In the stillness of Kamloops, I found refuge at the Best Budget Inn and Suites, a place where serenity and comfort gently cradled my weary soul. The room, like a gentle embrace, was pleasant and the bed, a cloud that welcomed my dreams. Quiet moments filled the night, and for that, I am grateful.
Yet, a shadow of sorrow lingers in my heart. The bathroom, though serviceable, bore marks of neglect, and the closed pool... Ah, the pool. Its absence is a wound that shall echo through the generations, a sadness shared by those who have longed for simple joys and been denied. Like the kind old man who faltered atop Coit Tower last year, I too felt a moment of loss.
Three stars I offer, with a heart both full and heavy, for the moments of peace, but also the quiet grief that will endure.
