Very good option for only 2 nights of our road trip. The TV did not work but we didn’t want to watch anything anyway. Hot showers and soap available! Town was great and there were shops in walking distance!

It really was get what you pay for. The floor was dirty beyond belief (I spilled some water and mopped it up with tissue - the was black when I lifted it up). Everything appeared old and tired. That’s said…. Microwave and coffee make with some supplies provided, and chairs and table inside with chairs outside should you want to use them. The aircon works just fine. The lady who checked us in was lovely. It’s clear that some work is ongoing in the motel as workmen were there at some point.

Older motel that has made efforts to provide all possible amenities within that framework. Clean, comfortable and quiet. They charge for pets, which I do not like, but of course they are not alone in this. Otherwise friendly and accommodating. Would stay again.

Don’t expect too much when you stay here. One window was broken. The bathtub was siliconed on multiple spaces as it was cracked. Garbage can lid was broken. Lights above bed were no longer straight and look like they were about to fall off. Bed was decently comfortable. Lots of space on the inside !

We arrived very late so it took a few phone calls with the owner to get the key, but he gamely met us when we requested! Our room was absolutely awesome - full dino decor with glow in the dark stars on the ceilings. I mean, c'mon, who doesn't want that in Drumheller, the dino-capital of Alberta? I appreciated having a second bedroom. Everything was small but serviceable, and surprisingly quiet for a motel. A fun place to spend the night.

Clean room and was far beyond my expectations of motels. Definitely feel like I should’ve paid more seeing how well-kept my room was. Their restaurant was just as amazing and tasty with amazing staff all around.
