Okay, it doesn't have a ton of street appeal. It looks like a 1940s roadside motel and you imagine…read morethat the curtains inside will stink of cigarettes, Lucky Lager, and doomed affairs. But it ain't that way at all. It's impeccably clean. The furniture is nice. The bathroom is amazingly nicely fixed up. They've obviously done a lot of renovations and focussed on what's inside: good bed, good bath, floors that fell good under foot. We make the trek regularly from the coast to the Kootenays and this is going to be our regular stopping place from now on. Also: check out the pizza at Omega across the street. Very good Greek veggie.

I stayed in the blue room, where as I lay soaking in the clawfoot tub, I could look out through the bedroom window at the beautiful snow capped mountains. The floors are heated, and the woodwork detail is very nice, making it feel like a rustic cabin that is also clean and comfortable. The Red Barn Lodge is on my list of places to return to in the near future, and the nearby skiing was fantastic. The town of Rossland is small, and the locals are very friendly and easy going. My only regret is that due to my travel schedule I could only stay for one night. Next time I'll be back and I'll stay much longer.

We were there a week ago while enjoying the incredible snow that Rossland has to offer and had a…read morethoroughly enjoyable stay at Anthony and Helen's Red Barn Lodge. They were gracious hosts, making us feel comfortable in our home away from home. They did an incredible job of converting a dairy barn into an absolutely beautiful B&B. I would love to have my house decorated they way they have done the B&B. Some of the things I really enjoyed - heated floors, super comfy bed, quiet house, awesome clawfoot tub for two, delicious and healthy breakfast with more food than we could eat, and a fun tour of the place before we headed out for more skiing.

My sister, mom and I stopped here this summer, and I can only say good things about it. From the…read morevery comfortable rooms and common rooms to the beautiful gardens, the attention to detail is amazing. Marc and Mirja are incredibly welcoming and make you feel right at home. Check out Mirja's art throughout the house- it's wonderful. The bonus was Marc's breakfast the next morning. Scrambled eggs with candied salmon and fresh fruit with some sort of yogurt in it- delicious, filling and a perfect way to start the day. I would definitely go back!

Nice lobby. One of the first things I noticed about this hotel…read more Good service. It was easy to check in. Staff was friendly. Elevator was a classic with push buttons that I haven't seen in an elevator in years. The hallway to our hotel room was nice and clean The room had two double beds and was clean. They even had an easy clean TV remote for the TV set. Slim LCD TV, Telemax Hotel phone system and the bathroom clean. Wifi is a bit of a challenge. You always have to log in if you are not using the internet after so many hours. The restaurant at the end of the hallway in the hotel was a bit pricey. More on that in my next review. I like the Best Western Chain and this location hasn't let me down. The hotel is much more cheery than when you drive downtown on a cold winters dreary day in Trail.

To the location, I give 4 stars. To Aaron, he deserves a solid 5 star rating!! I called in and not…read moreonly did he do his job by working to make sure I was aware of all that was available, but he provided me with information above and beyond! He instantly earned my trust, and made the entire time we were there enjoyable by providing suggestions to what was around for a family of weary travelers. The location itself looks a little old and dated on the outside, which made me second guess the help I received over the phone from Aaron, but I knew he had my back, and when I walked in I instantly felt that the stay was going to be alright. It met our expectations, the rooms were clean, and breakfast was there for us as well. Thanks for an enjoyable stay, its employees line Aaron that will keep people returning!

We chose to meet up in Castlegar, where one family lives; we wanted a place to gather, eat, talk, play and generally hang out, as well as enjoying some local parks. One family member came on his motorcycle on a cross-country trip, others in a long car trip, one flew in to Castlegar, and another in an RV parked adjacent to our trailer. This worked very well for us. Kim was very helpful and kind; didn't end up talking to Wylie. The place is tidy, clean and well kept, with lovely flowers adding charm. I didn't use the laundry or common bathroom/shower facilities. We made some delicious meals that we shared on the covered deck, kids ran around and rode bikes on the grounds, dog hung out in the RV and on the deck (not allowed inside the trailer) and used the pet relief area. Garbage/recycling was well contained in sheds. Close to town for groceries and restaurants. Other campers/occupants were quiet and friendly. Overall, happy to spend our family time together in this place!

The staff, amenities and rooms were lovely and perfect for those wanting a true ski in/ski out experience. This was an all adult trip so I cannot speak to their programs for the kiddos but the ski school next door has several I am sure. They have snow shoes and other equipment free for hotel guests if you are interested, we only used their restaurant, room service and concierge services all of which were perfect and well priced. We are hoping to make it back this summer to enjoy this lovely in warmer weather and take advantage of their prime location for hike BC.

BEWARE, NEVER STAYING HERE AGAIN!…read more My wife and I had an absolutely horrible stay at the Josie over Valentine's Day. We were here for a ski trip and checked into a one bedroom suite for 4 nights. The bathtub did not work our first night so we called the front desk and they said they would have maintenance look at it. No one ever came, and it still did not work the 2nd day. We again called and the same thing. They said maintenance would come fix it but no one ever came. The 3rd day it still did not work and we again called maintenance. Surprise, no one ever came. We also did not receive housekeeping on our first night. The Saunas do not work so don't waste your time booking them. The stay was so bad we checked out early and moved to a different hotel. Worst of all, the Josie didnt even give a refund for the night we didnt use despite being in a broken room with broken amenities. Ruined our Valentine's Day.

Rooms were small but evidently updated. They were clean and supplied with nice toiletries…read more Front desk staff were very friendly and accomodating. There's an outdoor and indoor pool which is a plus depending on the season. There's plenty of parking. Location-wise, it's fairly close to a mall with a Tim Burtons, and a short drive to downtown Trail. It's a very good place to stay for those traveling through or visiting the area. Although its along a busy road, I could barely hear any traffic inside the room.

I stayed here after knee surgery and found it quiet and the price reasonable. Some noise from the highway was audible but it was not obnoxious. Would stay again absolutely. In summary, an average priced motel-style inn with dated (though comfortable) interior, friendly service and 5-star cleanliness.
