One can find slapstick gifts, with a little tasteful humour to high end art. They have some beautiful Indigenous art from the Sliammon First Nation to Indigenous nations around Canada. There are some beautiful, tasteful and unique purchases to be found at Paperworks.

This is the most pathetic mall. Merchants are limited to what they can sell lest they compete…read moreagainst another store in the Mall. Lovely !!!! BTW... Most stores are owned by the Mall owner. No competition here. The 'flagship' is probably Wal-Mart, but this Wal-Mart is a very, very poor imitation. They can't sell food, and their selection is hit or miss..... Mostly miss. It's not like any Wal-Mart I've been in. I myself refuse to shop in this Wal-Mart. Powell Riverites have no choice but to go to this Mall, they have a captive audience and their service reflects it. Bad, bad place to go.

This review is for the inn, which is above the grocery store…read more The set-up was confusing at first because checking in for lodging (I'd made a last minute reservation via Expedia) is done at the grocery store cash register. There were no problems with the check in, but I was initially perplexed by the lack of a traditional inn office. I was given my keys by a nice young woman at the cash register, and told how to access the room. The lodging was good. Very modern and very clean. More like a nice apartment than a hotel or inn. Large and spacious; provides room for individual privacy if traveling with others. Nice kitchen with all needed pans, dishes, utensils and appliances. Very attractive kitchen cupboards and set up. Kitchen island makes food preparation easy. Our unit had two bathrooms and two bedrooms in a separate room with a closeable door. Washer and dryer and detergent. Balcony. No reading lights in the bedrooms or common areas, like the living room; only overhead lights throughout. Bring an itty-bitty book light, if you plan on doing any reading. Not enough furniture to lounge in (just one small couch and no comfy chairs). No chairs in the bedrooms. The store downstairs is very good and ridiculously convenient. Ample off-street parking for both the inn and the market. The inn is on Highway 101, which is good for the store below, but is not a particularly charming setting. The sound of passing vehicles is loud, occasionally very loud when souped up pick-ups are going up the hill. Speaking of noise, our neighbors were having a holiday party and we had no idea because the walls are so well insulated. Very nice, that.

Ever since the new ownership took over a year or two ago the service has really gone downhill. I…read morefeel bad for the staff. Never enough staff on the till. I was in the store today, there was one very young cashier, one person at the customer service desk (both were tied up with lengthy transactions) and a line up of at least 10 people. Management just walks on by without offering help. They (management) really needs to step up their customer service game. I finally asked the young lady on the till if she could call for more help. She did, which was great, but service really is horrible. Just seems to be another reason to shop online. Very sad.
