Guest Reviews

• Matt (10/5): -
• Jamie (3/5): - Location Paid for a queen & got a double bed. No smoke alarm. For was very hard to close to use the deadbolt. Breakfast was basically cereal , cheap white bread & yogurt. The pancake maker didn't work.
• Matt (10/5): -
• Srdan (10/5): / - / Breakfast add eggs, some salad and few other salty groceries.
• Dolores (9/5): It was easily accessible and comfortable - The convenience easy access Just minor things nothing that would make me not stay there again
• Steve (8/5): - Was renovated for the most part. Some scratches on the walls in the room and some minor wear and tear on the carpet, but nothing too much to actually complain about. Probably used to be a motel The price was alot for a super 8. 150 a night? I've had cheaper at the super 8 in Calgary and Edmonton.
• Oleksandr (8/5): Very good but no breakfast. - Just coffee and no any tea Very nice and clean.
• Jula (8/5): -
• Acadia (5/5): comfy beds but don't rely on breakfast - beds were comfy and having a place to cook was a nice option breakfast needs to be fixed only toast available no milk for cereal waffle maker down very limited selection
• Jocelyn (5/5): -
• Loree (6/5): - Could be cleaner
• Lazarov (10/5): - It was very clean and comfortable. Loved the little kitchen area
• STEWART (3/5): - it was terrible , both the pancake machine an toaster didn't work
• Paulette (6/5): - Lack of customer service. Couldn’t find where to eat breakfast. Very poor set up. My sister and I were not impressed.
• Yvonne (8/5): - Some guests don't seem to realize that others don't appreciate their loud conversations outside the front window early in the morning. American tourists, we suspect! We used to live at a CN rail divisional community, so the train wasn't as much of a disturbance in this case.
• Viviane (8/5): - The rooms are well appointed (except for cutlery and dishes. However, the housekeeping is lacking. The common areas such as stairs are dusty and dark. The vending machines are a joke. Other than that, your average roadside hotel.
• Lydia (8/5): - The property is easy to access and near where we want to go. The guy at the front desk was more than helpful. He really did a good job assisting us. On the other hand, it wasn't so clean, there was a smear of poop on the side of toilet seat when we arrived. The breakfast can be improved.
• kim (5/5): Ok - Bed was comfy Bathroom wasn’t cleaned properly no toilet paper and tissues replenished breakfast was poor pancake machine not working and always waiting for things to be restocked bread ,cups,spoons ect when people need to get up and go
• Janet (8/5): -
• Modelyn (2/5): No comment - Nothing Everything. Poor service and it’s very expensive
• kristy (6/5): - The woman who cleans here was super sweet and has many responsibilities. Our room was spacious and had a very nice new shower. Sadly the walk ways were dirty and unkept. The breakfast room was a sad story. No pride of ownership shown there. No napkins or wipes. Pancake machine not working. Cereals not topped up. Milk past due date and spoiled. No tea. The floor under the coffee machine is rotting from water damage. Counters sticky and dirty. That part was very dissapointing. There are lots of trains that go by here, but only noticed the noise one one morning out of 3.
• Kelvin (8/5): - An average motel, but clean. Clean linens & room was clean. But water on the floor from defrosted mini-fridge. The complimentary breakfast was very limited. Pancake maker did not work. Toaster did not do a good job of toasting the bread. So no hot breakfast options.
• Carol (2/5): - Poor communications, especially as to what was were, how to operate tv, how to connect to internet.
• Rudenko (9/5): -
• Nolan (8/5): - Good experience
• Darlene (8/5): - Very clean room
• Rhea (8/5): - Nice spacious room. Clean,liked the kitchenette. Check in wasn't great as front desk guy wasn't welcoming. Advertised free breakfast was not offered, as front office was locked and no one available in the morning.
• Erin (3/5): Did not meet expectations, only one wall of outlets worked. Tv and fridge not usable - That we had a bed to sleep on Only one wall of outlets worked the rest did not. Couldn’t even use the tv or lamp because of plug location. The fridge was also not usable because of location in room and it was one of the reasons we chose this hotel was for the fridge. The room floors did not feel clean either.
• Sharalee (10/5): - Very kind people.
• Tammy (8/5): - Quiet, clean and comfy bed. All we needed for an overnight stay. Wifi code didn’t work properly, but not a big deal.
