No amenities, limited food availability, lights burned out, stupid but toilet paper holder broken, no extra TP if we had needed it, no ice available, entry light switch did not work, phone didn’t work. Would never stay there or recommend
We rented two rooms, everyone agrees the beds were comfortable, which is high in our list. One room was a king size bed. The room had included two queen size beds and was divided by a room and even had a kitchenette. Will stay here again.
DO NOT LEAVE VALUABLES or even anything not so valuable in the rooms when you stay here, same difference.. the cleaning staff will steal either. This is more geared towards the Cedars(which is owned by the prestige) but I definitely won’t be staying at either after this past experience, plus the owner won’t reply when you review anything on the Cedars.
I’ve been coming to The Colombia valley for 20 years and stayed at this sh*thole for the first time on my way out to Golden. Stay anywhere else but here. Trust me.
I was going to leave a good review if this didn’t happen.
This property is older and has no staff nor amenities besides an old bbq out back. Check in is at another property. If basic is okay with you it does the trick.

FANTASTIC STAY!
Exceeded expectations! We stayed at the Cedar Motel for the Columbia Valley car show 2023. LOVED IT! Check in was easy at the Prestige Inn. Card key worked awesome (wave worked way better than inserting card at other hotels). Room was nicely updated & clean!! 2 queen beds (one in it's own bedroom) both very comfortable! Cute white kitchen with ceramic stove top, little fridge, own sink. Well stocked with dishes & cutlery. Excellent location for car show, no noise at night! Ample parking. Even though no staff on site, someone came by in the morning to replenish towels etc. Fantastic value for price! Will be back!!
The room was in great need of renovation. The tub looked dirty and we had to plug the air-conditioned in the bathroom.You can hear the people walking around on the balcony and whatever was going on in the next room.The bed was very comfortable and I liked the location. I probably wouldn't book at this motel again.
We greatly enjoyed our stay at Cedar Motel. You have to check in/out at the Prestige Hotel up the road and they are your “front desk” if you need anything during your stay. Room was clean, had fridge/microwave/coffee machine. Housekeeping daily, and you can use the amenities (gym, pool, restaurant) of the Prestige Hotel. Hot Springs close by, lots more food options at Invermere 15 mins away but some options in town too. 1.5 hrs drive to Banff and lots of hikes in Kootenay National park the whole way there.

Property was clean and close. No office so, can't comment on staff. The AC worked really well. Only thing I would say is to clean the BBQs.

The beds were very comfy and everything was clean and great. Just wish as three women traveling alone that the door had a deadlock.

Great little motel located on the main road and residential area. We stayed in a double queen with kitchenette. The motel is owned by Prestige hotels down the street. They have 24-hour check-in, which was great because we arrived late. The kitchenette was missing a few things, and the hotel attendant brought them to us even though it was very late. Walking distance to restaurants and there are also two restaurants on-site, which we didn't try. You can use the pool and hot tub at the Prestige hotel. Very comfortable rooms and beds. Very clean. Updated bathrooms. Rustic but nice. Maid service came to change our towels and replenish coffee when we were out. Great value. Would definitely stay there again. Quiet.

This motel was absolutely adorable. Very clean, comfortable beds, air conditioned. It's retro, and I am here for it.
Cheaper by about $100 than any other accommodations in the area.
There are no staff on site, but you check in at the Prestige hotel right down the street, and have access to all of their amenities including the pool and gym.
10/10 would stay again!

The room on this property was dirty,the lighting was almost none existent,some of the work being done on room was not finished and the area outside the room was filthy for the money this place was a ripoff.I would not recommend this place to anyone.If we would have had an alternate place to go to we would have gone.There were also spiders in the room not a pleasant experience and also the place smelled old and toxic.And last thing if you are old or handy capped this place has no elevator to second floor.

It's a Pleasant motel on the edge of town. They have a problem with the wiring in the room and advise that you not have too many things plugged in at the same time. Anytime you have time to print and laminate a notice saying you have a problem you've taken too much time to solve it. Letting people know you are "aware of the problem" only says that you're too cheap to fix it and you don't want to hear any more complaints.
No where in add it says you have to drive across town to check in at a different hotel . Then you have to drive back across town to check in . Staff at check in hotel was hostel towards me on phone . Road in from mountains and WAS NOT READY FOR THIS GONG SHOW .
Property is along side highway, building is old and run down. Units don’t match pictures. Floor is thin above occupancy is loud on floor. No check in on site you need to go to another hotel to check in and drive back to your hotel. Price too high for lower quality.
Very quaint motel. Room was clean, comfortable and nicely appointed (fridge and microwave). Nice deck off the back of the motel with two bbqs. Great value for the price.

Screwy check-in process; drive to nice resort, retrieve keys to the crappy old motel down the street. No staff on site. Nice flowers in the hanging baskets outside! Rooms and furnishings are very old. Clean, but old old old. No ice or vending on-site???
