We booked this room as it stated on Expedia that it was a pet friendly motel. Upon arriving I was told in no uncertain terms that dogs were not allowed on the beds and had to remain on the floor. I told the woman checking us in that it would be impossible for us to keep our dogs off the beds as they are used to sleeping on the foot of the beds. As a result I ended up paying for the night as the cancellation policy was 24 hours notice and we went to another hotel instead. It should not be listed as pet friendly or state that dogs are only allowed under specified conditions.

The property location is great for shopping and dining. Many things are within walking distance. Our room was very clean, beds and pillows were very comfortable. The only downside was the road noise which is no fault of the property.

The staff were very friendly. The room decor is s dated but everything was clean. It was a great price. I was in Olds for a curling event and didn’t spend much time in my room but to sleep. I booked through Expedia and had no issues.

Dont do it unless ypu absolutely have to.
Very disappointing. Even though the price was pretty cheap, you get what you pay for. The beds were comfy but I did not want to look too close at the cleanliness. Brown towels are always a worry because you know they are not bleaching them.

Clean property, well lit exteriors. The property is obviously older, but rooms are decently renovated, clean, and functional. If your looking for a Hilton 5 Star, go book one. This Motel offers decent rates for basic room and amenities, the linen is clean, and all you need to sleep comfortably.
