Guest Reviews
- Tina (10/5): - Convenient
- Wayne (10/5): - The only thing we did not like that there was no coffee or coffee so we had to leave to soon after we got up.
- Verified traveler (6/5): Disappointed that past service not repeated - I stayed one week. This was the fourth time I had stayed there as I come to St. Albert to visit family. I had been a satisfied customer on earlier visits. This time on 2 of the 7 nights, the occupant upstairs stomped up and down the room until 3am which made it impossible to sleep. I reported this. I was required to use a coat hangar to start the AC unit each time ( I shut it off when I was not in the room to conserve energy) AND i did not complain. I asked only that my room be cleaned every 2 days to conserve time and energy. Yet when I requested an extra hour to check out, I was told that I had to pay $20 plus tax. I indicated to the employee that I found this unfair, He had been the one to whom I had reported the sleepless nights.
- Dan (6/5): - Everything was not really maintained at all in the room. Really run down, bathroom fan was full of dust and not clean at all. The bathroom seen better days that’s forsure.
- Gail (10/5): Nice little motel - Somehow my reservation, through Hotels, didnt make it to their computer. However, i had a great room tucked into a corner, recessed area. It was very quiet and private.
- Barbara (6/5): - The Motel is an old establishment and from the outside looks very old and outdated. I can only vouch for the
room (# 1 ) that we stayed in for 3 nights.
If you are looking for a place to sleep and shower this works.The room was very clean, no carpets,
fresh bedding and the staff are friendly.
Just a note there is no coffee in room or ice machines.
There is a restaurant next door.
I meet the manager and thanked her for the clean room.
I would rate it 3 1/2 Stars based on location and age of the Motel.
- Kenneth (10/5): - worked for what i needed
- Shona (6/5): - It’s ok & Not for everyone
- Rita (6/5): - We asked if it had a fridge with freezer. They said yes. No freezer. We asked for late checkout. Costs $20 per hour. There was so much dust blocking the bathroom fan. The lamp shade was completely trashed. Empty beer cans all over outside. Very cheap motel. I believe people live there not just a short stay site
- Jessica (2/5): - very unprofessional
- Teegan (8/5): - Easily found, simple check in and room was tidy. Low quality finishes and average amenities within the suite but overall comfortable enough
- Cristina (10/5): - Older motel. Nice and clean though with great staff.
- Justine (4/5): - Positives were that the bedding and linens were clean and that the wifi worked well. Negatives were that the toilet did not flush properly and was modified to decrease the amount of water. We had to find a bathroom out of our room. Barely any outlets worked or held a plug. Shower handle fell off when used. We turned the heat off but had to buy a fan because the place would not cool off. The place is in dire need of some renovations and updates.
- Misty (10/5): - Awesome place to stay with pets
- Mark (8/5): - Perfect Location for Church Services(Jesus is Lord Church St Albert), Shopping, Nearby Great Friends over the last 9 years, excellent Restaurants Nearby, Transport, access to Nearby Highways
- Misty (10/5): - Always accommodating with me with my pets and flexible for checking in and checking out. Great service as always. Continue to support.
- Stephen (8/5): A good inexpensive spot to stay overnight! - Ery clean room and pleasant, friendly staff. Motel is older and not a beautiful area lace but the price is great, room was clean. I found the bed too soft but that’s me. Everything worked and check-in was fast and staff efficient and a pleasure to deal with. Place was very quiet even though it is right on St. Albert Trail (Hwy2) and our room faced the highway!
- Verified traveler (6/5): Budget wise motel - Along the lines of you "get what you pay for", I got what I paid for, in that it was the least cost accomodation in the area and therefore my expectatioons were not high. The basic room was just that, a place to sleep for the night, with a good tv. It may not have been great, but it was not bad either and I compliment the staff for being friendly and for fullfilling my requests, while commending them on presenting a clean room, in fact cleaner than some 4 star hotels I have stayed at. The staff do their best with what they have. If you want to keep your costs even lower, utilize the provided fridge and microwave, which were sterile clean, as was the bathroom and even the tv remote control!
- Nicole (8/5): - Good value for the price
- Verified traveler (8/5): - Quiet and discreet.
- Romeo (6/5): - It was a good Motel for it's age.
- Fabrice (6/5): - I had like to know the real price in canadian dollars and not in US dollars. It is too expensive for a motel of this standing, furniture needs changing, perforated curtains.
- Don (4/5): - Room was dirty and not at all like the pictures online.
- Jim (4/5): - Badly in need of renovations and updating, not well cared for.
- Laurie (8/5): It does the job. - Good location, close to where I needed to go. Very easy check in. Not luxury but I'm not here for the hotel!
- Bruce (4/5): - Place needs a total renovation, furniture was old and has seen a lot of use, couch had a blanket covering it, ceilling was water stained and area's looked like they'd fall off. Bathtub had mold around it, evrything inside was rough, I didn't want to take my shoe's off, floor is old worn vinyl. It was $100 per night, for $5 more I could of stayed at a really nice place that I've stayed at before.
