Hotel is not impressive from the outside, but our room certainly was. Spotless clean, good size, bed was amazing, our own control air conditioner, hot water, hiking trails just steps away, quiet at night, even though the hotel looked pretty fool. Continental breakfast basic, but good enough to hold you off until lunch time. Coffee was the best I've tasted in any hotel. Staff was very helpful and they were constantly re-supplying everything at the breakfast room. Will definitely book them again in the future

The property overlooks Cascades Park. It is situated in a quiet wooded area. The only close store is Big Red Liquor. It is clean. The staff are nice. The hotel is undergoing renovation. Reasonably priced. No workout room or pool. It was sufficient as i was not expecting luxury.

This is an older property that has been refurbished. Not everything is in top-notch shape, dripping bathtub for example, but the staff is very friendly and the breakfast was good. It’s like staying at the home of a friend that means well.
