Everything was good except the noisy people upstairs. Walking back and forth it seems super late at night and super early in the morning. Ruined our sleep as we had to be up early to do our activities

The rooms did not have any television for the evening. The TV in the common area was difficult to use and or did not work. The pictures on the Expedia site did not line up to the room that I was booked into. However, this day was manageable. Staff was friendly conditions were clean.

Looked just like in the pictures. Got what we expected. Like that parking was included, no hidden fees. Comfortable. Expensive for what you get, but that is the Kelowna accommodation situation.

Quiet, safe, cozy and convenient at less than half of neighbouring hotels! Room was plenty big enough, private bathrooms, large lounge with fridge stove and microwave available although I didn’t use it. I will definitely consider staying here again!

Basic clean rooms. We had a suite so extra room you will definitely need if traveling with a family or more than 1 person. No tvs so keep that in mind. Nice laundry facilities and a nice campus to go for walks. Would book again.

Overall decent. The campus is a bit confusing but it’s nice and walkable. Tho only thing I didn’t/don’t like is the price is a little high for what you get (no refrigerator or microwave like in a motel which makes sense it’s a student dorm) also the walls are a little thin. Everything else was really good. I would stay here again though
