An OK place for an overbite while travelling. Room decor was dated. Problem with electrical connections as some plug ins did not work. Host was quite pleasant and wanted to ensure we had what we needed

Simplicity at its best🙏

For starters, the couple who currently owns it are super friendly and make you feel so welcomed. The rooms are a bit outdated, but they keep a very good job at keeping it clean and there's a working a c and other appliances. One recommendation is to bring your own pillow, if you're like me and like a thicker pillow what they will give you extra ones if needed. I also enjoyed that it's really close to all the amenities and to the thompson river university. Great location.

The owner/operator went above and beyond to accommodate my needs. Other hotels in area would not. Very friendly and yes it is an older hotel but the price was very reasonable and all I needed was a place to sleep.

View from room was nice. Too much junk around property from full time users. Couldn't pin point it but a loud noise verbrated room which woke me up during the night a couple of times. Had manager in room to listen to noise. Said was going to look into it but we left before hearing outcome. Will not be staying there again on chance the noise not located and fixed.

Manager/owner was friendly and did his best to be helpful but the place is a dump. Crackheads everywhere. Do not recommend unless in a real pickle. We left early and got a different hotel.
