We were in room 15 and were woken up several times in the night because bats are living in the rafters! It sounded like they were flying in the room and scared the crap out of us.

It was a place to test the head. Parking was awkward , people smoked right outside the rooms, rooms needs some TLC but were clean. Convent fridge and microwave. The price meets the standard I think. Check in was odd had to go into the gas station nothing against it just odd. Staff were meh to the point not rude but didn’t feel overly welcome.If you need a place to rest you head for a night and don’t want to pay a lot here’s the place. Looking for comfortable place this may not be sheets extremely scratchy so it was uncomfortable to sleep on.

While the rooms were dated, the mattresses were new. The bathrooms were very old and the tub was stained, with some mildew build up. The toilet ran all night. It is connected to a gas station which felt weird as the office was in the gas station. The number to call staff was hard to find. They were also paving the parking area so we couldn’t park near our room which was frustrating.

The price was right for the room I got. All I wanted was a place with indoor plumbing, no leaky roof, a comfortable bed, and an A/C that works--and that's what I got.

The room was tiny, which doesn’t overt matter. The walls need a good scrub down. The beds were comfortable and the sheets were clean.

"Nothing compares to youuuuu"
Better than camping in the pouring rain. Friendly staff! The bathroom and towels were surprising very clean. The walls look like they have been sprayed with some bodily fluids, and it looks like a strangling or two may have happened here.
But, you get what you pay for! Overall, if you need a cheap place to crash for the night, it'll do!

We rate this motel based on our expectations and value, considering the rate we paid in relation to other similar facilities in the area.. It was excellent value and we intend to stay here again when in the area. Shauna was helpful and honest.

Definitely an older motel, but it’s also half the price of every other hotel in town during my mid-August stay. With that in mind, this place was fine especially for a short stay. It was decently comfortable overall & all the basics are covered. Check-in is easy, no need to call the motel prior to arrival once your reservation is booked, as long as you know the gas station next door also manages the motel now, so that’s where the front desk is. The only downside is the interesting restaurant on site has long since closed.

It is what it is. I appreciate this place being cheap as dirt, cause who wants to spend hundreds of dollars on a hotel in revelstoke when you’re staying one night. It was a good sleep.
