When I walked into the hotel after a long drive from Vancouver, I was greeted by a very cheerful Marie. I told her that we had a long drive and my husband was a bit cranky and asked if there's a chance of checking in early. Check-in time is 4 but she found us a room and we were able to check in right away at 2:30. Our double room was comfortable and clean.

Staff were especially friendly and polite. Other guests were checking in ahead of me in the line up were not polite to the staff but both staff members dealt with them so very friendly and politely. I was impressed.

The beds I think are doubles and hubby and I felt like we both could fall out of the bed. The pillows were lumpy and the optional breakfast seemed weak. The property was clean and staff were friendly!

A Perfect Experience.

A storm delayed check in but the front desk lady Joy, was super pleasant and professional and made everything a breeze when it all got up and running. She was the rainbow at the end of the storm and we got into our room with a complimentary breakfast upgrade. The room was perfect and comfortable, clean and a perfect nights stay. Max, our dog accompanied us and loved the treats they gave us- he never eats the treats so that too was a win. Thank you for an amazing stay. We will be back and I will recommend your hotel to everyone I know!

Our hotels.com reservation did not populate on the hotel’s system until after about 2 hours after our arrival. We gave up waiting & booked at the hotel. Luckily the hotel cancelled their reservation later & used our hotels.com reservation. It was a hassle. There is no number to call at hotels.com. The virtual assistant was not helpful.

Good clean place to spend the night. TV was a bit outdated but not a big issue. Fridge was warm when we entered the room and thermostat was set to a warm temp. All things that we were able to remedy quite easily.

The property was clean and the staff were friendly. Unfortunately, the A/C in the whole building and in the rooms was not able to keep up with the heatwave. The building was very warm which resulted in me feeling sick.

This hotel met my needs for my overnight stay. This is an older hotel and it shows in places BUT overall there are many signs of care and thoughtful renovations. My bed was comfortable with fresh white linens and quality pillows. The bathroom was completely renovated making it a very useable space complete with places to keep your items. It would be very comfortable for a longer stay. There are several businesses and fast food within a short walking distance. I had no misgivings about the area. I will stay again in the future.
