Property appeared newly refurbished and the rooms were spacious and comfortable. Check in was smooth and there was ample free parking on site. The hotel is located fairly close to shops, restaurants, Riverside park and Kamloops viewpoint. A most welcome bonus was that there was an outdoor pool that was included. There was also breakfast included which was great but limited to things like granola bars, fresh fruit, muffins, tea coffee, etc. Would definitely stay here again.

The rooms very clean and the beds are super comfortable. Awesome view. It also seems to be very well insulated as one could barely hear outside noises. The kids had fun in the pool

Nice enough room for the price and location. Had a nice view of the river and sunset. Air conditioner was a bit loud but at least it worked. Compared to other hotels in the area this was the cream of the crop.
