Sahara Courtyard Inn Penticton

Much better than expected, I booked two rooms one for me and my husband and one for my daughter’s family, theirs had a kitchenette which was a surprise. Great family and pet friendly as we had a dog with us, the central courtyard with the pool was amazing.

The room was clean, the bed was comfortable, and there were plenty of electrical outlets handy to the bed and table. A 24 hour Tim Horton's was just across the street for my very early morning wake-ups.

We loved the pool. Also, we discovered that there are a couple BBQ’s you can use which is fantastic. We stayed in suite 246 which is in the corner by the tree. It was lovely and shaded. The full kitchen and master bedroom were such a treat and made our trip so much more affordable because we were able to dine in instead of going to restaurants. The staff were very friendly. This property is in the midst of renovation and you can see just how lovely it will be when it is all completed, a gem in the corner of the heart of the city. It is right across from a Tim Hortons and a quick trek by foot to the boardwalk along the lake. A fantastic evening stroll to see all the beautiful public art installations and to grab a bucket of mini donuts for a snack as you enjoy the view.

The pool was great. We used it multiple times a day. Other motel guests did not respect the property or even follow the guides of no food in the pool area. They left garbage and chewed or spilled food everywhere. The room was clean and well stocked with kitchen items, though there was no microwave which seemed odd.

Clean comfortable room, BBQ was a nice suprise, value was good compared to other locations in area, pool was clean.
