"We enjoyed our stay there, close to everything. The room was clean and a very firm mattress. The negative thing for us was being in our 80’s that there was no elevator. The cafe next door had excellent coffee and muffins."

10/10 Excellent
"The room was nice and clean. We had a king bed. The pillows were just right. Staff especially the front desk were friendly and even changed our room from a pet friendly room to a non pet friendly room. We were a bit early but were able to check in early. The bathroom was clean and sticked with enough towels, toilet paper and free toiletries. The hotel is conveniently located near shops and restaurants. It was relatively quiet even though near a main street in Castlegar. The free breakfast was a nice feature. It included a waffle station, hard boiled eggs, yogurt, breads, cereals, fruit, coffee, and juice. The small thing was the pool was closed temporarily as it was under maintenance."
