Extremely clean. Provided all amenities a person could need. Ron and Vita are two of the most interesting people I have met in a long time. I hope to be able to stop in this fall on our way out of Alaska. Excellent stay! The conversation was amazing.

We rented a room here for a family get together. Room was clean and laid out well. Nice to have the kitchen if you were staying longer. Bed was quite stiff if you like a soft bed this was not for you. It was winter and the heater would kick on every now an again. It's very loud like a jet engine. Staff were friendly and helpful easy checking in and out. There is not much at ft fraser so not sure who would stay long term here. If your in need of a room and are tired I wouldn't hesitate to stop here if you need one night.