• Taletta (8/5): Very good -
• Suzanne (8/5): - The hotel room was comfortable but is dated in the stairwells. Breakfast was very sparse.
• christel (6/5): - Some hair in the bed. Nasty. Was given clean sheet
• Patricia (10/5): - This hotel is pretty good for the money. It was quiet and has a cute little kitchenette… I had read other reviews that said it kind of lacked dishes and silverware so I brought my own!! The little coffee pot was kind of broken, but I figured out how to use it The beds are so comfortable. We like that part that air conditioner works very well.
• normand (8/5): - Room were spacious and staff were very polite
• James (8/5): - very relaxing after driving 8 hour in smokey conditions. quiet even with the train tracks across the riad
• Courtney (5/5): Stay was ok, clean enough, bed was comfortable - Decent price The smoke detector was missing. It looked like the door had been kicked in before as the door trim had been cracked in half and screws back on. The plate that the chain slides into was still on the door but the chain itself was missing. There was still a deadbolt. It was just alarming to see, probably should have gotten a new piece of trim and removed the plate.
• taramM8436HD (6/5): Decent for price - All in all was decent for last minute and on route. Clean comfortable beds. That said, we were surprised there was a breakfast room, then disappointed when kids couldn’t have cereal due to expired milk by 3 days and we couldn’t make coffee due to little creamers were solid inside them so also gone bad.
• Hyeongkuk (10/5): - It was clean and quiet so I rested comfortably.
• Masudul (8/5): - Room was good but breakfast item can be improved
• Bonnie (8/5): - We were there for a funeral. The property was very clean and I would stay again but we spent minimal time there which I am sure you understand.
• Rocklyn (4/5): Would not choose to stay here again! - We were travelling with 2 other couples and we were all very disappointed with many aspects of our stay in the Watrous Super 8. The gentleman who checked us in was civil but not necessarily friendly, but he did assure us he would be available 24/7 if we needed anything. When looking for tea bags (which are generally available in every hotel) he did not answer his phone and when we went down to the office the door was locked. This happened a couple of times during our 2 night stay…he was not available 24/7! The public spaces of the hotel were filthy…the staircase leading to the top floor hadn’t been vacuumed in months, the hand rail was no longer attached to the wall at the top (a safety issue) and the lighting was very poor especially at night. The room itself was acceptable and the bedding was clean. But one of our rooms had no area for hanging clothes. There was evidence of a shelf and closet rod having been there but it was apparently broken off and never fixed again….so we had to hang our clothes on the shower rod. The breakfast room was not exactly clean and the breakfast consisted of orange juice & coffee - no tea - and we had to open at least 10 creamers before we found one that was not congealed. There was toast and the usual spreads, cereal (the milk was past its best before date), and yogurt… very basic. We all felt we did not receive the value for what we paid and we would never choose to stay at this hotel again unless we absolutely had no other options.
• Veryl (10/5): - All was grand.
• Miles (8/5): - More amenities would be good
• Ashley (6/5): Pleasant -
• Alveria (10/5): Exceptional -
• Verified traveler (2/5): Terrible! - Terrible service, Dirty, stains everywhere, exposed electrical. Exterior of building looked good but easily the worst hotel I’ve ever stayed at. Never again.
• Grace (10/5): Exceptional -
• Verified traveler (8/5): One night stay - Breakfast was very minimal. No one at the front desk when I went to check out. The beds were comfortable and the room was clean but the room was worn in places (rug, scratches on walls etc) Overall it was a good place to stay with my two kids for a night and the price was reasonable.
• Darrell (3/5): Poor -
• David (8/5): The hotel was a nice . Would say there again but not in that room next to the stairwell. - Close to the manitou hotel spa The room located on second level adjacent to the stairwell. The stairwell door slammed as people entered and exit. It was very loud and shook the wall when slammed. Our bed was against that adjacent stairwell wall and woke us up a few times late at night.
• Ardena (6/5): - It was an ok place to stay.
• Art (4/5): - Office was always closed. Couldn't get my receipt at check out. Left a message but no reply.
