Disliked: Staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Unethical. The reservation defaulted to 2 guests as it does for literally every other hotel in the country. Because I did not change it to one guest they charged me an extra guest fee even though I was the only person who showed up. In other words, they stole from me, and basically said yes we are keeping the extra guest fee anyway. Simply unbelievable. If a bank mistakenly gives you $1000 instead of $100, you don’t just get to keep the extra money paid in error. That’s a crime and you go to jail if you do that. The rooms felt like a college dormitory. Not worth the price. They clearly hate Expedia and customers who use it. Ok. Fine. Then don’t accept reservations on Expedia. Blaming the customer and stealing from them is not acceptable.

We love the staff! Everyone was super friendly! The location was great, with a short walk to the downtown area, where shops and restaurants abound. The room was clean and comfortable, but very plain and small. With a bed and two small night stands, a small table, nice refrigerator, and one chair in front of the door (getting luggage into the room was difficult).

What a great find. This well run inn is located in downtown Smithers, close to shops, restaurants and city attractions. There is adequate parking. Rooms are pleasant and clean with comfortable beds. I was impressed by the reception staff and the breakfast room lady. The complimentary breakfast was well cooked. I stayed here twice on the going and the return trips. I would definitely stay here again.
