Reviews for Vedder River Inn
Review 1:The initial charge to my credit card was a bit of a surprise but was well and clearly handled..
Review 2:It is busy but quiet when it should be and always clean and welcoming.. It is convenient to the city and easy to find. The rates are good and staff accommodating...
Review 3:When I booked my room online I asked for a room with a bath. When I got there the man at the counter made an excuse that he hadn't seen it, and charged me an extra $23 for a room with a bath.
Review 4:They need to upgrade there appliances...to get a long 20 minute explanation why there was no microwave in the room is ridiculous. It smacks of a certain cheapness by the management.
Review 5:Clean
Review 6:Felt that it was a little over priced for the sparseness of the room and the bedding felt a little worn which made me wonder about the cleanliness.
Review 7:Beds were comfortable and we had a good nights sleep.
Review 8:Too basic. Not even a towel rack to hang up bath towels. Absolutely nothing on the walls (no artwork, pictures so felt like you were in a shoe box) Tiny TV. No furniture except a tiny child size desk with the phone on it. (no table or anything to eat or play cards at). Really tiny bathtub so shower curtain even touching you when you tried to shower. Window that opened off the bathroom, but no screen on it so the room had flies buzzing in it when we arrived to check in. They didn't clean the room for us on day two so we had to go get our own supplies.
Review 9:Staff were friendly.
Review 10:Far from the highway and the hardwood floors need to be mopped more often. I stepped out of the shower and had dirty feet.
Review 11:The rooms were very large and new.
Review 12:The room was not in good condition , well used , why does a client have to ask for more towels and to re-- clean the room@bring the condition to the front desk? does the staff not take stock?
Review 13:The staff was friendly and accomidated when given a problem.
Review 14:The fridge was not encased in a cabinet and therefore was noisy. Higher end furniture would help to justify the cost of the room. The walls could have used a scrub or a splash of paint.
Review 15:Convenient location. Safe atmosphere.
Review 16:Noisy children running, and adults talking outside their room (next to ours) woke us up, and were disturbingly loud both days.
Review 17:Staff was responsive to our unhappiness about the noise, and they were able to move us to a quieter room the second night.
Review 18:Looks fancy on outside, but rooms are very plain. Insufficient parking. Thin walls. Nonsmoking inside rooms, but smoking allowed outside the rooms. Unfortunately, the smoke comes in thru the windows and doors. A simple breakfast would have been nice.
Review 19:Convenient location for our purposes. Clean. Fairly large room. Comfortable bed. Coffee pot in room. Staff provided local maps and information needed to locate café for breakfast.
Review 20:Front desk staff was impaired, calling to her boyfriend to bring another glass of wine. Abrupt and ineffectual, it was an annoying nuisance that I didn't need after a long day of travel. Conversely, the morning staff was pleasant and informative. Couldn't get wifi to work.
Review 21:Newer facilities so they are all clean and functional.
Review 22:No microwaves on the 2nd floor. I had a coffee maker and fridge, but no microwave. Also, I find it a little difficult to actually see and get into after dark coming up Vedder.
Review 23:I love the big bathroom with double shower, quiet, secure. It is my preferred place to stay in Chilliwack.
Review 24:They could use an outdoor garbage receptacle for guests traveling with dogs (one was provided immediately when requested). Paint touch up needed in room #6.
Review 25:Friendly Staff First impression when entering room Quietness, no noise from other guest rooms. Reservation was accurate and all requests were provided.
Review 26:We did not like the "awful smell in our room. The level of cleanliness could be improved.
Review 27:We liked the friendly staff, the hotel is located close to restaurants. It is also centrally located to many outdoor activities.
Review 28:Spending nine months a year in Hotels, I get to many places. This one is on the noisy side in regards of traffic from the street
Review 29:Knowledgeable, friendly and available Office staff.
Review 30:Everyday new towels were put in the room but most of them were stained or had hair in them. Bathroom wasn't cleaned properly. Noticed that the outer bowl of the toiled had something on it....wasn't cleaned the 4 days we were there. Also not really a con but found it odd they put the coffee pot and supplies in the bathroom when there is a table in the main area.
Review 31:Comfortable beds, friendly staff and quiet
Review 32:Excellent value for your money. The property has been redone and is very clean with friendly staff. I would recommend to anyone wanting to stay on a budget!
Review 33:Can't really call it a bad experience, but the smell of cleaning fluid was quite strong. Seemed to be covering up a previous smoker in the room.
Review 34:Friendly staff, clean room, good location, comfortable bed.
Review 35:The desk clerk was snippy, abrupt when I checked in -- didn't give me a good feeling. Their office computer for guest use is AWFUL. They need to upgrade that.
Review 36:Just a really great little room -- comfortable queen, great shower big enough for two -- this could be a nice little 'honeymoon' room. It came with a microwave. Also, as a smoker was pleased they accommodate that outside. Room at the back, quiet.
Review 37:More towels please. Reminder: Never lock guests out of the office while staff take long phone calls.
