We stayed here during the BC Bike Race (2026) and couldn't have been happier. The staff were courteous and helpful; our main floor room made for easy access, parking was easy, and there was a hose in the lot to clean the bike before moving it indoors. The bedding in the room was amazing - we slept so well - and the room was clean, as was the entire property. We took advantage of the hotel breakfast each morning, and it was excellent. The restaurant where the breakfast was served was wonderfully staffed and we ate dinner there twice as well - the menu, meals and service were top notch. Will look to stay here again next time we are in town!
