This was literally a very last reservation for us. We made the decision to stay in Whitehorse and 20 minutes later we walked in. It was a perfect room for our family of 3 that has been on the road for 35 days with over 6,000 miles. Good laundry, quiet room, the staff was great and all the beds were comfortable!

Truly excellent and restful. Made my reservation via expedia, and because they didn't have any other pet room available, they put me in a two bedroom apartment at less cost. Additionally, staff were more than helpful, very nice stay here, thanks!
