The location of the Empire Motel was great, just a 2 minute walk to the beach. The room was spotless and the bed was comfortable. The pool and courtyard were really nice and the use of the barbecued and tables in the shade of gazebos was very convenient. The owner (Estelle, I think) was so nice, we really appreciated her cleaning a room right away so that we could check in early after a 9 hour drive. We will definitely stay here again the next time we’re in Penticton.
