Staff was nice. No complains! Location is good. My unit was in the back of the building, so no noise. I'm not sure how would that be for those at the front of the building. Affordable pricing. Bed sheets were apparently cleaned and mattress is good. Floor was not cleaned property. Unit had a strong smell of cigarrete.

We found a bed bug this morning. Staff provided garbage bags so we could pack up. Arrived and there were no towels in the room. Fridge needs a serious defrost one day. Felt cramped and stuffy.

The beds were comfortable but washroom wasn’t as clean and the room didn’t smell that nice, but nice for 1night stay. The ice machine wasn’t working but working in the morning. Property outside could have been a bit cleaner.

Booked a non smoking room and the guests before us clearly had smoked A LOT inside the room, there were burns in the bedside table even. It smelled like an old dirty ashtray. We were only there to sleep otherwise I'd have asked for another room altogether. In hindsight i should have asked. The staff were friendly and the room was clean, just stinky. Rooms are overpriced.

This place is great! Price is good, free breakfast and accomodating staff. Had to make some last minute changes and Supreet was able to accomodate! I will highly recommend this place if you're looking for a place to stay for a day or 2. Thank you Howard Johnson. Neri

It was a convenient stop on our way to Victoria and swrved our need, however,the roomsare dated and in need of renovation and, even though we were in a non smoking room, there was an overwhelming smell of Cannabis smoke upon entering. I did report this to the receptionist upon check out but was just given the excuse that it was probably people smoking outside. This smell was real Overall, the beds were comfy, it was quiet, and there's a Dennys next door but not worth the money and we wouldn't return.

The Howard Johnson Downtown is good value and close to the hospital which is why I was in Kamloops. The staff are friendly and helpful. The self-serve breakfast is great. The grounds are a bit littered and some items in the room are chipped (doorstep, bathtub). Bathtub plug is stained as well as a stain on a towel. The HJ Downtown has improved its image and has done lots of renos.

The person at the checkin desk seemed to be somewhat disorganized. But they have a unique system where there is no one at the desk but there is a button that we had to push. It rings in a back room and the person appears. Checkin was slow but we got it done. Then I asked him where there was a restaurant suitable for dinner. He got out a map and showed me a couple of choices several blocks away. I didn't say anything but it seemed odd as there is a Dennys next door, where we went and it was quite good. Our room was on the second floor and there is no elevator. We are in the elderly category so stair can be difficult at times but there were no other rooms available. There was no suggestion from him as to helping us. Once in the room it was OK but the inadequate air conditioning unit was very noisy however we had no choice because of the outside temperature. While the room was reasonable, the motel in general was somewhat run down. The breakfast is included but it was very basic with limited choices. The last straw was the inadequate pillows. We asked if they had more pillows on our way to dinner. He said he would take a look and call our room, leave a message and let us know.. We returned from dinner to see him hand a pillow to another guest. We asked for our pillow and were told that was the last one. What about ours? The excuse was we were not in the room so he couldn't give it to us. We won't stay here again.