• Ray (8/5): - Needed to clear snow
• Darrin (10/5): Excellent - Easily found right off highway 2…room was clean staff was courteous! There was nothing to dislike
• Carman (6/5): - Train main line across street, not for light sleepers. Hot tub started up randomly at night, quite a start.
• David (4/5): - No breakfast like stated when booked
• Melissa (8/5): - Slept great. Comfy beds. Large tub/shower. Pet friendly room so the carpet around door was scratched up and not repaired. Also door lock latch was partially ripped out.
• Anthony (10/5): Exceptional - It's good It's good
• Jean (8/5): - Between the tile and the carpet, it not all level… Stubbed my toe, that turned black and blue,from the steel edge borders…
• John (8/5): - Room clean and recently remodeled. Beds good. Place clean. Breakfast OK toast, cereal, yugert, milk and juice. Plug in for cars. Refrigerator, microwave and coffee machine in room. Quiet room and area
• Stephen (4/5): - This property was not bad and would be a lot better if they had a decent manager. The manager/desk clerk was rude, could barely speak English and was of no help at all. When I went to check in all he good do was grunt and point to a sign saying the check in time. I was about and hour and a half early on a Friday morning in a small town. There were lots of rooms that had already been cleaned and ready to go. He finally conceded and checked us in. We were there for two days and had a reservation made about 6 weeks prior. I could not make him understand that I wanted to use my Wyndham rewards card, he just didn't care. He had parked his huge truck right in front of the office which in turn blocked off the handicap parking area, which I needed because of my walker and the truck also blocked of the Veterans parking spot. When we checked out on Sunday morning, about 8:30 their so called breakfast was non existant. They had a couple of containers of dried cereal and that was it. They didn't even have coffee available. The machine was empty. This place is a dump, I will never stay there again.
• MYLES (8/5): - Clean
• Martin (10/5): - Nice place and the staff are very responsive and friendly.
• Wayne (8/5): - 8
• Edwina (6/5): Pleasant - Beds were very comfortable. The room was clean but we noticed gaps around the door. The breakfast was poor. When we went at 830am there was very little left, no muffins, no milk, coffee was week. There was no one attending the office, you had to phone a number posted on lobby door.
• Donna (6/5): - We had a very large bar fridge which we needed, so we appreciated that. The room was nothing fancy, but clean and comfortable.
• Monica (4/5): - It was the only place left to stay close to manitou resort It isn’t bad just there’s no staff we had to call for them to drive from some random place and it says check in starts at 2 pm and this was after 3 it was pretty inconvenient
• Jackie (8/5): - Good, clean, well kept accommodations.
• Jessica (6/5): - I have stayed at this hotel before. The first time was in 2019 and it was a great experience, so we were excited to stay again. This experience wasn’t the same as last time. Our room did not have a kitchen this time and the included breakfast was subpar. My kids were looking forward to having the pancakes, but the machine did not have any mix in it. Only found that out by actually starting the machine. There was no note saying it was out of order. Other than that, the stay was fine for the time that we spent at the hotel.
• Stacy (8/5): - The room was clean. Nice having a kitchen area.
• Lucie (8/5): - quite a difference with the wingate/wyndham in lethbridge this one is 1. very noisy with the train track just across the road. 2. no safe, radio not working & the volume of the replacement doesn't work properly either! 3. hard to find front desk staff before 10am? **breakfast is not too bad!
• Greg (4/5): - They ran out of basic breakfast items, coffee was very bad. Our toilet was broken and didn't flush very well.
• Rona (2/5): - The tv had aprox two channels also the breakfast offered was moldy bread broken pancake machine and a non existent front desk person.
• Violet (10/5): - Very nice and clean. That’s the only thing I look for !
• owenbohunk (2/5): Roaches - Hotel is infested with roaches! Only solution that was offered was to move to a different room. Really hope the properly take care of the problem. Staff didn't seem too concerned. The supervisor lives at the hotel but takes a long time to respond and you have to call a phone number to get a hold if them. Had to put all my clothes in garbage bags to take home and hit wash the Immediately. Would kit recommend.mend this hotel and definitely will not be staying there again.