Review 38:Perfect location for our business trip and great restaurant nearby – Marty's grill.
Review 39:The breakfast could be a bit better than some fruit, cake and yoghurt. The fruit juice was fruit drink. Just four seats available around a coffee table that could take eight.
Review 40:Most of everything. The accommodation is very good, the staff and owners excellent. It may not be the Ritz, but very good value.
Review 41:No heat in room in January. By a noisy busy road with thin walls and a 3month old child. No stir sticks for coffee. Remote for tv didnt work. Manger said they would phone with some kind of credit and never did. Not happy.
Review 42:Not sure.
Review 43:The road noise is a little difficult for me to sleep through, but as you are on a busy road, not much to do about it. Wish there were also microwaves in the room with the small fridges.
Review 44:The staff and facilities here are great. Excellent value for money! Location is close to lots of different dining options. A short drive to the dyke and dog park is easy if you bring a pet. The heated tile floors in the bathroom are lovely, and the in room amenities and lobby amenities are excellent. Can't say enough about how lovely the staff have been both times I have been here.
Review 45:Desk stay was pleasant and trying to be very helpful but untrained. Took 20 minutes to register when pre-booked and I was the only guest there at the time!
Review 46:Relatively new facilities, clean and quiet.
Review 47:All the towels and bedding were white. I have dyed my hair red. And I couldn't use any of your towels after a shower. And I had to blow dry my hair(which take halfan hour) just to make it so I ccould go to bed without being scared of accidentally dying your pillow cases red
Review 48:We are elderly and it was harder climbing outside stairs as the room was on the second floor. There were empty rooms on the first floor which would have been better for us.
Review 49:It was comfortable, clean and quite. The girls in the office were nice, friendy and most helpful.
Review 50:Nothing negative of note
Review 51:Great staff. Very helpful and friendly. The rooms are spacious, well equipped and clean Amazing community center within walking distance. I will be returning often
Review 52:Our room was not consistently cleaned, especially the bathroom. We had to ask for towels and toilet paper! I would book there again but be more aware of reminding staff to do a clean up daily.
Review 53:The location and price were good. The continental breakfast had fresh muffins which were tasty and better than expected ( only on weekends).
Review 54:they overbooked our room, and because we checked in later in the day they didn't have another room with two beds and I was travelling business with another co-worker,. They gave us a room with a queen and a very pathetic foamy , I was not impressed!
Review 55:Stains on bedding. Buildup of dust and HAIR around edges of floors, baseboards and bed frame....... gross!
Review 56:Nice place, well appointed, comfortable bed.
Review 57:I would have appreciated a microwave in my room.
Review 58:It was new, clean and well cared for. I had a good night's sleep and appreciated the location which was near the river.
Review 59:The laundry facilities required exact change and they had no change in the office so we had to make a special trip out just to get correct change.
Review 60:The rooms were spacious and clean. Loved the walk in shower. The staff were friendly and helpful. Close to all amenities like groceries, shopping centre, restaurants & fuel etc.
Review 61:Not easy with young children, the evening lady was not very accommodating, quite loud with younger guests partying close by..
Review 62:Clean, great area, coffee and the housekeepers were wonderful!
Review 63:Unfortunately a couple of idiots decided to have a conversation outside at 4:30a.m. Being older once awakened I'm unable to get back to sleep. Got an early start to my day.
Review 64:Good value -a clean, comfortable room for less than $90.00
Review 65:The busy traffic on Vedder Rd made it difficult to get in and out of the parking lot.
Review 66:How close it is to all sorts of outdoor activities with a pub across the street for refreshments after.
Review 67:The rooms we had needed cleaning. Bedding looked a little tired and pillows flat. Rooms didn't look like the ones advertised...generally needed refreshing.
Review 68:Location was good for our purposes.
Review 69:The sound of traffic so we wl request a room further from the Main Street - we did not realize it was so busy through the night.
Review 70:We like to stay at reasonably priced independately owned motels that have fridges in the rooms and laundry facilities on site. Staff were very personable and knowledgeable about the area. Thank you for the pleasant stay - we'll be back!
Review 71:Poor wifi. Very close to road. Very much a motel feel with no courtyard or garden "sanctuary". No tub. Could have used a microwave.
Review 72:Comfortable basic room. Good bed. Close to amenities. Little fridge.
Review 73:No fitness room.
Review 74:Beautifully renovated and clean inside. Although on Vedder Road, it was very quiet, being fully insulated. Close to Garrison Crossing, leisure centre, & dog park; a beautiful part of Chilliwack. Probably the best value for money I've experienced. Shopping centre easily accessible, as is Highway 1.
Review 75:Nothing we would definitely stay there again.
Review 76:Modern clean, comfortable and surprisingly quiet. Very friendly reception on arrival and departure. Room allocated was on the upper floor and when we realised there was no lift we asked if there was a ground floor room available because we didn't fancy carrying heavy suitcases up the stairs. This was no problem at all and we were immediately given another room.
