After a long ride through the rockies the room was perfect and just what we needed to rest up. Very good breakfast that was maintained well with the hotel being full. Lots of fast food options around the hotel. Saw families headed to pool and gym.

Hotel way overpriced for a one night stay! We paid 500 CAD for one night for a room which is worth $100 and not more. They say the hotel was renonvated in 2021 but the only parts of the hotel which look renovated are the carpet and the tiles in the bathroom. Everything else is old and outdated. The pillows were extremely old and not super comfortable. The hotel smells like spices and cigarettes. Needs a deep clean! Check in process was a mess because we had to walk to the Irwin hotel next door. Would not recommend this hotel to friends and fanily.
