Decent little motel literally 50 feet from gorgeous okanagan lake beach. Our suite had an amazing lake biew as it was on the second floor facing the beach. Room was clean, had a full kitchenette. Mattress wasn’t the best but heard good reviews on the sofa bed. Definitely bring extra pillows unless you like to sleep on a single pancake pillow. I asked for extra and was told they weren’t available. The property is nice and well maintained with multiple BBQ’s available for use. Pool was decent but was unheated.

Being harassed and locking out my daughter with all her things in there. Forced to find better service elsewhere. We will not return or recommend to anyone. Felt discriminated and harassed and unsafe. Expecting a full refund.

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The older lady at the front desk had an extremely rude attitude towards our family from the moment we arrived, and that attitude continued for the duration of our stay. The room was alright however floors had not been mopped or swept prior to arrival and there’s a spider problem in the rooms as well. Our pillows were very flat and had weird spots on the cases. Only nice thing about this place is the distance to the beach and the older gentleman who was so kind. Overall , very frustrating experience for the price we paid and I would not go back

Definitely would not stay here again, the check in was confusing and difficult. Once we got to our room there was no parking available on the property. The room was not clean, there was a tiny sheet on a mattress that looked like someone may have bled out on it, stains everywhere. A/c is ineffective and loud. Seems like there’s black mold on the ceiling. Dark, and dirty. The ONLY bright side is how close it is to the beach, and near by shops. Water pressure in the dirty shower is great also. Spend the extra $50 and go to a nicer place.

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Its walkable to everything.. The front staff is very unfriendly.. Not welcoming at all. When I checked in, i greeted her nicely but no response, took my payment and gave me the room keys.. Didnt even gave me the wifi password.. I thought it may be available in the room but isnt. I didnt manage to go back and askes as I dont want to deal with her anymore.. such a negative vibe. The properly itself is old and smell old as you enter the room, however, good customer service can make up for it.. On check out, same lady manning the office, I greeted good morning, she greeted me back with her eyes glued to her computer.. I said Im checking out took my keys and thats it.. We have been coming back to Penticton every year.. This is our first time at this property and we will never come back.. I will not recommend it to my friends either.
