Fairfield Inn & Suites by Marriott West Kelowna
We loved our stay. I didn't realize I had booked in West Kelowna and was a little disappointed when I saw the location. The property is very clean. Staff is helpful. Breakfast was fresh and the kids enjoyed it. The pool was a hit as well. We would definitely stay again.

Oasis Inn
The motel was in a good location so I had an easy time getting to where I wanted to go. The light in the ceiling was pretty dim. It was hard to see anything with the blinds shut.
