The Surestay is our “ go to hotel” in Castlegar. The staff are wonderful, the rooms are clean and very comfortable and the breakfast has a nice array of tasty options, including hot items like scrambled eggs etc.
Very appreciative of the complimentary breakfast. Great variety of options. Clean and good size room. Lots of parking and food options in the area. Great hotel overall.
The hotel was very clean and quiet. The staff was friendly and very helpful. It was nice to have the option of the breakfast on our quick trip through!
Everything was great. The only issue is that we stayed 3 nights and they didn’t clean our room until the 3rd day. I had to call to get them to clean it and get fresh towels, etc, all in all it was still very good
