Summary: The building and furniture are old. The mattress is comfortable, but the bed frame squeaks. Our room had a lot of fruit flies, and the couch was dirty—good thing I brought my own blanket to cover it before sitting. The cutlery and cookware are also quite old. We’re not very meticulous, but cleanliness is very important to us. On the positive side, the front desk staff was nice, and the location is close to the lake.

Summary: Pros: across the street from the beach and lake. Close to amenities, including restaurants and bars. Nice outdoor pool. Staff was nice. Cons: dishes in the cupboard were dirty. Pull out mattress had a stain and there was no bedding for it. Main bed was fine. Bathroom was fine.

Summary: Upon early arrival at 2 PM I was told to come back at 4 and the room would be ready. I came back at 4 PM to be told it wasn’t ready to come back at 5. I came back at 5 and was told it still wasn’t ready because most people done check out until 11:00 AM. Well that then needs to be a concern of the owner/s to have the appropriate number of housekeepers on at that time to be able to have all rooms ready for check in time at 4:00 PM. The older gentleman that finally checked me in apologized but did not offer any compensation at all. I should not have to ask for this. He is a very kind gentleman who makes you feel you shouldn’t ask for compensation. There is not enough staff working to maintain Golden Sands as it should be. The exterior of the buildings look very shabby with run down not taken care of staircases with cobwebs, dust, dirt and debris including sand and dirt. In desperate need of cleaning. The room that we were given it had broken and bent blinds. The beds were directly in front of this window that people could see directly in while walking the upper balcony. I actually had to use a container lid for the bigger opening and I had to wrap toilet paper over the other broken blinds to help from people seeing in. There was no sink in the bathroom. There was a counter with microwave and coffee maker on it that also had the sink to use after using the bathroom. Dishes and dish detergent were sparsely supplied so I guess it has to be used for both. The location is a 5 star.

Summary: Our 2 night stay at this motel was safe, convinient & comfortable. We had all the appliances we needed in the room, the aircon was cool, comfortable beds & washroom clean with hot/cold water. The Okanagan Beach is just across the street, with restaurants & shops close by. The city centre is walkable & it's easy to drive coming from / heading to Vancouver, Kelowna or Osoyoos. Absolutely a great value resort motel.

Summary: The location is excellent . The bathroom fan did not work . There was one sink outside the bathroom which was for both bathroom and kitchen use . The a/c was VERY NOISY and needs servicing . The window blind did not work so we had to cover the window with towels at night .

Summary: Great location and decent A/C is the only positive. The motel is falling apart. Pool is leaking into the parking lot. Mattress was very hard and old. Thin old bedding and crappy pillows. No towel rack or toilet paper holder in the bathroom due to being broken. Bathroom door barely closed. No ice dispenser available or beverage machine. Several broken appliances littered on the property. Front check-in office is hoarded with supplies, very uninviting. $230 for 1 night, 2 adults & 2 kids.

Summary: A good location at the beach, Okanagan Lake, just across the beach. Room was simple but quite large. Had Tv, 2 burner tove, coffee maker. They could probably add a little more kitchen stuff to to the room and a sponge to clean the dishes. Owner was helpful an broght exgtra glasses and a salad mixing bowl. You can wal to a grocery storeand also to dowtown. Good restaurants and coffee shops nearby.
