Don’t be put off by the “hippy” demeanour of the hotel or the low star rating. The rooms are very clean and very specious. Location is perfect for food and shopping.

Filthy and unprofessional staff

We left a night early because we could not be asked to lay in absolute filth anymore. The room was extremely dirty. We went to check out and cancel the last night but a refund was not issued even though the place was horrid. The staff was rude and unprofessional from the moment we got there. One morning I care down and went to get a coffee but the cream and sugar was put away (I drink mine black so I didn’t notice). They were annoyed and then scolded me saying coffee time ended 5 minutes ago. It was an unnecessary comment to make. location is great. Room was very small. Overall I do not recommend this place. Loads of other hotels to choose from close to or in the centre. We took the hit and moved to a hotel a block away. It wasn’t worth staying the last night after how poorly we were treated.

Basic but clean and a great rate. Main downside is sound seems to travel well here. We had no issues with late night/early morning noises, but the potential may be there.

Inn Nelson

Centrally located in downtown Nelson. Friendly staff. Nice clean , comfortable rooms. Not the best for quiet, though. Sound proofing should be improved. Could hear people in the halls and the neighbours talking through the walls all night.

Parking was difficult. There is only metered parking and you have to move car every 2 hours. It is free at night and okay to leave parked over night. But town is very crowded and hard to find parking place.

I was a little surprised that there were dogs there. I was glad of the fact, I am an animal lover myself. We had a poor view (the view was the window to our neighbor) but we weren't planning on spending our days there! The beds were comfortable and the rooms seemed pretty clean!

I felt it was a fire trap. The window in my room looked out onto a weird elevator shaft area where window air conditioners backed onto. The window was strung with wire. If there was a fire I would not be able to get out of the window. I also do not feel the service from Expedia was very good. When I emailed to change my reservation no one got back to me. Not inclined to use you again.
