Terrible motel. Staff isn't trained to process payment correctly, sorting out the receipt was a labored ordeal. Room was bad. There was a hole in the upper portion of the bathroom sink that was rotting. I can see that the Hojo business model is to buy a bad local motel, throw their modern sign out front and dupe you into...

My room was fine. I loved the white, washable clean duvet cover. However when my partner tried to call me to say she was home safely nobody answered the phone and it was 8 pm. She tried and tried, finally got the bar and they were rude and hung up. I had a night of worry as I didn't have... More

I stayed here for work when the Coast Fraser up the hill was booked. My visit started unpromisingly with a sign at the front desk indicating internet service would not be available for two weeks. After signing in with the rude receptionist, I went upstairs through a hallway stinking of beer to my run-down, terribly shoddy room. Weather conditions at... More

This was our first stop on our trip to Alaska and the worst hotel I have ever stayed at! The walls were paper thin and we could hear every word of the conversations in the next room. The sheets were cheap and rough. Very little sleep that night, next time I'll stay elsewhere. More

We first stayed here in July of 2009 for a weekend when I came to Williams Lake to meet my new granddaughter. We required accomodations that accepted dogs. This was the only place we could find. Little did I know that people lived full time in this hotel. The whole hotel reeked of cigarette smoke and horrible cooking smells from... More

Shoddy, grimy, gross and truly filthy dirty. Rude, surly front desk staff (perhaps due to all the complaints they must receive. Another review suggested staying at a chain instead. This is part of a chain and I can't believe it is a Howard Johnson property and part of the Wyndham group! Will not blindly book with the Wyndham family of... More

My company booked my stay at Williams Inn with a quoted price and a request for a kitchenette. When I arrived they were not even aware of my reservation, oh wait there it is on a scrap peice of paper. There was no room with my needs ready and all of a sudden the price had increased. The staff (owner/manager?)... More

My husband and I checked in for 2 nights and the room was so dirty we checked out early and found other accommodation. There was 1 inch of dust on all the furniture, the bar fridge did not work and was not plugged in. The towels were worn and there was so much furniture in the room you could not... More

The best hotel I've been to in a long time. I really found everything convenient and worth the price. There's a restaurant and superb bar within the hotel. Made loads of friends at the bar. The Indian food at the restaurant was tasty... Room was marvellous...it had a plasma screen, brand new bath room and huge bed. I went to... More

We loved the V.I.P treatment that we got there, and the low rate at which this extraordinary room was given to us. It had a plasma screen and living room!! Overall, we were happy with our stay and enjoyed ourselves with the East Indian food and pub on site. The best part was the warm hospitality we got from the... More
