Best Western Cowichan Valley Inn
The only issue was the shower curtain was not wide enough so after a shower, there was a pool of water on the floor. Room was clean, quiet, food was good.

The Cottages on Salt Spring Island
Coffee make is tiny and the filters were not the right size so it was a slow messy wait but other than that, cozy beds and good space!
