Guest Reviews
- Wagar (10/5): -
- Danilo (9/5): Muito bom lugar - Excelente aquecedor e quarto, confortável. O fato de ser beira de estrada é ruim pois tem algum barulho a noite
- Ro (8/5): -
- Diedrich (10/5): -
- Eithen (10/5): It was an awesome stay and the view is the best. - The view is the room was on the lake I loved it all
- Lois (9/5): -
- Patricia (7/5): -
- Vicki (3/5): - At 38 degrees the fact that there is no Air Conditioning made it very uncomfortable.
- Russell (7/5): - Needs to be up-dated but is very nice. It needs to have a face lift.
- Orvel (3/5): - Place was old and not kept up
- Lyle (6/5): Was OK for price and length of time we stayed there. One night stopover worked. - No breakfast, but good coffee maker. Good location and quiet from road traffic, but lots of workers and noisy trucks from inside the motel traffic.
- gavin (8/5): Exellent value, good service - Quiet and clean A little big old and rustic
- kelli (7/5): private and cozy. serene after a long day of travel. will stay again. - good location, homey atmosphere, grassy area and a view of the lake. very friendly staff. clean. a bit worn, but charming. The lighting was a bit dim, not a problem in summer but could be in darker months.
- Leona Hunlin (10/5): Happy customer - Everything was good, nothing to complain about Not enough heat in the bathroom.
- WANDA JEAN (10/5): As above. - I picked Lakeside Motel because it was the most affordable place to stay in Williams Lake… an old school motel, probably built in the 50s. But the welcome and check-in, The, actual facilities, the cleanliness and the comfort, were top notch! Even the TV was user-friendly usually have to call staff to help me operate a hotel TV, but this one was great and easy to use. I drive-through Williams Lake six or seven times a year, and I will for sure stay here each time in future. Nothing
- Leona Hunlin (10/5): Great place - Location is good All the rooms could use a better heating in the winter
- Ramirez (7/5): -

- Jackie (8/5): Great location; good value; buy local! :) - Great views and super friendly staff. The noise transference from the units below us.
- April (10/5): -
- Kara (10/5): - Clean
- fraser (7/5): Great for work stop overs. - Pet friendly and tidy rooms central to the town and services. Downstairs back rooms are ground level, but actually a flight of stairs, so a bit inconvenient if notvexpecting stairs.
- Don (6/5): - The people at the front desk
- Koepke (9/5): - The view No hairdryer in the room and the coffee didn't work
- Grygus (6/5): - Location, beautiful view, nice clean grounds, pet friendly Needs new mattress
- Christopher (9/5): All-in-all a thoroughly enjoyable experience. Thank you! - I especially loved the old-fashioned feeling of the place, hot water heat, a real door key, the well-equipped kitchen and an Analog phone sitting on top of a Phone book! Priceless for the digitally disenfranchised in today's world :) Access to the highway a little treacherous for the uninitiated.
- Betty (1/5): -
- Babcock (10/5): Great staff clean facilities - Convenient to town quiet clean, likes the little mini golf course N/A
- Krzysztof (9/5): -
- MartenG (7/5): -
- Diane (6/5): Pleasant. - Picturesque old style motel with parking at your door. Close to Museum of Cariboo-Chilcotin. Manager was friendly and helpful, remembered me from previous visit. Rooms were a bit shabby, could do with refurbishment.
- Leona Hunlin (10/5): No comments - Everything Nothing
- gavin (7/5): -
- HunKun (7/5): -
- Tryton (8/5): - Clean room, nice staff, open parking and mini golf included :) for $7
- bill (10/5): A peaceful and convenient stay with easy access and friendly vibes all around - Located right off the highway—easy to find and very convenient. The sign is easy to spot, but I still missed it—maybe I was driving too fast.
- Lubomir (6/5): - Run down motel in need of renovation. Beautiful location, our room had a Lake view. Nice park near by to take a walk.
- Trina (6/5): It was good enough for the price - It was clean and quiet It was very run down
- Judy (7/5): This was our 3rd stay there which should tell you something - The toilet paper really sucked. Way too thin. The bathroom adjacent to ours the bathroom was loud. The outside light lit our room all night which interrupted our sleep.
- Percy (10/5): - We had a room with a view of the lake. Friendly guests, friendly staff, it wasn’t our first time staying at lakeside and it won’t be our last, we will stay there again.
- aklc86 (9/5): - Very nice staff; willing to provide help. The room is old. Window and Door really need to repair. Lots Spider-Web ...
- Duyen (4/5): -
- Arohk (10/5): Wonderful and Charming! - The rustic feel, the Lakeview, and the clean, decent furniture and soft blankets were amazing. Great and friendly staff. We loved our stay. The rooms have more amenities than usual, which was nice! Would stay again. (THIS HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH THE MOTEL. Its just a heads up for people staying.) Beware Google GPS. It'll send you across the street. To someone's house. Just turn around and look toward the lake, you'll see the motel! It even sent our Uber Eats driver there.
- Matthew (10/5): Nice quant place to stay - Only stayed for the night during a longer journey down south but overall was a nice comfortable and clean place, would definitely stay again.
- Hans (8/5): - Great place to stay!
- Rosalyn (6/5): Not so affordable for the level of room - Been staying here for the last 8 years during our road trip to the north. It’s a convenient location, usually well priced, has a patio and is pet friendly. However interior and maintenance continues to worsen, needs for repair - and now the price has gone up! Next trip might consider paying another 15 dollars and stay somewhere with a little more amenities and comfortable interior.
- Cody (10/5): - Check-in staff was great. Would stay again.
