The inside of the room was clean, an older vibe, a beautiful, soft (not too soft) bed, and a large room. Does not have a couch or table like the pictures. For the price, it was great When we checked in, we had an issue with the key, but the front desk was amazing and helped get a new room, and he did all the walking back and forth.

The dog friendly rooms are not ideal, it is cheap for a reason. But the staff working the front desk was amazing and friendly and completely understood why we did not want to stay the night.

An older property that has been updated. It's clean, was quiet. Nothing special but cheap, cheerful, and an affordable place to crash. I felt comfotable staying here the night when roads were bad. Not bad at all

A very clean, economical motel with pleasant staff. I had reserved a queen kitchenette but ended up with just a queen regular room which was okay but I really needed a fridge with a freezer of which there was just a fridge, no freezer in it. Otherwise, a decent motel for the money.

My friend and I stayed at this hotel and it was fantastic before we got settled into our room we checked the beds and they were all clean, bug free. We enjoyed having our own fridge cooktop and big sink and there was a big countertop. The beds were okay slept very well. The TV is not smart so no Netflix or anything but we had a tablet that we watched Netflix on. There was only one big plate one small plate very little silverware and one big pot one small pot and one frying pan everything worked very well for us we would be staying at this place again.

Was very happy with the cleanliness of the room, the spaciousness of the room and the price. I travel for work on a budget and have booked similarly priced hotels in red deer before to great disappointment and feeling unsafe and unclean. This motel didn’t have any of that and was the same price. This will be the motel I stay in in red deer moving forward.

Staffs were nice. Updates like the kitchenette with induction stove, counter and sink plus a regular size fridge was a bunos. We liked the wood flooring too. Suggestions: check the condition of the AC, it blows hot air, doesn't work its purpose on summer time, costs higher bills to the owner and inconvenience to your customers. Also change the old blue towels to white. Coffee maker and freebies like coffee, cream or sugar will be nice. Be true with what your signage says, none smoking. It's a recommendable place to stay when in a budget.
