Great spot to stay at if you're in the Castlegar area. The owner/manager met me at check-in, and we had a great chat. The room was as advertised, and I enjoyed my short stay. I'd definitely recommend this place.

Perfect for the price

Extremely kind and approachable staff. Comfortable beds. Very good value for the price. Only nitpick is that the water pressure in the shower was rather weak
