Basic but clean and comfortable. The Whifs was amazing both staff, value and service.

Pick somewhere else in Drumheller!

Rooms were dirty, shower was broken, and the AC wasn’t working. The restaurant was ok.

2/10 Poor

Disappointing

We walk and it smells of cleaning products,which we were okay with, check the sheets which were clean so we were very happy to see. We left and when we got back, the bugs came out. Place needs a deep clean, bathroom fan is disgusting, only one towel/cloth per person, carpet needs to be replaced, no hair dryer as advertised. Was a decent price but was not impressed and will not be back

Reasonable price and great Indian food!

The Indian food at the restaurant on site was fantastic! The room is very old and not maintained. The pillows were flat, and the bed was okay for comfort. My friend and I had a great time anyway because we hadn’t seen each other in months, and we didn’t care that the room wasn’t perfect.
Linda, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

Is a good spot to stay if you have children and need a suite to prepare food. Also, the attached restaurant serves good meals and reasonably priced. Good location too.

Won’t be back

Beds were uncomfortable and wore out. Turning in bed created large amount of noise. Motel in dire need of repair and upgrades
Judy, 3-night trip

4/10 Fair

The pictures on site did not meet the reality of room 28. Onopening the door there was a musty smell. The carpets were full of stain. Not all windows opened, the air conditioner was very loud. Had coffee fixings but no coffee pot. No toilet paper on the holder. However bed sheets were clean. We could not wait to get out of there. Will not stay again!
Nancy, 1-night trip

4/10 Fair

The room was very run down and worn out.My wife started herself . It felt like there were fleas in the room of some kind.We checked everything including looking for bed bugs.The carpet was really old.The walls were dirty. The bathroom had a cement corner low to the floor by the toilet that was a hazard.This motel requires a huge upgrade and renovation.

I spent one night there in April 2025, with my sister. The rooms are comfortable and clean. The staff are very friendly. The on site resteraunt is charming with really good home made food and amazing staff.

Hotel was good. Bed & pillows good. The place is a little outdated. Could use new carpeting as it is dirty. Check-in was good. Small room, but for the price good. Grounds are clean.

Right on the highway to the Tyrell museum. Busy road even at night. Thin walls make it a noisy sleep. Floors are definitely not level or solid but they keep it very clean.

The rooms are very old and dingy, would benefit from updating.

This place was very clean, the staff were very friendly and gave us idea for places to visit. The lights in the bathroom were flickering none stop and the tap in the sink was falling off if we were pushing to hard.
