The property is new and clean, but is across from a gas station and coffee drive thru. It's also on a couple of busy roads. Noisy traffic until midnight and started again at 5am. Ask for a room in the back of the building?

The staff were super friendly and helpful at the front desk and the restaurant. The water in the shower goes hot and cold, the coffee machine didn't come with any coffee whitener, very little healthy food choices in the area, only fast food really

We were pleased with the size of the room. It was very comfortable and clean. One of my criticisms of most hotel rooms, including this one, is the lack of adequate lighting, particularly near the beds.

Hotel is good, nice rooms and spacious. Breakfast was really good. Pet- friendly. Pool was a disappointment as it was small and not made for actual swimming lanes but rather a plunge pool. Was not mentioned on the site as a plunge pool.

One Night Stay

We stayed for one night on our way to Vancouver and had a great experience. Premises are very clean and comfortable. Loved the decor and lighting of the place which gave it a comfy feeling. Breakfast was great, lots of choices, coffee was particularly good. Overall a great experience.

Liked: Staff & service
Disliked: Amenities
We stayed at this hotel with our family and, unfortunately, had a very disappointing experience. Starting as early as 7:00 AM on both Saturday and Sunday, there was extremely loud construction noise coming from inside the hotel. The heavy grinding was disruptive and woke up our children, making it impossible for us to rest properly. When I raised the issue with the front desk, I was told the noise was from a neighboring property. However, after checking outside, it was clear there was no construction nearby — the noise was clearly coming from inside one of the hotel rooms. I found this lack of honesty very concerning. Since we had checked in late on Friday night, we were especially looking forward to some rest, but instead, our stay was cut short by the noise and mismanagement. I would not recommend this hotel until they resolve the construction and improve communication with guests.

I waited 20 minutes at just after 7pm for the front desk clerk to appear and check me in. There was no backup. She then answered the phone rather than giving me her undivided attention. The phone number in the sign to call if there was no one there, was the front desk number. I listened to it ring while I waited I told her the hotel systems were poor. After check in I asked her for directions to a place to buy a bottle of wine. She sent me in the wrong direction
