"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.

So I guess I'd sort of say there's the Good The bad and The ugly. The good is the staff is incredibly friendly and helpful, the bed was quite comfortable, the air conditioning was quiet, bathroom was clean, the room was clean, and the place is incredibly cheap. We paid $85 with taxes for two people and a dog. In a place where lots of hotels are $300 that was a bargain. But remember, you get what you pay for. The bad is the rooms are extremely small, in a bit of a state of disrepair, the fridge and air conditioner leak on the floor, and there is a smell of cigarette smoke in the room. The ugly frankly is that this place is quite run down and that the ad isn't truthful about having dining on the property. It's not walkable really around the area.

Revy is a fun town. This hotel was very rundown and questionable cleanliness, yet what do you expect for the price?

The place is really grungy and sketchy. Would not stay here again and would not recommend to others. You'd be better off to pay a bit more at other places and have a clean, decent and safe place to stay.

Bed was smaller than we thought, but was super comfortable which was a happy surprise. Bathtub shower combo was elevate of the floor level by over a foot so although it looks normal while standing outside the tub once you get in the shower head came up to my chest. So they was no way to stand in the shower and get your head wet unless you can do a back bend or bend way forward to wash your hair. The office for key pickup is in the gas staition which was weird and a little confusing. Other than that it was an ok stay for one night and literally only $80 with taxes.

Even though it is a cheap place, I don't think this property should exist. There were large bugs flying inside. Had to kill. They don't clean the the bedding. There were hairs. The battmroom wasn't clean. I don't know why they clean so poorly. The area is gravel. Just not worth it, even for low price.

Next time I’m sleeping my car.
Honestly, terrible. Checking in to as difficult - finally figured it out and the lady was less than helpful. Room was SO hot. Air conditioner didn’t work. Had to unplug fridge because it was so loud. Bugs in the room, no screens on the window so couldn’t open them. Bed was uncomfortable. All of that I could get past but the worst part was it smelt like someone smoked a pack of cigarettes a day for 5 years in there.