• Tena (6/5): - It was an average stay- beds small room was also small
• Prystavka (10/5): Exceptional -
• Olga (8/5): Very good -
• Chih-chien (7/5): Good -
• Chih-chien (7/5): Good -
• Carmen (10/5): Always a great place to stay. - With the economy as it is we like to stay here because we book a room with a kitchenette. I suggest you bring your own dishes and utensils. We washed after each use. We brought easy food from home. If you forget anything there's a COOP store. You can access your Netflix account with their smart TV. The room is always clean. They use a room freshner, which for me, is a bit over powering. You have to untuck the blanket at the bottom of the bed if you like it up high on your body.
• Randy (2/5): - The room had an odor (stunk). A few crawling insects. Train tracks right across the road and cross country trains passing all night long. Over priced for the location. Uncomfortable bed. Very poor sleep. Breakfast really sucked. It might as well be a free breakfast because it wasn't worth anything, garbage. Cheapness and quality SO common with most motels in Canada now being owned by south Asians. I'm SO disgusted with the way things are I will definitely support privately owned Bed and Breakfast accommodations if at all possible from now on. Deserve gets what deserve gives.
• 609prestonr (10/5): Great place to stay. Might not want to get out of bes - I choose to stay here when I pass through on my business trips, the staff are extra friendly, the beds are comfortable, and the pillows are perfect. Best part is they have a kitchenette to keep travel costs down, and a continental breakfast available from 6-10. I would highly recommend if you’re in the area.
• Cristina (10/5): - It was nice to have kitchenette in the room. Bed was comfortable and room was clean.
• Colin (7/5): Good - Location was great. Tmwe were under the impression there would be a hit breakfast. There were pancakes, coffee and toast but the rest was cold.
• Eric (2/5): - Room was not cleaned upon arrival. Bed had been slept in, not made and the last patrons head indent still in the pillow, towels were dirty, garbage wasn't emptied, old coffee in the pot and none left for me. Advertised as a kitchenette, it came with an oven but no oven safe cookwear, only had one fork, and no dishsoap to wash your dirty dishes so I'd assumed everything there had been "rinsed clean".
• Korawit (10/5): Exceptional - Front desk guys are very welcoming and help for any requests. Recommend for this place to stay.
• jon (10/5): - Close to everything.
• Claire (10/5): - Handy location for our needs
• Donna (6/5): - Beds were very comfortable
• Lynne (7/5): Good -
• Hamidou (5/5): Overpriced for this service. - Bath towels were clean & free parking spot. The number of flies in the ROOM and the breakfast room whose door should be closed. The breakfast room should also be cleaner and kept in perfect condition to avoid the flies.
• Sheila (10/5): - Checking in was very smooth
• Fengyan (5/5): Passable -
• Kevin (10/5): Good hotel - Very clean and updated rooms. Bed was comfortable. Easy check in.
• Kathryn (10/5): - The room I had with a queen bed, full kitchenette and air conditioning was very clean and smoke-free. Carpet was new. Bathroom was modern and had a blow dryer, soap, shampoo etc. Flat screen TV was a good size. Free Wi-Fi. The window could be opened for fresh air and it had two sets of roller blinds - one semi-sheer and one opaque for privacy and room darkening. The bed was very comfortable. Bedding was clean, fresh and good quality. My only concern is the bedding seemed to have been washed in a laundry detergent with a fragrance or dried with fragrant dryer sheets - rather than being fragrance-free which is what I prefer. Stairways were not as well lit as I would like for my older eyes and transition lenses (which take time to adapt from a bright outdoors to a dimly lit stairway). As for breakfast (included in the room rate), there was a good selection of cereals, yogurt, juice, toast, muffins, oranges, apples, pancakes (made fresh by machine) and fresh coffee with real cream or milk, sugar and sugar-free sweetener. There were also individual packets of syrup, jam, peanut butter, butter and honey. The location was within a refreshing walk (several blocks) of downtown Watrous or a short drive to the lake and resort. The hotel is near train tracks but there was no whistle/horn blowing, and I didn't hear the trains going by with the AC fan turned on in my room. All in all, it was a safe and comfortable stay in this hotel which provided everything I needed and expected.
• Shawna (10/5): Great road trip stop - This is a great and convenient motel. It was clean, comfortable and has a full kitchen. Great spot to stop on a road trip and a short drive to Manitou Beach. Recommended for road trip sleep spot.
• Jeffrey (10/5): - Very clean and friendly staff.
• Peter (7/5): Good -
