Great location, close to skaha lake beach
The location is great. Park and Skaha lake beach are across the street. The hotel is outdated but it looks like they renovated certain things; stayed in unit 117, very spacious, full kitchen and one bedroom with 2 beds and 2 windows.

Great location next to park and beach
We upgraded to unit 117; it had a full kitchen, bedroom and a room with a sofa couch, table and 4 chairs ; the hotel is outdated on the outside but the inside, some things were renovated; the best is the proximity to the beach with a long path to go for a walk; at the end of the walk there is a restaurant/pub for meals

Very accommodating hotel. The room was comfortable and the hotel convenient. The area was lovely and we felt safe and welcomed. The only drawback was the other guests were kinda loud and since it was pleasant weather, they were outside kinda loud :). Additionally the walls were a bit thin. Overall though it was pleasant, clean and comfortable and good value for money.

We had a very nice room. The bathroom had a great makeover, but having a bit taller toilets would be a plus. The parking stalls need to be a little wider, very tight to get into. Over all, we had a great stay.

Awesome stay. Check in was very easy and staff were so friendly. Staff gave us helpful information on a printed sheet ie where restaurants were and where to find wifi details.
Extremely accommodating with giving us a lower ground floor room.
The shower was amazing. And the towels were so soft.
Definitely a place to stay longer than 1 night.

Great location! Great value!
Our stay was wonderful. Loved the Motel, Loved the location. We were however very disappointed that we booked a “lake view, GROUND floor room” 2 months in advance and at no time were notified that we would be 2nd floor. Front desk needs a better solution than “take it up with Expedia”