- Vivian (7/5): -
- Peggy (8/5): - It was clean and staff were nice
- Bernhard (8/5): - An old motel which could use some updates
- JODIE (1/5): Don't stay here - I didnt like anything . It was the dirtiest motel I've ever stayed in. It was disgusting
- Christie (10/5): - Basic older motel, my go to hotel in Williams lake
Friendly staff and always feel welcomed here
- Simon (8/5): Good for what we required - Good value for money considering it was a stop off point en route elsewhere.
Bed was comfortable, bath and shower good. Quiet, ideal for its purpose. Although bed and bathroom were fine, the room could do with a thorough clean.
Decor is decidedly tired.
- Ray (7/5): -
- Richard (7/5): In general, good stay for a reasonable price. - No breakfast available. Often couldn't use the balcony as immediate neighbor smoked frequently and smoke came right to our.
Sign was not easily seen from highway for northbound traffic.
- Setah (9/5): -
- Antone (3/5): We lived thru it! - If there had been another available room in town we would have left as soon as we saw the room. Condition of the room was only fair. There was a nasty odor in the room.
- Peter (4/5): SCTravler - The key to the room did not work and the owner guy had troubles getting us in. The patio sliding doors did not lock and the owner expected us to know to put a board in the door to stop it from sliding. The office does not open until 9 so if you need anything no help.
- Ann (5/5): Moore effort needed to clean. The price was good so the tiredness of the furnishing is understandable. Need to consider - Close to where we wanted to be. The room was big. The bedding was uncomfortable. The furnishings were tired and stained and the doors and patio were unclean.
- Kerry (10/5): - An old property in a very nice spot.
- Mark (10/5): - Clean, tidy, good view. Older but good
- Melissa (8/5): -
- Thierry (6/5): -
- Randean (10/5): - It was a clean room. Room could use some updates. Very nice view of the lake and courtyard. Mini golf was fun.
- Jacqueline (5/5): Good location.. Needs lots of updating - Great location with lovely view Room was not clean. Lots of cobwebs and dirt around windows and doors
Needs lots of updating. Beds were very soft
- Randine (7/5): It was okay for one night -
- Martinovsky (3/5): - Guy at the reception was nice It looked way better on pictures., room was stinky (old house stink), no AC (it was super hot. We barely slept) they had a small $20 fan standing on a table, cage around the blades was full of accumulated dirt. On the balcony, dirty carpet, old half broken plastic chairs. This place should be priced at like $50/night tops.
- Brett (6/5): Nice View - Hotel is in desperate need of a renovation but that is reflected in their pricing. Would stay again based on their rates.
Beware, the rooms have no air conditioning and some noise transfer between rooms.
Staff were very helpfull replacing my tv that wasn't working.
Staff were friendly
- ramkhelawan (5/5): - Close to Hwy and centre Room needs more light and maintenence
- DANIEL (6/5): - No air conditioner in room and fan that didn't work properly.
- Willene (4/5): - They allow smoking outside front doors of the units and on the balconies. Hot evening and I had to close the windows as both neighbours smoked and one hacked up a lung all night. Comes with coffeemaker but no cups or glasses.
- Imelda (6/5): -
- Bolink (8/5): Room with a view. - Mooi uitzicht, keurige kamer en badkamer, vriendelijk personeel. Vanaf de veranda een mooi uitzicht op het meer. Dichtbij horeca gelegenheden. Beetje gehorig maar niet hinderlijk.
- Wayne (10/5): - The place was safe, quiet, and conveniently located during my trip. A perfect spot to rest for the night—I would definitely stay here again.”
- Mark (10/5): - It was comfortable, clean and quiet, which is all I need.
- Darlene (4/5): - The sheets were stained or dirty, there was food in the dresser & fridge. The bathroom floor had some brown spots, not sure if ut was dirt or stain. The staff were wonderful.
I dont know what bit me while I slept but i looked like I had the measles that was extremely itching when I left 2 nights later (spiders, fleas, a swarm of starving mosquitoes or bed bugs) I had lots of bites very close together.
- LIEZL (6/5): It was just an overnight stay so nothing much to say. - It is accessible No AC unit. The window screen almost fell apart unsafe for our pets. No exhaust inside bathroom.
- Jennifer (10/5): - Super easy and pleasant check in, easily accessible room, clean and quiet.
- Susan (9/5): -
- Flavio (7/5): Good price but needs maintenace and restoration - The yard of the location is very nice, near the lake and there are many flowers outside. Location is good. Doesn't have air conditioner, room was not omfortable, bed sheets are old and worn. Bathroom not comfortable as well.
- Timber (8/5): - Older motel but very well kept. Superb staff and... they have mini golf
- Andrew (3/5): Won’t stay there again - It was very cheap It was very dirty and noisy
- Mackenzie (10/5): Loved our stay - Beautiful view, cozy room, great service, great vibes
- Wayne (6/5): - It's what you would expect from a motel. The reviews were good so I thought it would be better considering the price.
- Barbara (4/5): - Very old . Bed was uncomfortable..for the price it wasn't worth it
- Albert (10/5): - Our stay their was perfect up early to get our vacation started watched a pair of baby deer play, in the evenings listen to mama duck call her baby’s as they swam towards her, staff was very polite and happy to meet you
- Tammy (9/5): Convenient, older value priced facility in Williams Lake. - The motel was conveniently located and an affordable option. We stayed just one night, on a four day road trip from Alaska. The room had a slight odor when we arrived but seemed to dissipate after an hour or so, it could have been from the products used.
This is an older property that could use some updating.
- GAIL (8/5): - Nice place.
- kathleen (7/5): Prima hotel voor doorreis - Geen charmant hotel, maar wel goede prijs/kwaliteitverhouding. Goed op doorreis, om 1 nacht te verblijven. Erg druk in ontbijtruimte, niet erg veel plaats
- Kelly (8/5): - Great staff!
Poor internet, dated room.
