An older property but very well maintained. Facilities were spotless and the room we had was quite spacious and comfortable. Cost was very reasonable so we were pleased with what we had for an overnight stay.

Order place, renovated, very nice and clean. Very good people to deal with we could not figure out how to bring the heat down, but that was no issue. I recommend this place to anybody who has a budget to stick to.

Room was clean, bed comfortable and with bedroom being a separate room inside the suite toward the back, I did not notice traffic noise. Check in staff was pleasant, and recommended a restaurant for supper. I would stay here again when travelling through.

Bring a pair of ear plugs if you sleep light as it is close right beside the busy road. Other than that it is a decent motel and good for your bucks.

Raymond, Okotoks

Liked: Cleanliness
Shower diverter did not work as it sprayed medium from the shower head and still gushed from the tap. I was in room 101 which has two large bedrooms. One had an IKEA sling back chair which was only for a smaller person. The room with the tv had no chair at all. No place to really watch tv. Very convenient and a place I would strongly recommend with some minor tweaking.

Disliked: Staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort
Booked this room based on pictures and reviews. The room smelled musty and moldy. Opened the window to hopefully bring in fresh air. All you could hear was highway traffic. Closed the window and turned on the air conditioner only to find out it was worse than the highway noise. The bed was totally uncomfortable. And…. The door has a window where the light totally shines in. Ended up hanging the bathroom towels over the door to darken the room. Oh… did I forget to tell you we had no internet. Highly disappointing.
