This is an older Motel. The lobby was clean and our room was warm and clean. The bed was comfortable and the room was quiet. There was a bathtub with lots of hot water. The room also had a coffee machine and coffee. There was also a microwave and fridge that we did not use. TV and Wifi worked well. Breakfast was more then expected. Great restaurant across the highway. We would stay here again.

Mike is always so friendly and helpful. When we go to Claresholm to visit family, we always stay here. Great breakfast as well. Rooms are clean and the beds are super comfy. They have a few with two rooms. Some have 3 beds, others with two and singles as well. I would highly recommend staying here!

6/10 Good

The room was all right , clean. The over all impression I got after finding out the restaurant Connected was closed and the laundromat closed as well, was this place is struggling. Would personally rate it a 4/10. Vending machines are empty and no ice buckets . We booked thing we had a room with a table and chairs outside but we were inside at the end of an old dark hallway. Needs some definite loving and maybe a few updates.

The room was big enough for the three of us and our dog. The breakfast had an assortment of cereal, muffins, fruit and breads. The coffee was hot and plentiful with plenty of creamer options. There was also yogurt avaiable.
