Stayed here in December 2024, on my way from Ottawa to Calgary, via the USA. (Ottawa / Sault Ste Marie / Grand Forks / Calgary) via (if i can read this correctly) "Moose Jaw, Saskatchewan" Hotel just got renovated, and is pretty much up there at the top of any 2-3 star hotel you can find. Guy at the front desk was very helpful and courteous (at an 8pm check-in) to note: there is a nice bar with good food and beer near by: Speedway 805 bar and grill, go for the hazy IPA, good food and friendly service.

The breakfast was not anywhere sufficient. Toast and yogurt is not enough. The beds are TERRIBLE. The equivalent of sleeping on a floor. The hotel inside is clean. I really like that the floors in the rooms aren’t carpet.

This is a budget hotel. It is basic. That being said, the room was clean and comfortable. The free breakfast was adequate as it offered yogurt, fruit etc. We appreciated the free 24 hour coffee. We would stay here again.
