Twin Rivers Motel

Castlegar

Room was a mish mash of  outdated furniture,  small tv with hardly any channels and the internet was complete garbage, it worked than it never.   Blinds on window were a joke... old and falling apart and never kept out the light, nor offered privacy.  
This place needs to be bulldozed.    Check the room before you pay is my recommendation.

Out dated Rooms  and services

Rooms are large but that's  about it.   Internet is Bad..  doesn't work and is unreliable.  Cable TV channels  are very few.   Noisy Rooms..no insulation between units.. can hear people snore at night.  A/C is terrible.. not sure it ever worked properly.  Beds are okay.. not comfy.   Worst thing is the amount of Bugs and Spiders that were encountered... it was bad.    My Oven blew up..it was never fixed.  Noise from Tim Hortons is overwhelming.      Avoid this place you will be glad you did.

Over run with Spiders, Bugs.   Outdated Rooms  Noisy   Avoid this place

Check in was a breeze and the managers are very friendly and accommodating. The suites are huge but very outdated. Kitchenettes and bathrooms are stocked with all the basics you'd need. Clean though, and for the price of a night it is quite a steal. I had the room right next to the road and thought the noise would bug me but I couldn't hear traffic at all! The trail to the river needs a bit of trimming but is a nice plus. The Tim Hortons right next door is also a big plus!  And I honestly had one of the best sleeps in a long time on the cozy mattress. Must be new or high end?  Definitely a great investment where it counts! 

Great for the price

This is a welfare motel.. a lot of fights  people drinking day and night RCMP are always here.  Forget this place.   A total JOKE.  Do not eventink about staying inthis dump you will get no sleep fromthe fights outside and yelling.. and everything else

Forget this place

I have stayed in a lot of places and this was by far the nicest for the price. If you are looking for a budget stay in the Castlegar area this is the best choice by far.  You can bring your animal, and they have one smoking room.  The smoking room is my room and upon entering I could not smell smoke.  Go figure.  They have fully stocked kitchenettes and the proproetor is great.  Thanks, Castlegar!

Needed a nice little hideaway....

After our layover stop in Greenwood B.C. ,we decided to go to Castlegar as part of our road trip to the Kootenay .Our first choice of accommodations  there was the Chameleon Hotel,from the outside,it seems to have that old style charms,from the pictures of the suites,it definitely look appealing and the price factor is pretty attractive.But due to GF osteo arthritis ...stairs is out of the question.So we quickly had to find a back up plan to stay where it does not involve stairs or lots of steps,factor in daily rate and closeness to food and shopping due to GF can't walk too far.Two choices we came to was Cozy Pines Motel or Twin River Motel.We chose Twin River Motel for its location to begin with.When we arrived at the office we were greeted by one of the most dedicated,thoughtful and warm Inn keeper on this trip so far.The suite we chose was front facing street view and inside our suite was clean with full kitchenette if you choose to cook your food combine with a comfortable bed that we felt it gave us some good rest.One of the interesting idea in this suite was that the ac is small and quieter ...located in back bedroom and the ceiling fan at the front draws the gentle cool breeze to our sleeping area at the front part of the suite.You get a nice gentle quieter cool breeze without the white noise that keep you up at night.There is Tim Horton right next door and other restaurants/pub within minutes of driving or walking so dining was close to us.This place does has a little bit of quirks ...like shower in our suite took a little bit of time for hot water to rush out and the blinds facing the front at times was alittle bit sticky and one or two flaps were out of alignment...how ever these are not deal breakers to us....The thoughts we gather about the Twin River Motel are reasonable rates for the time of season we travel,good bed,clean room and kitchenette,strong wi-fi to stay in touch,pretty close to dining,No frill grocery across the street,Tim Horton next door and friendly enough even our dog enjoy the stay...top it off with a warm and dedicated Inn keeper and her staff to us.This motel deserve a solid 4 star!!!

Its a good all rounder motel with convenience close by

The room has mice poison under the vanity in the bathroom, the air condition/heater did not work.  My wife sat in bed for about 30 minutes and was covered in bites.  We got our money back and left that place and the owner refused to reimburse us for the bite medication and mattress cover and treatment for our home.

Bedbugs

This is one of the worst Motels I have stayed in, it smells and is
dirty. The traffic noise is the worst ever. We were charged $90.00 to stay in this run down mess. I have stayed in over 1000 Motels on Motorcycle trips and this is the worst.

Dont waste your time.

We had a wonderful stay - the view from our room was amazing.  Joanne and Erik were great hosts and very welcoming.  We were amazed that we were welcomed so warmly as we have a big dog.  The bed was very comfortable, and the room was so clean we couldn't believe what a good value Twin Rivers is.
