Kann man machen wenn man muss

+ ich hatte Glück und hatte das Damen Zimmer für nich alleine + aufgrund der niedrigen Belegung durfte ich gratis parkieren - es ist leider schon sehr schmudelig - das Zimmer war Eiskalt (01.01.25). Ich hab in Thermo Unterwäsche und Pyjama geschlafen. - Selbst um 7:30Uhr gab es noch kein Frühstück.

6/10 Good

The staff at the counter were excellent, very attentive and professional. The place was very clean and pleasant, bathrooms and kitchen areas included. What was bad for me, was the immediate proximity to the noisy Highway, (It's 'just there' right to the entrance, and the loud, constant noise of the vehicles 24/7 is too much for human comfort. Everything else was OK.

Pretty gross

Washrooms were gross, not clean, rundown, and no tp even after telling front desk. He said they filled it but we're at max capacity. Perhaps they should check it more frequently if at max capacity. Front desk guy was friendly and nice.

This is a hostel in downtown Kelowna. The room is tiny. Bathroom functional. We booked a private room/ bathroom. Excellent staff, $10 paid parking adjacent. Short walk to downtown shops and restaurants. Room was quiet, bed clean. Good value if you're passing through and do not need bells and whistles.
