It was clean. Pool was lovely. The staff were friendly. The BBQ's were awesome and the upper deck seating was very nice.

The place was decent. It felt like they had good intentions and good effort, but lacking at times. It felt like they were in between renovations and could feel the old with the new.

I like the fact that it was quite clean. And the courtyard and the room, were both spacious and nice.

Nastiest place we have ever stayed, first room was nicely renovated and we were so glad to arrive after 10 hour drive but then we noticed mouse poop on the bed, half used roll of toilet paper, dirt and grime in the fridge, on the stove, microwave, long black hairs in the utensil drawers, floors were nasty, black stains and brown stains all over blankets and sheets, long black hairs on the pillows. We immediately were so grossed out and went back to the front desk after only about ten minutes in our room. The front desk guy working was not apologetic at all. Just kept saying how the room was cleaned that morning and they had people in it the night before. They refused to refund me. I even asked if I could pay for first night and cancel, refused and said they could only offer me a different room so we agreed to go look as I could not afford to lose the $1300CAD as a single mom of four. So we get to the next room and it’s still filthy but thank god no mouse poop. Although the handle to the fridge was missing and using a shoelace to open the door. The microwave, oven, stovetop, were filthy inside and out. Cupboards filthy. Walls, door trims, doors were filthy with old food/liquid smeared. Layer of dust on everything. Hairs in the towels. Black and yellow stained bath mat, chairs with liquid stains all over. Pillows were so disgusting, yellow with millions of stains. My kids feet were literally black after 5 minutes of walking through the room. Absolutely disgusting.

Stayed with my older teen son. Having the two "rooms" in the single room was fantastic. Check in was great and the girl at the desk was very helpful with suggested areas to check out. Only issue was the super spotty wifi (yup 1st world problems 😅) since cell coverage wasn't great on my phone.

Basic simple accommodation. Did have a bigger fridge though. Beds were a little hard for me, some may prefer this. Clean. Nice pool area. Small tv.

Our room felt very dark. It had two windows, but one was in the bedroom so the natural light didn’t reach the main area and the second window looked out on the hallway/patio where people were always sitting. We kept that window closed so people weren’t looking in. We found several cobwebs and spiders in the corners of the walls, had a dirty dish sponge, no cutting board in the kitchen and little to no hangers.. Just a couple plastic ones. The staff was friendly when we asked for replacements, but I feel like we shouldn’t have had to ask for these things. It was an alright motel, but for what we paid I was expecting a little more.

I'm typically a complainer so imagine my surprise finding a hotel with nothing wrong with it. We just spent 5 nights at this hotel and loved it. Our room was in the courtyard next to tables and the pool. It had a real community feel since people used the outside patio and Webber BBQ's quite a bit. We thought this might be noisy but it wasn't at all. We had a lovely room with a kitchen. The furniture and kitchen appliances were old style but they were clean, in excellent condition, and frankly, we'd rather have dated furniture than modern stuff with a higher room rate. The beds were firm but surprisingly they didn't hurt my old bones at all and we had excellent sleeps. The pillows were great and the pressure from the shower head was fantastic. The air conditioner worked great and was very quiet. I read below where someone said there was no ice machine - but there is one in the courtyard - next to the lobby (where there was always free coffee available). The pool was fantastic and mid day was quiet so we had it to ourselves a couple of days. The location was fantastic. For breakfast there is a Tim Hortons across the street and a Dennys a block away. It's walkable to the beach, many restaurants and the starting point for the canal's lazy river is only a block away. This is a family run hotel and you can tell they have a lot of pride in their business because the place is kept clean and they are very accommodating to their guests. It was lovely dealing with them. We'll be back!

The one person on evening was unaware the room had pool and highway view which caused an issue that wasted time but was resolved well. Harv was great and very friendly . It is older but well maintained. Felt safe and was clean and comfy

Basic but very nice staff, clean, great location and the atmosphere was great for the kids. Family-oriented and a short walk to a lot of restaurants and the beach.

I’ve stayed at a couple of different motels in Penticton, they’re all good but I’d say Sahara courtyard is my favourite. I’ll definitely book here again next summer.

The property is nothing like the photos. After the first night we saw no staff at all. The room and pool were just ok. The patio area was nice, but still looked nothing like the photos. Felt very much like a bait and switch.
