for "refreshing" and instead we'd be staying at a different hotel on the other side of Gus's, which was NOTHING like the hotel we'd booked on line. The UGLY (1) The room we were given, #2, was on the ground floor, in a parking lot (not harbour view as booked). (2) The bathroom caulking was BLACK. (3) The side table, cheap pressboard, was pitted and marked (for $10 at a thrift store you could do better) (4) the microwave & coffee maker the cheapest I've ever seen. (5) There was no cultery, plates, nothing The table provided was wobbly. All in all, check before booking if you are REALLY getting the Sportsman's Inn or being shunted off to a dive with NO warning until arrival.

The room was ok but the carpets were very dirty! The bedroom had a claustophbic feel to it without a window to let in some natural light and ventilation. Also some plastic teaspoons and a sink in the "kitchen" area would be nice.

Unable to stay here as claustrophobic

We didn’t stay as the room had no windows in the sleeping area only in the kitchenette area which was separated by a wall & short corridor by the wardrobe We like fresh air when sleeping & it felt very claustrophobic for us. bed looked comfy & good amenities in kitchen area. Close to the water The reception staff were helpful in recommending elsewhere & we ate in the restaurant which was good.

Most horrible stay, not as advertised !

I have nothing good to say about this place. The room wasn't at the Sportsman Inn as per the name, but at the nearby McNeil's Inn on the other side of the pub where you do your check-in with servers who's duty is to simply give you a key. The room was extremely small, no chairs, no suitcase tray, all furniture was heavily damaged, the toilet wasn't screwed properly and had a small leak, the shower curtain smelled and was disgustingly stained. The windows go all the way to the floor so curtains must be kept closed as otherwise you are lying on your bed for the whoke parking lot to see. The staff told us they were completely full and could not help out. This left us with a sour taste about Port McNeil. We were on the road by 7:30am. The little café next door was vey nice.

Your standard motel. Clean, older furnishings. A good bit of noise transfer. Could hear people out front of the hotel and we were woken in the night by people walking in the room above us. Bed was clean and comfortable.
