I used to stay here all the time on sledding trips and it was decent. The rooms are filthy, the tub did not drain. I would spend the extra money and stay in one of the newer hotels in revelstoke!

We thoughtvwe booked into a Sandman, but a motel beside the Sandman . It would have been fine if thats what i paid for, but the cost of the room was $130.plus tax. I would not have paid more than $60 gor what we had.

You know what I like about this hotel? Absolutely nothing. We got into town late and we were thrilled to get a chance to soak in the hot tub (the main reason we booked the hotel). We arrive, and guess what? The hot tub is “under construction” just as it was over a year ago when I last stayed here. There are two pools/hot tubs in the hotel and they are suspiciously both under construction at the same time. I put on my Nancy Drew hat and decided to do some investigating. I found my way into the court yard and looked through the window into one of the pools. If this pool is under construction, kudos to the tradesman, they pulled off an impeccable 1970’s themed renovation! This freshly renovated pool could easily fool someone into thinking it was built in 1969 without a lick of maintenance since! The hotel smells like an early Las Vegas strip joint. The perfect blend of urine and cheap cigarettes. The tv didn’t work, so I spent my hot tub-free evening staring at the wall, doing my best to keep the dark thoughts from creeping into my mind. When I rolled over in my 3’ wide “queen bed” I fell out, hit my head. Perfect, now I’m angry AND severely concussed. Next time I stay here, it will be my last….. day on earth.

I wanted a hot tub. A pool and a hot tub were the filters i used to select my hotel. Of course the pool and hot tub are closed. Have been closed for 2 years according the the check in person they will open on saturday and he will use it before any guests do. Very upset that they were listed as having a pool without having one.

The property and room were generally acceptable except: 1. The bathroom sink was plugged and did not drain within acceptable limits. Maintenance was contacted and the sink was plundered, but that did not solve the problem. Maintenance indicated that they would fix the problem the next day, but the sink was still plugged when we returned to the room. 2. The Wifi was very intermittent. I had to revert to 4G in order to complete my wifi assignments. It should be seamless at a well established motel like this.

property was dated with some areas showing excess wear and the cleanliness could have been better. I had a room with 2 double beds where one bed was several inches shorer tha the other bed with a worn matress. The hotel pool and hot tub were not available due to repair and renovation. The hotel was quite expensive without amenities; definitely not worth the price!

It was reasonably clean, and the room was spacious. The staff were very helpful. However…….we had paid for a unit with a kitchen - but the facilities that made up the ‘kitchen’ were way below what was expected. No toaster, no utensils to wash dishes, no oven. A portable hot plate was not trusted for use. When asked, the staff helpfully provided us a toaster and a washing up brush, but these were basics that should have been there. Bathroom tiny - could not shut the door if person sitting in the loo - have to sit first! The fridge was minute - and had no freezer or icebox - so we were able to use the staff fridge instead. No lift - lugging our bags and ski gear up to the first floor room was a killer. So….. won’t be back again.
