Standard stay no frills
Basic motel, good location on beach. Had to ask twice for bedding for pull out couch bed and still didnt provide pillows then had to ask for them. But over all good hotel for beach with a full kitchen.

Great location across the beach, short walk on the Esplanade & atmosphere to peach festival music. Suite had kitchen & the pool. DID NOT LIKE- no toilet paper, no toiletries, no tea/coffee, spider webs on ceiling fan chains, blood stains on spare pillow & pillow case, dirty dishes in cupboard, blood stained filthy sheets in hide a bed

Well dont waste any money on this place its literally a dump including toilet coming off the floor dirty rooms flat as a pancake pillows !!! Rock hard million year old bed !! Never again!!
Randy, 3-night trip

8/10 Very good

A good location at the beach, Okanagan Lake, just across the beach. Room was simple but quite large. Had Tv, 2 burner tove, coffee maker. They could probably add a little more kitchen stuff to to the room and a sponge to clean the dishes. Owner was helpful an broght exgtra glasses and a salad mixing bowl. You can wal to a grocery storeand also to dowtown. Good restaurants and coffee shops nearby.
Anna, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

Great, bike friendly place to stay. The people there are super friendly. Lots of room, dishes, good microwave, good fridge, good wifi, pretty much everything you need. Its not a new/shiny 5 start hotel and there is a few minor things I would spend a day and fix it up that would go a long way but in the end, its the only place in Penticton I ever go to as it fits my needs perfectly.
Eric, 3-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Clean, and walking distance to tourist activities. We would stay here again.

It was a good stay. Cable didn’t work. Said they would call Shaw but never heard anything again about it. Otherwise it was good. Older man working front desk was amazing
denine, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

The location is excellent . The bathroom fan did not work . There was one sink outside the bathroom which was for both bathroom and kitchen use . The a/c was VERY NOISY and needs servicing . The window blind did not work so we had to cover the window with towels at night .
