The Drake Inn

The location was great and the restaurant had live music so you didn’t have to go far for entertainment.

The rooms pictured were NOT what we got. Apparently some rooms have been renovated which must be the ones used on the site as our from looked like a step back to the 70’s. No major Issues but definitely misleading advertising as far as the rooms go.

Nothing, I had to go and buy slippers for the carpet and if you have a dog they give you the rooms that are the worst ones.

Disgusting carpet, rusted bathtub, rusted sink, noisy, smells like weed. The room was a sauna, and booking.com did not mentioned it was a Motel. I usually do not complain but this was horrendous. Terrible experience.

I checked in after driving 4 hours from Revelstoke over the snowy pass. I was met with unnecessary hostility from the front desk. I presented my ID and a credit card, but Judy would not turn over the keys to the room without verifying the credit card used at booking. The Jeep was packed like a sardine and that card buried deep. I offered a different credit card, but she refused. I offered to leave my ID, credit card and phone as collateral so that I could unpack the car directly into the from and then present the card she wanted. Judy still refused. She eventually took my friends card and ran that one for a 2nd deposit, rather than just accepting the card that I presented or allowing me to unpack in the room. It was immediately uncomfortable and she chose to be passive aggressive with me after 10 seconds of interaction. I have no clue why. The bar attached and the food they served was good and fairly priced with the 15% discount included with the room. The room was big and nice enough, but old. The floors are laminate without enough carpet at the door to handle the wet boots, ect. If not for the cold reception, I would be fine, but given the unpleasant interaction and high price I paid ($189 CAD), I left disappointed.
