Very good option for only 2 nights of our road trip. The TV did not work but we didn’t want to watch anything anyway. Hot showers and soap available! Town was great and there were shops in walking distance!

Don’t expect too much when you stay here. One window was broken. The bathtub was siliconed on multiple spaces as it was cracked. Garbage can lid was broken. Lights above bed were no longer straight and look like they were about to fall off. Bed was decently comfortable. Lots of space on the inside !

Older motel that has made efforts to provide all possible amenities within that framework. Clean, comfortable and quiet. They charge for pets, which I do not like, but of course they are not alone in this. Otherwise friendly and accommodating. Would stay again.

We arrived very late so it took a few phone calls with the owner to get the key, but he gamely met us when we requested! Our room was absolutely awesome - full dino decor with glow in the dark stars on the ceilings. I mean, c'mon, who doesn't want that in Drumheller, the dino-capital of Alberta? I appreciated having a second bedroom. Everything was small but serviceable, and surprisingly quiet for a motel. A fun place to spend the night.
