The beds are terrible. Small lumpy pillows. We were given a non-smoking room but when we walked in, the room smelled strongly of cigarette smoke. When we brought it to the attention of front desk, he accused us of smoking in the room and creating a story to not get fined. As the night went on, we realized the ac unit was pumping the smoke in from people smoking outside. (We had a corner unit with the staff room underneath.) I woke up with a borderline migraine and terrible body pain. Thankfully there’s a pharmacy right next door where I could get some medicine, or else we wouldn’t have been able to continue our journey home. Would not recommend.

Barely Better Than Sleeping in the Car

This motel was essentially just a place to sleep…and not a great one at that. On our last day, we discovered a large gap under the AC unit, which explained the bugs in the room. At first, we feared roaches, but they turned out to be maple bugs. One bug kept us up our entire first night, disappearing behind a loose bathroom board. If there had been other hotels available, we would have left the next morning. Check-in was fine, though the staff weren’t especially friendly. Our room was located down a dim, unsettling hallway that made my kids uncomfortable. The floors felt dirty, and my feet were blackened from walking barefoot. The bathroom floor was soft and squishy, the hair dryer was dusty, there was no tub plug for bathing kids, and water stains dotted the walls. A random bobby pin on the sink suggested cleaning was not thorough. The surrounding area also felt a bit sketchy, with people openly smoking cannabis near the entrance and its smell drifting into our room through the AC gap. Overall, it was marginally better than sleeping in our vehicle, but I wouldn’t stay here again.

Location location location! The property is a little dated but being right in the heart of downtown able to walk to restaurants, stores and attractions is fantastic! Plus only a quick 10 minor car ride over to the Royal Tyrell museum. If you're in Drumheller and not planning to spend all day in your hotel, this is perfect. Would definitely stay again when in Drumheller! Bonus that our room had a third bed, as finding accommodations for a family of 5 isn't always easy!

Yelling in lobby

First off parking is not good, if the lot is full you have to park in the street but they let you know that is free. Breakfast is not terrible but not great. They have a sign on the fridge saying “one per head”. Assuming that means the yogurt. So free breakfast but limited. No hot food options. But the worst thing was listening to the lady at the front desk yell at a customer because he said the coffee machine in their room was not working. Instead of saying “thank you we will check into it” she let him know he was probably using it wrong and she would show him. When he said but it doesn’t work she starting yelling yes it does repeatedly. And all this happened in a full lobby of guests trying to enjoy the limited breakfast. We will not stay here again and will not recommend.

There is an extremely rough clientele hanging around, coming and going from the rooms at all hours. I'm pretty sure someone is selling drugs out of room two oh nine. All night people would go to the room, knock, talk in hushed voices at the door, then leave. Condition of the room was poor. The bathroom floor was filthy, everything was covered in a thick layer of grime, and, as my husband said, it smelled like someone dumped a can of tuna behind the mini fridge. The bedboth had hair in them and the sheets on one bed were badly stained.

The beds were comfortable, the room was clean, the shower pressure great, & the A/C was perfect. Great location in proximity to restaurants, shops, and taverns. The only improvement I could think of is more coffee available at the office in the morning. Great place to stay.

The hosts at this property do not know the area around the hotel and kept insisting that we "use Google Maps" to find them. The breakfast options are VERY limited. The beds are fine and parking is adequate. Also, this is a two story building with no elevator or porter. If you have any mobility issues (as my 90 year old father does) you must be aware of this.

Overpriced stay

The room smelled of stale cigarette smoke and was not very clean. The air conditioner was very loud. It was very expensive for what it was.
