It was a last minute booking and we received a nice room on the back of the hotel that was clean , had good amenities and was spacious. The furniture and carpet were a little rundown and could generally use a refresh but all in all a very pleasant stay.

The room was very spacious and clean except for hand and fingerprints all over the windows. Staff were friendly and courteous. Breakfast area was very clean and well stocked at all times and they did not make you feel rushed to leave when breakfast was over. We enjoyed that coffee and tea was available in the lobby at all times.

Nothing great, but perfectly suitable for a budget stay. Only major complaint was the tiny shower, making it difficult to properly wash.

We had to leave a $200 damage deposit. I felt it was expensive for castlegar. Breakfast was nice. Strangest thing of all was signing a wa wavor for no open liquor on the property.

Everything was very good, but the beds were terrible, and we did not sleep well. Sleeping comfortably is the main purpose of a hotel stay and thus disappointed.If the beds were updated, I would definitely recommend the hotel .