- Misty (10/5): - Clean and friendly staff. Love it’s pet friendly. Stuck on to my vet for easy access for apts.
- Heather (2/5): - The lock on the door was broken. While we were checking in our ID was photocopied, this felt very suspicious. Our room was a non-smoking room yet it stank like smoke. We had our stay refunded and went somewhere else.
- Roland (8/5): - -The staff were exceptional. The motel itself is somewhat run down, but you get what you pay for. As I was only staying to sleep for one night, it was okay.
-The room was incredibly hot, in spite of the outside temperature (4), as the AC wasn't accessible or didn't work. Otherwise, the stay was fine, and the staff were exceptional. They more than made up for any building issues.
-Given similar circumstances, I would stay again. (7/10)
- Stephanie (10/5): - Very nice receptionist and bed was comfortable
- Donald (6/5): - I stayed here last year and the room was quite nice. This year the room I had was really worn down , No coffee pots or coffee is another complaint. Want coffee walk or drive to Timmies. Have to find a different spot next time I have a stay in St Albert area
- Tom (6/5): - Did not like asking for personal id.
- Richard (6/5): - Nice and clean; however, if you are in room 6, when the fridge kicks on it will scare the hell out of you.
- Hailey (8/5): - it was fine. $100 deposit.
- Deborah (8/5): - Location was great .. a little older motel but good value for the money
- Florencia (10/5): - The room was bigger than i thought. it was very clean and it had everything we needed. We enjoyed our stay there.
- Danish (8/5): - it was in St Albert at a very convenient location for me with decent amenities.
- Zaffar (10/5): - Amazing service
- Paul (8/5): - Very friendly staff!
- Rhonda (10/5): - I like that there is no carpet. The unit needed to be aired out.
- ceora j p (2/5): - toilet would not flush. owner did nothing. hot water was hard to get and fluctuated frequently while showering. electrical set up was dangerous. one outlet had no cover the other was being used for microwave, fridge tv and cable power. lamp sometimes blipped off and on. and on top of al that there was no ice available at all. the air conditioning was not able to keep the room at 75. i was told that she could not refund when we wanted to leave and find something more hospitable.
- Joyce (10/5): - Clean,quiet room. Will stay again
- Gord (2/5): - I didnt like anything obout this place. The absolute worst place ive ever stayed. Expedia should look into this place and take it off your site
- Mahmoud (10/5): - Quite nice safe
- Shawn (10/5): - Clean
- Shawn (8/5): - Bed was a little outdated
- Verified traveler (8/5): - This motel was a great find. The bed mattress was very comfortable including clean, soft sheets. I guess it was recently purchased. The "bedroom" was spacious and included a: minifridge, microwave, desk for laptop, 2 seat eating table, a large tv with numerous channels and the bed with reading light. The bathroom had a shower and bathtub with lots of hot water, several white towels. It was spotless.
- Gerald (8/5): - The property was clean and there was a good feeling there
- Howard (4/5): - Not clean at all
- Verified traveler (8/5): - It was clean, neat and tidy.
- Verified traveler (8/5): - The room was clean and tidy. The outside of the motel could use a bit of upgrading
- Verified traveler (4/5): - Found ants in the bathroom, overall the room was not worth the $90... also the room was an adjoining room and the guest in it was a heavy pot smoker, the room smelled of it. Then I had a kid emergency at home and after an hour in the motel left without staying any nights, only thing I used was the ashtray which I gave to the front desk before I left . Unfortunately wasn’t able to get a refund but the lady at the desk was very nice and personable. May try staying there again provided there’s no ants in the bathroom and the room is not an adjoining room. Otherwise my hour there wasn’t too bad. Wasn’t able to try the on site restaurant obviously because of COVID crap. But I will try it in the future.
- Verified traveler (8/5): - For the cost of the room it was on par. Staff was friendly, plain but comfortable.
- Velocity (6/5): - The restaurant next door does not open till 10 am. Coffee available at the office would have been nice.
There are no lamps at the nightstands. Otherwise comfortable and warm so good enough for one night
- Verified traveler (8/5): - good location nice middle of the road property
the staff was very pleasant and helpful
- Verified traveler (2/5): Terrible service and ridiculous price - 5 dollars for a tiny tea towel and rude staff.
- Verified traveler (8/5): - Comfortable, older property, quiet. Will stay here again. No coffee maker in the room.
- Valerie (10/5): - It was a good place to stay. It maybe needs a few upgrades but very comfortable.? Very close to the hospital that I had to go to. The rates were what attracted me. If I need to stay at a place near the hospital I had to go to, I will definitely stay there.
- Ralph (10/5): - Nicely located close to retail district. Nice and clean with lots of parking.
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Price access to St Albert Trail
Place was clean staff friendly
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Every thing clean and good price👍 Office people were excellent and efficient
- Verified traveler (6/5): - Property was well cleaned and neat, even though the bathroom needs to be refurbished.
