This is hard to rate as the staff was incredibly pleasant and very helpful and I was so grateful for them. The room was unfortunately not very comfortable to stay in as there were hairs and stains on the bed, the toilet didn’t flush very well, the fridge stunk of rotten food previously in there, and the heat wouldn’t work at all, I froze all night as I slept between my own two blankets under the bed covers. And the door had a huge gap under it so you could hear anything outside in the hallways. It was very sad for this to be the experience in the room as again, my experience with the staff and their over and above help was a pleasure. Hoping they can find a way to upgrade their cleanliness to match their superb staff!

This was probably the worst hotel I’ve stayed at in a long time. The smoke alarm went off around 6:30am two nights in a row. My room was dirty with clumps of hair in my bed. My blanket felt like thick sandpaper when I requested a new one, it was worse than the first. The key cards didn’t work, and an employee had to escort every to their room and then them in. Room service never came. When I asked for 2 towels at the front desk, they weren’t sure if they had anymore. The breakfast was pretty sad and usually things were out. There was no fruit. Just toast, cereal, yogurt and packaged muffins. They did allow pets so we are thankful for that. If they want to stay in business, they need to improve on some key areas.

The gentlemen that booked me in was awesome. Between Expedia, the hotel and other booking agencies the hotel was over booked. We waited for a room. The room keys didn’t work at all, ever. The receptionists had to let us into our room when ever we needed in. The rooms are dated the top covers were stained, the rug was stained. At 7 am the fire alarm went off for no apparent reason. If it wasn’t for the lack of available rooms in red deer I woulda cancelled and went else where.

Room keys didn’t work. They said there key machine was down and they couldn’t make keys so every time we needed in we had to wait for someone to let in. Tv didn’t work. No remote and you could do it manually as every time you hit the volume button it asked to change the input. We were told by the front desk there were no remotes in any of the rooms and none of the TV’s worked. This I found out was a lie as everyone one we asked had remotes and working TV’s. Light bulbs were burnt out, rigs were badly stained. There was a large hole in our bathroom door and the top covers of our beds were stained and tattered. The floor of the room was very cold and drafty.

You get what you pay for. Bathroom toilet didn’t flush, noisy most of the night, garbage on the elevator, and I’m pretty sure there was blood smeared on the TV. It’s been 4 days and I’m still waiting for my $50 deposit to be returned. The only good thing about this place is as the fact that I was only there for 8 hours, checked in at 11 and left at 7. So happy to leave this place

Motel room and bed were clean. Biggest problem was that it is a non-smoking motel and people were smoking on third floor. Issue was mentioned several times to front desk and we were basically ignored. Room telephone was broken and useless.Holder for shower head was broken. Snow had melted and lots of garbage in parking stalls in front of motel.

Room was small and dirty. The mattress was old, dirty and sagging and there was pet hair in the carpet. The furnace vent pushed cold air into the room which made for a cold sleep even with the thermostat at 25 Celsius as the blankets are one sheet and a very thin blue felt blanket. Walls were also dirty. We did not attend the breakfast as it was very limited and the hotel is not clean.

Not too bad
First off the check in was hard and painfull. Not smooth but with that being said the two ladies helping me were great. However the hotel’s check in system was not great. There was zero water available to buy from a machine or available in the lobby which means we had to use the bath tub faucet to fill water bottle. The ice machine has just broke down but no temporary bags of ice were available The breakfast was the first day consisted of apple/orange juice and/or coffee and toast, packaged muffins and yogurt. On the second day they added cereal so not the best breakfast but not the worst. The beds were great and the room was clean. The room key had to be re keyed 2-3 times in order to work.
