Give it a miss

This location was not the best, the room and bed were comfortable, but we were put in the room just of the reception area. It was not to bad except for the extractor fan just outside the window, and the fact that next to the hotel was a drive thru Tim Hortons, which was quite noisy, but the noise of the air conditioning unit drowned out the majority.

Sandman in Smithers is a good place to stay, but like many smaller properties, the front desk is not staffed 24hrs per day, and is showing signs of wear. When I first used the toilet, it took at least 10 minutes to fill. I eventually checked the tank and the flapper valve was not properly connected. Unfortunately, I was not able to fix it, so using the toilet required a bit of finagling if I wanted the tank to fill as it should. How could housekeeping not notice this and report it? However, the Sandman is conveniently located, is right next to a Tim Horton’s, and has very comfortable beds. I will definitely stay there again.

Overall the room and property were fine. Our room was a little outdated, but clean. They seemed a little understaffed. I put up the door hanger for maid service, which was ignored. However, they promptly brought us more towels when I called. When we checked out, I was told there was no one working the front desk that morning and that I should just leave the keys in the drop box.

Check in is suppose to be at 4pm and our room wasn't ready until 4:50. We left for a half hour and then waited another twenty minutes in the lobby and were told they just have one cleaner(not my problem). We had to quickly throw our stuff in the room and run to where we needed to be instead of unwinding for an hour.
