Room is a bit dated, but beds and pillows are super comfy. Air conditioner also dated , but it worked well , and was loud enough to block out any room noise ! Would return :)

We just finished Playing in the BC Provincial Masters at Kelowna Badminton Club and we stayed in Recreation Inn & Suites. For the value that we paid it is worth the money. Don't expect 1st class rooms or amenities. But is you are out for most of the day and just need a place to sleep then it's OK!

The building itself is quite run down, in need of a face lift. The rooms are as clean as can be with what they have to work with. I think a coat of paint inside and out would go a long way. The breakfast was average. However, quite sufficient. Price is quite reasonable. Was very quiet , which was nice. Parking was very tight, and lacking a spot for every room.

Disliked: Cleanliness
Rated cleanliness down not because it was dirty so much as too agressively cleaned. In breakfast area both mornings of my stay staff was spraying everything and cleaning during service time. They were cleaning table I was sitting at while I was eating, sanitizing the service utensils and spots that were in contact with food, etc. I am sure that we were getting chemicals in our food as a result. Also although the breakfast was "free" eggs were like hockey pucks, only white bread available, and nothing fresh.

Stayed here a couple times but rooms were clean and beds were comfy only thing is not a whole lot of parking especially if you want to park in front of your room
Stayed 1 night in Feb 2024
Response from Front desk on 2024/2/23
Thank you for taking the time to let us know about your stay. I am glad that overall you had a good experience. We always encourage our guests to park close to their rooms but it gets difficult for the guest staying on the second floor to do so. That is why, it gets hard sometimes for the guests on the ground floor to park in front of their rooms. Thank you fro understanding. Hope to see you again.
