In the last 37 years of travelling in both the US and here in beautiful British Colombia, we have never rated a motel as highly as we have for Fireweed. It was perfect in every single way so stop looking now if your looking for a place to stay and book this wonderful little gem.

Clean renovated rooms. Staff seems friendly enough with the little interaction I had with them. I don't think there is AC in the rooms, so I might avoid in the hottest days of summer.

This motel was old but was super clean. I asked for a covid clean room because I have autoimmune illness and they certainly did a grest job giving me a clean room. The staff was friendly and helpful with some recommendations for eating out. The surround area was not so clean but that is because of the gravel and sand laid down for the snow. Definity not modern but we were happy with what we got.

Great overnight stay on road trip

Very friendly and efficient reception personnel. Nice room and king size comfortable bed. Able to park in front of the room. A bit of footsteps noise from other. Travelers but not really bothersome at all. We had a pet with us and it was not an issue ever.

Great staff, my check in was quick and they were very friendly. Parking lot was very small and hard to maneuver once it got full and noise was a bit of a problem from other guests but other than that our stay was great and reasonably priced for a long weekend
