Weekend visit to kelowna
The building was clean and easy to access. The staff were friendly and check in and out were quick. The common area has stove and fridge with toaster and kettle and microwave. There were not pots, pans or utensils or dishes. So bring your own. It was simple and comfortable and the price was very good with free parking.

This was a great location to stay for a couple of nights, and the shared kitchen facilities would accommodate longer stays as well. The only thing we were lacking during our stay was a place to get a bite to eat or a coffee locally. Due to the time we were there nothing on campus was open during our stay, but otherwise if you are looking for a budget option close to the airport or within the UBC campus grounds, this is an excellent and affordable option.
