One of the least acceptable hotel experiences I’ve had in Lethbridge (5 visits) I had to wait for 15 minutes for someone to even show up at the front desk. That set the tone for the visit. They wouldn’t even give me my room key until I paid an extra $100 charge “for the wifi” that I didn’t want and didn’t use. The room I was given was not nearly as nice as the pictures. No overhead lighting besides the entry and bathroom, unfixed water damage in the corners, and very thin walls. The lock is noticeably flimsy which is a bad concern in this town. Maybe I just got a bad one. The elevator on the 8th floor doesn’t have a working down button. The doors like to open right after closing. There is no button I saw to close the door. On the plus side, beds are very comfortable and clean, furnishings are in acceptable condition, and cleaning staff was courteous. AC and heating are fairly loud but work exceptionally well. Location is centre of the city. No complaints about that. And I’m assuming the people hanging around the building is just an issue Lethbridge has in general so I don’t hold that against the hotel. I would advise looking into other options. You can do worse, but you can do a lot better. If it weren’t for that extra fee that was not disclosed beforehand, I would be much more forgiving. That was just insult to injury.

Way out of date sandman

I feel like key card elevators in a small place like lethbridge is absurd. It’s inconvenient and sometimes takes a few tries to work. The hotel is also extremely outdated. The sandman hotels I’ve stayed in before were up to date and keep up with current needs for guests. This hotel looks like it’s falling apart. A friend came over and they said they hadn’t been to this hotel in over 15 years and it still looks exactly the same. That’s not a good thing to me. Upgrades should have been done years ago. Flies and ladybugs were always in my washroom despite the window never being open. The ceiling looked disgusting like there was water damage years ago and it never got fully fixed to look more aesthetically appealing. I gave 3 stars instead of 1 because hotel staff were lovely and my bed was comfortable enough. I just wish I stayed in a place that felt more like a hotel instead of a motel

My biggest complaint was how quickly elevator door closed. Seniors and able bodied individuals were having difficulty entering before the door closed and usual effort to stop like putting the hand out was not effective.

There was a huge stain on our bed, we requested new sheets but were only provided with a fitted sheet and a flat sheet. The towels had brown stains on them as if they were used and re-folded. The bathtub looked like it was not clean and did not use it as a result. There were stains around the toilet base.

Would never stay again. Hotel is very run down, the lounge was a joke, zero service. Area was not good, and there was a portable video trailer set up in the parking lot. Every room in the lobby required a combination.

We really enjoyed our stay, the hotel was in a great location and the staff was friendly. They even upgraded us to a king room which was so nice, but when we went in our room, all the surfaces were filthy and full of food and stains. They gave me wipes to clean it myself which was disgusting cause even the bathroom was dirty and the toilet had stains on it and the side tables were full of hair and brown stains. So I cleaned it myself which was really gross. I wasn’t given a discount or even offered a new room that was clean, not even an apology or an offer to get it cleaned. Just that we bring the wipes back downstairs when we finish cleaning it. But besides that, we enjoyed our stay. We would stay again but next time, I wouldn’t clean the room. I will just ask for a new one. I pay for a clean room not to have to clean someone else’s mess.
