It's a bit (IMNSHO and FWIW) of a conundrum re: Motels. Later in the summer (June onward) there are more options: B&B's open up, more "lodges" or motels open up, etc.....but there are more travelers.
Strictly FWIW, it seems to me that outside of the larger spots (Dawson Creek, Whitehorse to pick a couple) one is likely to find better / nicer accommodations at a B&B / small lodge than at the advertised "motels".
If one is driving a vehicle (i.e. not RV'ng), prior to mid-June, I'd suggest determining where you want to get to for the day by Noon, and pick / call a place by 3:00. Mid-June or after, I'd make the determination and the call the night before. With a vehicle and wanting to motel it, one is a bit more limited (i.e. need to go from town to town) than with an RV. So the location of the "towns" may determine how far you go on any given day and that in turn determines where to look for overnight lodging.
