Our stay was good, the room was really clean. I was worried it would be cold in our room since it is motel style and it was -30 while we were there but I was wrong our room was toasty warm. Check in was smooth and friendly. We will stay again if in the area

Charged without authorization
I was charged on my credit card the day we were suppose to check in but I had signed up for pay at site. So they charged me before it was even check in time and before we even got there. Also it would’ve been nice to have the option to be able to pay with debt card but they only accept credit cards.

8/10 Very good

Nice and clean room. Great staff. Facilities need to be updated, as I had a drainage problem with the toilet and bath. Very slow to drain which actually caused the toilet to overflow. Some channels on TV didn't have good service which was frustrating considering location. A bit noisy with people in room next to me being able to be heard, but not too bad. I let reception know about these things. Overall, not a bad stay.
