Everything you need for a perfect trip. A peaceful location, ample parking, clean rooms, helpful staff and amenities. Of course, there’s no breakfast as it’s not a hotel but you can grab something from Tim’s and more. Great for families!

Good value. Rooms are a bit far from the 'reception/lobby'. Main disadvantage is the distance to downtown Kelowna. Of course, if you need to be close to the airport, it is a perfect location.

The price was right. The people at front desk were more than helpful. The room was clean however the water pressure could have been stronger and mattress could be more supportive but I enjoyed the brief stay and would book again.

This room had everything that I needed for an overnight stay. No tv, but that was fine as there was WIFI. I like that one had to have a special fob to enter the residential part. Made it safe than a hotel, where anyone can access.

We stayed to attend the Memorial Cup. The room rate was significantly below the rates being charged at Kelowna area hotels - who have chosen to use a surge pricing strategy during the Tournament. The facility met all of our requirements - a safe clean and comfortable room to spend our limited downtime while we enjoyed the hockey and sights and sounds of this beautiful area of our country.

0 amenities in the rooms. They are dorm rooms..kids bring thier own amenities for school. No instructions for the air. If you dont need anything other than a shower and a sleep..this is the place for you. However it was very clean.

Disliked: Cleanliness
I really appreciate it how kind the staff were and how efficient they were when it came to issues that I experienced during my trip. Unfortunately when I got to my room there was hair in the towels in the shower and weird stains on the bed when I got moved to a new room there were weird stains on the bed. Finally my third room there were still a couple stains on the top sheet, so we ended up changing all of the bedding and it was clean and fresh with no issues. I will have to say that the staff there was extremely prompt to fix the issues at hand just very unfortunate since I had a long day of travelling and had to deal with that. The parking situation was awesome as there was lots of space and it was extremely convenient and close to the building.
