If I had the option to give this place a 0 star I would. When we arrived we noticed right away that the pictures did not match what this sandman inn actually looks like online. Once we checked in we headed to our room which was disgusting. Black marks all over the walls, bathroom is very outdated the rooms are dark and dingy with little to no light. The rooms are also very damp and just overall dirty. After chatting with my partner we decided to not even stay and found something else. This hotel needs serious updating and needs some accessibility updates there is no elevator or ramp to get into this sandman. The area is not the safest

I thought it has Denny’s (24 hours) right front of the hotel is a pros, but my room window was facing to Denny’s and people coming in/out there were so loud even after midnight, which woke me up multiple times. I would recommend having earplugs if you were sensitive to the noise when you sleep.

It is not the nicest, nor in the nicest part of town but it’s convenient to where we like to go, shares a parking lot with the very best Denny’s, and the staff is welcoming. It’s our go to place to stay when in Kamloops.
