sam, 8-night trip

6/10 Good

The price was quite reasonable but the property was a bit rough especially on the outside and the common areas.
Deborah, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

It’s a case of you get what you pay for. It’s an older property and definitely showing its’ age. We loved the area and the downtown is trying to make a revival. The sculpture walk was fun and the museum was great. It was relatively clean, it had working AC, the shower/water pressure was good, the bed was fine and everything worked and we had a self serve continental breakfast. The property definitely has some quirks but we liked it. It has the potential to be a wonderful rejuvenated property. I hope it can get there!
mitch, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

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.

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

Great spot to stay at if you're in the Castlegar area. The owner/manager met me at check-in, and we had a great chat. The room was as advertised, and I enjoyed my short stay. I'd definitely recommend this place.

Nancy, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

The hotel is old, the operators have done a nice job updating the rooms and they are comfortable and clean. Helpful front desk. I would stay here again. Very reasonable room rate.
Brian, 1-night trip

2/10 Poor

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.
Diana, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

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
