A great highway stop while travelling into Salmon Arm, best price for the best quality compared to other local establishments. Very pleasant greeting, comfortable and cozy room in the back (not facing the highway!) and great amenities on offer (tv, wifi, coffee). Great for an overnight where we needed to start fresh early the next day!

Not the quietest of places next to the highway, but spectacularly clean! Great value for an overnighter or two. Staff were pleasant and helpful. I appreciated the hardwood floor as opposed to a carpet. It looked well maintained! I will recommend this place to others.

Actually a very nice place. Clean, well maintained and quiet. The only reason I didn't give it a 5/5 rating is because it is somewhat isolated. Not much around in the way of services.

Great small basic motel. Very clean, staff was friendly and helpful, and the room was surprisingly big! Door automatically locks when closed, which made me feel safer as a woman.

Little bit far away from town. The room is clean but lack of a sink in the dining area. No thermostat in the room. Guests can’t control room temperature. Staff is kind.
