It is a classic old school hotel ...
sam, 8-night trip

10/10 Excellent

It is an older place, however it has all the amenities. The owner/host was delightful and works really hard to maintain the building, keep it clean and offer accommodations to travellers. Overall, the great customer service and wonderful people made me return. She was very accommodating - i arrived very early and she ensured I would be able to get in fast. Really lovely.
Cory, 1-night trip

6/10 Okay

The property was fine for myself, not so good for my wife, it was small, but did what it needed to do.
Kelly, 1-night trip

2/10 Terrible

Photos online very misleading. Building was charming but very old. No elevator, no AC in the room - temps were in the 30s, bed very soft. Owner very nice but i would not reccomend a stay there at the price charged
Lori, 1-night trip

2/10 Terrible

I had to cancel the reservation because the place was unsafe, dirty and dark, nobody was at the front desk to talk when I arrived. And it looked scary to go around. I looks like a shelter, not like a hotel at all. I was so disappointed, and their add was misleading. I called to Expedia to cancel this reservation, I hope the did it.

Perfect for the price

Extremely kind and approachable staff. Comfortable beds. Very good value for the price. Only nitpick is that the water pressure in the shower was rather weak

10/10 Excellent

For a older building it wasok, the beds were very comfortable. It was one of the better night sleeps I had in a motel.
Darryl, 1-night trip

8/10 Good

Was clean quit and affordable. Staff was friendly
Todd, 1-night trip

6/10 Okay

Really friendly service but no breakfast like mentioned when booking. No milk for coffee on the first day. Pretty old building so we could hear people walking above us a few times. Is that why the tv was black and white? Also the hot water tank is probably connected with other units cause we were losing hot water while showering in the morning. And my partner used the toilet when i was in the shower and i almost got boiled. Internet work on phones but not on laptop. Beds were very comfy tho.
Maxim, 2-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Just the nicest people, right downtown so close to everything. Cool property, i love the vibe. Very clean.
Desiree, 1-night trip

6/10 Okay

Nice Folks, quiet Stay but needs major Reno.

The people who worked there were lovely and helpful the the hotel needs to be updated and hopefully they will do so as they can afford to but the actual room was clean and tidy and the the mattress was comfortable. And it was $40 a night cheaper than anything else. The hotel was in the old downtown core of Castlegar and had several good restaurants and a pharmacy almost next door. Even though it was “downtown” it was really quite quiet. I would stay again.
Roberta, 4-night trip

6/10 Okay

The property is very dated. The air-conditioning was not sufficient for the room. The room was clean and staff very friendly.
Deb, 1-night trip

Fantastic little hotel

Charming little hotel in the heart of Castlegar. The owner greeted me and got me checked in. She was very nice and personable. She offered me croissants and other baked goods for breakfast. I wish I had spent more than one night.
Antony, 1-night trip

6/10 Okay

Wasn’t so much a hotel as a room for rent.