The TV, fridge and microwave were newer appliances.
My two night stay was quiet and the bed was fairly comfortable.
Property was in good area for easy access of restaurants, shopping and if need be of the Sturgeon Community Hospital and Clinics.
The only disappointment was sink hot water was barely tepid and shower hot water was not as hot as I like.
Property appeared to be managed by a friendly hard working couple.
- Verified traveler (8/5): - Better Price versus others in St Albert but you get what you pay for
Had to wait a while for check in, no one in office
Older building but fairly clean, main door dead bolt lock didn’t work with key, toilet water tank problem, no TSN availability on tv
I likely wouldn’t bring my wife here, was here for a men’s slo pitch tournament
- Verified traveler (10/5): - I like that is a quiet place and we were will serve and I would recommend that place to anybody. It was really clean and cozy I will be coming back.
- Tara (8/5): - It was in a good location. There was a great restaurant in the parking lot of the hotel. The beds were comfy and our room looked like it had recent updates
- Verified traveler (8/5): - It was clean and the staff where kind overall I enjoyed staying here
- Verified traveler (2/5): Do Not Stay Here - Horrid experience. They cancelled booking 2 hrs before check in, manager/owner was extremely rude, was told to go somewhere else as I was unhappy about cancelled booking. Was told it was $20 extra for early check in but would waive that fee.room was in need of a good cleaning, some things not cleaned for years, drug deals, ladies of the night, rough crowd. Got approached coming back to room from wedding, late - ran from cab to room. Unsafe. Spend the extra bucks and stay somewhere else. Or sleep in your vehicle in walmart parking lot. Zero star in every way.
- Crystal (6/5): -
- Verified traveler (10/5): - It was quiet and inexpensive. Good valve for the cost.
- Verified traveler (4/5): - Definately lower end. Other clients were scary.
Parking was difficult
- Wendy (6/5): Not great - The room itself was fair but it was sweltering hot and the so called ac did nothing!!! There also was NO coffee maker and ants in abundance also the shower didnt work properly
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Friendly staff. Close to nearby facilities. Affordable.
- Verified traveler (8/5): - Perfectly reasonable accommodation at a fair price.
- Marlo (10/5): Great price - Nice hotel, great price.
- Sarah (10/5): Awesomeness - It was warm, cozy and very clean. I will definitely stay there again when I come to the city.
- Verified traveler (6/5): - The room was clean and a great price and staff was very friendly. There weren’t really any amenities - no coffee, no hair dryer and very poor wifi. I could send an email however I could not watch a video. It was cold and there is only a sheet and a bedspread for bedding. The staff did offer to bring me another blanket though. I brought a sleeping bag for warmth and because the sheets were itchy. I would stay again because it was a good location, friendly staff and clean rooms. I will just have to remember to bring amenities. Also, the wifi was getting fixed on my last day there.
- Sean (10/5): Quick stay - Good Motel for the price
- Verified traveler (8/5): - The people were wonderful and helpful.
I would have just liked to have been able to call out long-distance from my room - the convenience , but again they were very helpful and gave me the use of the office phone and looked up numbers for me and did what they could.
They also brought an extra blanket for me while the room warmed up.
- Verified traveler (2/5): - Avoid this hotel! They charge you for old damages to the room claiming you caused it. What a joke! Crooks and theives
- Verified traveler (4/5): - the parking lot and sidewalks very icy, the room was not clean hair in tub dirty bathroom floor sand an grit,
- Verified traveler (8/5): - Small but clean rooms. Doors open to parking lot and not sealed very well so lots of outside noise in the room. Was upset to find the fridge was not plugged in. Lost food due to spoilage. One plug in for TV, fridge, microwave and cable receiver
- Verified traveler (8/5): - Close to shops. Easy parking. Friendly staff. Not fancy but for the price - excellent value. Have stayed here quite a few times
- Valerie (8/5): - Nice clean room but only two flat pillows. The bed was comfy and the service was great. Good location. Easy chick in and check out. Very convenient. Overall a good experience. I’d stay there again.
- Elle (6/5): - We have stayed at this Motel several times so we know what we are getting. The staff is friendly and welcoming. The location for our needs is excellent. The physical condition is quite dated with rather poor quality workmanship for maintenance and repairs. The bedding and towels are clean.
- Eva (8/5): - I'd like the location and overall condition. Very friendly staff. I would give an excellent rate if they would have a small coffee maker or cattle to boil water!
- Verified traveler (8/5): Adequate accommodations. - Very adequate accommodations. Clean, quiet room. Friendly people.
- Verified traveler (4/5): - Didnt like the cleaninese ,horrible the room sofa so dirty disgusting ,pillows all worn out etc etc..
- Verified traveler (4/5): - Pleasant and helpful person at front desk but motel has poorly lit outside stairwells that needed cleaning. Our unit was OK.
