My niece was just charged $20.00 for a dirty towel! Maybe they should use some bleach, makes you wonder how sanitary any of the towels or bedding is! The rooms are outdated. I think you should look at a different place to stay!

Not the greatest experience and would defiantly not recommend. Upon arriving there were police there dealing with something and people drinking outside observing the action. Our room was outdated and had magazines from the 80’s in it. Pretty sure the mattress was also from the 80’s as it looked old and we could feel the springs when laying down. There was no wifi or coffee in the rooms. Thankfully there was AC as it was a hot night in Alberta. The door had a visible crack between the frame and there was no deadbolt. The only saving grace about the motel is that it was clean.

Trying to contact the manager

On my way to the hotel I became very indecisive because of timing (I was arriving earlier than expected & wanted to continue further on my drive). I called the hotel and spoke with the man at the front desk. I said upfront that I knew I was past the free cancellation period, but was just checking to see if it would be possible to cancel for a full refund. He told me that it was up to hotels.com. I called hotels.com (but after I checked the weather and a severe hail storm was expected in route that meant I wanted to stop driving). The representative said it was up to the hotel. So I called back & told the front desk person that I DID NOT want to cancel my reservation if I couldn’t get a refund, that I would be there within an hour. He calls me back from a different number 50 minutes later to tell me that his manager approved the cancelation for a full refund & would be sending me a confirmation email. We got disconnected so I called back on the normal line & he said that, yes, I would be receiving a full refund, that my reservation was canceled, & hung up on me to serve someone in the lobby. It has been a week. I have not received the confirmation email or the refund. I’ve called to try to talk to the manager a few times but the front desk person says they are not there & doesn’t know when they will be. I wouldn’t write a review except I have no other way to contact the manager about the front desk person continually misrepresenting the truth.

It was cheap and very friendly check-in person. Lots of road noise as its right in highway 2, which we knew & no AC, which we slso knew. After a lousy sleep the shower was spraying through a leak up over the shower rod and hitting the top of bathroom door. Shut it down and went for a soak in tub.....no stopper for tub either. Notified staff by phone so hopefully the next traveler has better luck.

It is a very old facility. The rooms still have shag carpet from the 1970's and the room smell of disinfectant. It is the only game in town however.

As a book lover this property was awesome! They had a "Free books" book shelf, and more free books in the room. There was a play park a block away. The toilet paper is top notch! A 70s style motel that has been well maintained. Beds were comfortable too. The only down fall is that you have a highway right beside it and the AC didn't work very well (but that could have been user error) all in all great bang for your buck

Beds were comfortable and had very nice comforting. Bathroom was clean but DEFINITELY needs some love. Good and quiet location. VERY poor front desk service. Seemed irritated when asked for 2 extra towels (family of 4). Two towels in room. Phone broken.
