A solid value property in a central location. Let down by parking that feels unsafe and exposed.
Pros:

Great location. Easy to access. Excellent value.

Cons:

Unfortunately the car parking area isn’t secure and obviously drugged up, displaced individuals were about. Once just a few meters from my parked car under the hotel a poor man was slumped over - out of his mind - staring at me as I returned to my parked car.

It didn’t feel safe for sure and I’m glad my wife and kids weren’t with me.

When I I asked hotel staff if it is safe to park they just said “we have cameras”.

The parking area is also filthy to add to the atmosphere.

The parking is definitely a concern and drags down the property.

Nice place to stay but check the shampoo bottles before using the shower
Pros:

Room was spacious and very modern

Cons:

They have shampoo and conditionner in wall mounted bottles and conditionner bottle was empty. Its not a good situation to be in. Obviously housekeepers aee not paying attention. They should use clear bottles.

Convenient central spot to stop for the night in Kamloops
Pros:

Central downtown location, clean room & bathroom, friendly staff, convenient free parking

Cons:

Hot tub was down for maintenance - on a lengthy ski trip, I appreciate a nice soak! Parking a bit constrained for full size pickup, as there were a lot of large vehicles this night, the lot has narrow aisles and hotel guests are restricted to the western half

Cons:

We booked this hotel for our family because it had a pool. The pool was the first photo used on the listing, the first amenity listed, and the fort thing in the written description. As soon as we checked in we asked what time the pool was open until, only to be told the pool was out of service. It wasn't until we were leaving that a staff member told us they could have offered us passes to a local public pool, but at this point we were needing to go home. It really spoiled our visit just sitting around a hotel room in winter with our child, after them being excited about going somewhere we had intended to enjoy swimming.

Decent independent hotel in a convenient location.
Pros:

This is a decent little independent hotel in a good downtown location. The room was nice and the breakfast room was convenient. It was economically priced as well.

Cons:

Because I booked through a third party (Booking.com) they said that they couldn't provide me with a printed receipt. Which is odd and has never happened when I have booked with this platform in the past.

Pros:

Rooms had lots of space and comfort.

Cons:

The arcade was a little expensive, 25 cents instead of 1 dollar would be more reasonable.

good for a quick travel stop for a night.
Pros:

Nice central location, cheap price...Morning Staff was very friendly and informative.

Cons:

Breakfast was ok, not a lot of options, considering you need to pay for it. Shower pressure was very low, and the arcade games controller didn't work. The pool was also not available, which I was not told about when booking.
