Staff were very friendly and accommodating. Carmello was awesome checking us in. Location was perfect. Pool was not heated, very cold. Room was what you would expect for the price. Nice to have options (different hotels with different price points).

Trip to Penticton

Our 2 night stay at this motel was safe, convinient & comfortable. We had all the appliances we needed in the room, the aircon was cool, comfortable beds & washroom clean with hot/cold water. The Okanagan Beach is just across the street, with restaurants & shops close by. The city centre is walkable & it's easy to drive coming from / heading to Vancouver, Kelowna or Osoyoos. Absolutely a great value resort motel.

For the most part it was a quiet motel. Unfortunately there is always that one guest that doesn't care, not the Motels fault. The bed was a little hard for my back, but that's about the only thing I had trouble with. Nice place, good people.
