I would definitely stay here again when in Slave Lake. It’s right across the street from a grocery store, a gym and lots of places to eat. The place wa clean and the bed was comfortable. The rooms were large and came with an iron and ironing board, fridge and other things one could use on an extended stay. The wifi was solid also. I only stayed one night and didn’t wake up early enough to try the breakfast so I cannot comment on that.
