Bathrooms in rough shape, ours had mold and rot. Hot tub was not working, which was the reason we chose this hotel. Breakfast was toast and yogurt. Room was clean and mostly updated. Not a bad option for a cheap, short stay

Place to stay on the hill. The hotel was quite run down but I feel they can get away with it because of where they are.

Not worth the convenience

For a non-smoking facility, the room smelled of smoke. The bed linens are more ivory than white. The mattresses are very firm without any pillow topper so you can feel the springs. The window/AC unit is very drafty so sitting at the table you will have cold feet. The walls between rooms are not well insulated if at all. You will hear your neighbour turn on the shower as the water sound through the pipes will shatter your sleep. The bathroom is typical of hotels that have maintenance done by DIY amateurs. However, the toilet has incredible flush power. If your intention is to be right on the hill for easy access skiing, I would recommend staying at a more comfortable hotel in town and taking the free shuttle or driving the 10 minutes to park for free. It is worth the extra hassle.

Great service! It’s certainly the budget option, but in comparison to other budget options, this one was great. Clean rooms with massive TV’s, social and common areas with a pool table, this place had everything we needed. Staff at check in were phenomenal and able to assist with everything.

Can’t beat a room steps away from the chairlift

Comfy basic motel steps in the fernie village. Can’t beat the location. Friendly staff, comfy beds, and super affordable.
