Boundary Creek Motel — Hotel in Greenwood

Coming from Port Moody area,we(double occupant) decide to go for a one to two weeks long road trip into the region of Kootenay , B.C. We drove through Greenwood two years ago from Grand Fork and it seems to us to be a neat little historical town,but this time it was just a lay over to drive further east.There are only three choices for a motel to stay in Greenwood,...Boundary Creek Motel and RV Park...,Evening star ...and Greenwood Motel & RV Park.We pick the Boundary Creek Motel and RV Park.It was the only place that had a dog friendly suite available.From the outside other than a fresh coat of paint... this place has the same dated looks from the 60s-70s era...Once we walk into our suite,this place...really hasn't been updated or upgraded in anyway at all...Matter of fact if you want to feel what it is like to stay in the 1960s -1970s era motel ...you are in the right place. When we walked into our suite we noticed immediately an scent throughout our whole suite..not the scent that will drive the average visitor away...not the scent from a heavy perfume that will trigger my allergy to an over drive.Its just has that 1960s-1970s smell.Its got a tube TV and a older style kitchenette ..All these are functional.We feel one of the reason why anyone would want to spend a night in a place like this???For us was to get some decent rest from a comfortable bed.The bed in our suite really delivers.. it felt really comfortable and supportive...from what we can see...it has a pretty high quality mattress,but isn't that a standard equipment for you to rest on during your stay??? We feel the price we paid for this motel was kind of high...and for the same price there are much better options...however if you are like us ,just there at Greenwood for a layover ...with a very limited choices available during the 3rd week of August....a roof over our head is better than cat naps in our car.The price we paid for two adults and a 4 lb dog who sleeps in his kennel bag was over $100.00! This is a place we would classify as your very average motel that you often find on the side of any hi-way.A smarter option we would opt for next time is to book early and drive to Grand Fork ...there are some motels there that charges about the same price with updated everything and not just the bed itself.We gave this place a 3 star rating...due to the very high quality mattress we were on.The suite we were in was suite 9...but we do not know if other suites has this same high...

After reflection ...

I'd stay there again. Can't complain about the cleanliness. It was spotless. Also had the best shower I've had in a hotel/motel room in quite a while. I probably put a hurting on the water bill as my shower went for a while before I got into the riding gear and faced unknown weather. My bad in that I only had US dollars so I spent $74US for a fairly small room when I could have had it for less if I had the Canadian bucks. Just wanted a good, clean, quiet place to doss and got it. The owner (Said) is nice, attentive, and did his best to check me in despite not knowing how to run a new piece of equipment so I could use my credit card. Hey, it's a Mom and Pop show show I guess you have to take it as it comes. Even so, check in took a bit longer than I am used to ... I guess that's what you get for a motel in the smallest city in Canada. You have to put up with the eccentricities, eh?

All in all, I had a nice quite night on a comfortable bed that was better than I have at home. I'm pretty sure that, if a motorcycle gang had showed up and partied, Said would have gotten them to quite down and everything would have been cool. The place is worth a shot...
