The environment looked unkempt. There was a strong smell of cigarettes from the entrance to the reception and hallway. Could not stay. Left and asked for a refund.
The bathroom was not clean. The night staff were very understanding and gave me a new room. In the new room the sheets were not clean and the toilet paper holder was missing. Unfortunately this is the second time I have stayed here and the experience was the same.
Too bad, lots of cockroachs in the room, we left the place on the first morning.
The only good thing, the front desck personnel were freindly and supportive.
affordable - yes
helpful staff - yes
The hotel itself is, unfortunately, a bit of a dive. Not the cleanest place.
OK for a night if you’re on a budget.
I booked 3 rooms with Expedia got to the motel after a long day of work the staff says he can see my reservation but he doesn’t have any rooms so I told him to figure something out where the mistake happened and he just told me to leave find some other place to stay.
I love the unique building. The rooms are very clean, and all the staff I delt with were wonderful. This is the best stay I've ever had in Saskatoon. I'll be coming here from now on
We had the worst stay ever in canada.It was too noisy outside and people were punching the hotel entrance door.We slept around 2 am in the morning.
The morning breakfast was also terrible.
Room was very dirty. Many people hanging around in the parking lot and in the building. Doors slamming and loud arguments past 2am. I did not feel safe.
The room was dirty. Floor felt unswept, there was gum stuck to a picture, and there was black mold on the walls of the bathroom. The bed we nice. The staff was friendly. Just a dirty place.
We were parking upon arrival and a room door opened, smoke billowed out, a drug deal took place, the buyers left, and one person pounded on door to be let in. The entire place reeked of smoke (regardless of our no smoking room). Entire place was shabby. We slept and got out. We prayed no crawling viditors joined us.

Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities
Walls in the room had chunks missing. Holes in doors. Pillows were not clean. No face cloths. Tub ledge was dirty and had long black hair. Bathroom sink wouldn’t drain. And the last straw was a cockroach.
From the moment I arrived, I was disappointed. From check in when they put through a 300. charge on my credit card, which I had to go to front desk in the morning to get a credit that showed up 3 days later. Everything in the room wouldn't of added up to 300. including the 32" tv with a broken remote. I had a room with an exterior door. There was a 1" inch gap under the outside door from missing weatherstripping. The bedspread and sheets both had burn holes in them. The area is sketchy at best. I wouldn't park my car outside my room, but luckily there was a parking spot in front of office, for the night. I had to keep reminding myself that it was for only one night.
