This place is shabby on the outside and on the inside, But don't let that put you off. It is incredibly clean and is a great value. It has a great locations (for instance located between Tim's and McDonald's and a short stroll to Shipyard Park which is always busy with local events. And the Big Bear Eatery and Taphouse is located just around the corner. Our room had a full kitchen so we purchased groceries and made our own breakfasts and packed a lunch when we felt like it. Two notes of caution. The air conditioner needs some upgrading and the bed, while comfortable, needs some stabilizing.

Front desk okay checking in. The $200 deposit for potential damage is utter bull. They say it is only a pending pre authorization but it is still out of my account technically. Reading the rules in the elevator will take you 3 round trips to your floor. A dress code, no jumping or climbing out windows. What I loved most of this family hotel is the sign that stated the owner and staff are armed. Rooms are old and dated and above a 24 hour Laundromat. Parking lot has junk all over and around it.

This place was definitely not as advertised. There was no breakfast or restaurant when I asked for a coffee they told me to try the gas station nearby. The outside looks rough and the hallways were dark on the inside but the rooms were pleasant enough and clean. Didn’t realize we needed to tell them we needed cleaning. The cards were confusing to use. Our window opened had no screen so that was a bit scary on the third floor with a child and the view was a dumpster and a lot of abandoned rvs and if you couldn’t find parking in the front it didn’t feel overly safe leaving my car out back. Front staff were very friendly and sweet though and the hotel was close to everything downtown. Was definitely expecting a bit more though.

The staff were really helpful and kind. They let us access our room three hours in advanced since it was already cleaned which was appreciated with all of our backpacks we had to carry. The hotel is a bit on the older side, so is the linen and rooms but its one of the cheapest hotels in Whitehorse so id say its fairly priced. Linens had hole and some stains but they all smelled clean and were clearly freshly washed so we Didnt mind. But again we took the cheapest room so we arent complaining. The owners seems to be progressively updating their rooms and theres seems to be modernized room on their website so I guess it is just a matter of Time before the older rooms are improved. Thanks again to all the friendly staff weve encountered

Good items - major laundromat adjacent to hotel, price for this area. Bad- the one major issue is rooms do not have individual a/c control. They have a thermostat but it can only heat the room ( not tested we were staying in June) but it can not control the a/c. Sign outside hotel says a/c and free WiFi. THE BUILDING has A/C, the rooms have a vent which a/c trickles through but the ROOMS DO NOT HAVE A/C. We were on third floor and it was 70 degrees so the room was HOT. No fan or anything. Room was okay, it was dated but you get what you pay for. Location good, big parking around back.

Arrived at first room and noticed that light bulb and lamp shade we broken off of lamp. Then discovered that fridge door would not close because too much frost had built up from freezer and the discovered that the portable a/c unit was inoperable. Went to front desk and requested a different room. The front desk assigned me a different room. Upon entering it I discovered that it had no a/c! I decided that I would open window and just make do with the room. Upon opening window discovered it had no screen and road noise was very loud. Returned to front desk and advised that room was unacceptable. Manage then told staff to upgrade me to third floor. The room had a/c, was comfortable and clean. Stay was good, but took three different rooms to make things acceptable!