Review 77:WE THOUGHT THAT IT WAS LACKING IN CLEANLINESS, THE CARPETS WERE DIRTY AND AND THE BEDS WERE NOT MADE UP VERY WELL...ONLY ONE BAG OF COFFEE. THE SHOWER HAD A VERY PECULIAR FAUCET AND THERE WERE NO INSTRUCTIONS IN THE ROOM ON HOW TO OPERATE IT....
Review 78:THE STAFF WERE VERY FRIENDLY AND EFFICIENT.
Review 79:The coffee tasted like dirt but other then that nothing was wrong.
Review 80:Clean room, feels like a hotel but with a motel outside. Great location there were lots of things to do around the hotel and in a nice neighbourhood.
Review 81:Wireless faded quickly as the motel filled up and eventually became almost unusable. Early morning was best.
Review 82:Very friendly staff. Booking.com messed up my reservation but hotel staff straightened things out. Place was quiet and clean and had a good bed, I slept well. Dining places and fuel were within easy distance. I would stay here again, it was a good value in the Chilliwack area.
Review 83:Asked for ground level was given second level
Review 84:Left a day earlier than planned, Lori at front desk at Vedder Inn cut through the red tape and made dealing with the cancellation very easy. Thanks Lori
Review 85:it was good just had noisy people below me but called staff n they dealt with it:)
Review 86:location for me was perfect close to river,music in park on thursday,martys food was good,donairs down from martys were excellent,close to cultus lake,vedder river.breakfast was ok at hotel its light.
Review 87:After our first night when we came home from a day out housekeeping had left a dirty cleaning rag on the dresser, a dirty coffee cup and no new packets of coffee...when I took the items down to the front desk and got more coffee, there was no offer to compensate me...I paid for a clean room and had to do the work myself...disappointing.
Review 88:Location was good, front desk was friendly. Overall a good room, simple and just what we needed, a place to sleep.
Review 89:the air condition didn't seem to be working as it was extremely warm in the room. (we didn't call anyone so our fault) No screens on the windows No coffee the last morning in the room.
Review 90:location, coffee in the room, Wi-Fi, it was clean.
Review 91:The only thing lacking as far as I was concerned was a box of tissues in the bathroom. Our room (and, I'm told, all other rooms) came with a 'fridge which was a nice convenience.
Review 92:The hotel has apparently been renovated recently. The new owner is committed to providing clean, comfortable rooms at an affordable price. The location is good, with two good restaurants directly across the street. Chilliwack is a bit off the beaten path but I'm glad we made the stop there.
Review 93:We had a bit of a problem with our room, but staff were on it right away and it was fixed. So really no problems at all.
Review 94:Staff and location were excellent, and rooms were good as well. If there were any problems, the staff fixed it right away.
Review 95:- no "do not disturb" sign. So had to answer housekeeping knock in the morning.
Review 96:- rooms clean - rooms have been updated - staff helpfull and friendly - walking distance to some really good resturants and also fast food options.
Review 97:My wife deals with an immunine system deficiency and so cleanliness is very important. Was happy to say that it was clean and comfortable and therefore made my stay even more enjoyable.
Review 98:Our room had a stark, unfinished feel to it. There were no pictures or anything on the walls, hence no homey feeling. There was no Kleenex to be found in our room, either, which seemed strange. Minor details which add to the comfort of a stay.
Review 99:The hotel has been newly refurbished, was clean and well maintained. The bed was comfortable and the location quiet. Staff were very accommodating and helpful.
Review 100:Very thick comforters that were way too hot. It would be nice if a thinner blanket were provided for the hot summer months. Noisy little fridge is located in sleeping area and should be moved to the coffee bar area across from he bathroom to muffle the noise. We had a room with 2 double beds. It would be nice if at least one bed were a queen as there is lots of room for larger beds. Lastly, we brought our own breakfast stuff so it would have been nice to have small table and chairs set to sit and eat.
Review 101:Comfortable beds. Heated bathroom floors. Spacious room. Mini fridge.
Review 102:Staff didn't know much about surrounding services eg. restaurants. Towels were threadbare. No microwave. Blinds did not work. Poor lighting. Mediocre TV. No onsite facilities eg pool, hot tub, exercise room.
Review 103:Location good for our purpose. Rooms big. Exterior nice. Heat/AC worked well.
Review 104:Dirty towel found behind bathroom door, sidewalk and room in floor quite slippery when wet, clock not plugged in or working, HVAC unit not turned on so it could not be controlled by wall-mounted panel as the sign indicated it could be, quite noisy in room near Vedder Road.
Review 105:New, convenient (to restaurants and Sardis-Cultus Lake-Chilliwack), easy to find, radiant heat in bathroom (heated floor), room amenities, duvet/comforter, parking, lots of space in room, price.
Review 106:heater would only turn on or off so we roasted all night.
Review 107:The pillows were awful.
Review 108:The room was large and comfortable the price was awesome. The staff very friendly and helpful.
