An outstanding lodging facility. Exceptionally clean and very well maintained. Kitchenette was fantastic - full size fridge and range. Table/chairs to eat at. Large flat screen TV and great selection of channels. WIFI was wonderful for room 103. Bathroom was so clean and updated. Nice towels and linens. Several restaurants nearby and grocery store next door. We ordered the 2-piece cod fish snack box from Hangover Chicken and Fish. It was delicious and huge servings. They only do takeout and are right across from the lodging. Go and stay at the lodging and order the fish! Definitely recommend both.

Great place to bunk up on our trip. Owner was wonderful, shared knowledge of area and was very cordial. Rooms were great. We had one with a kitchen and so prepared dinner & breakfast!

We ended up staying here last minute after our truck broke down on the highway. The owners are the kindest couple— welcoming, funny and genuinely friendly. The room was clean and comfortable, and we got a great night’s sleep after a long, tiring day. The highlight of our stay at this place was definitely meeting the owners. Thank you so much!

Amazing service, very friendly owner. Loved the hospitality and patience everyone had for a family with kids. There is not a lot of space for parking trailers but the owner was very understanding and helped us by allowing us to park in a way that would occupy 2 spots. Im only giving the rooms a low rate because we found a cigarette under our bed when we were looking for something our kid said they dropped under the bed. Aside from that this place does have AC and very comfortable beds.

Nice clean rooms! Slept great on the bed and the room was warm. Motel host was very nice and even let us park our massive trailer in the tiny parking area. Would stay again just for the great water pressure!

Me and my wife got in an accident on a work trip 15 hours from home and Howard helped us amazing with service and rooms until we were able to get a ride back safely to Calgary. We loved talking and sharing stories we’re so grateful to have had this experience. Will definitely be travelling back here just to stay here again. Thank you so much for everything you did for us.

A welcoming host, easy check in and clean, warm, well stocked room- what else a traveler wants? Slept well - coffee machine helped and a hot bath refreshed aching body from a long travel. Easy stairs climb for disabilities - a comfortable bed for injured spines... I strongly recommend this place.

You should stay here if you're doing work in the area because: 1. It's clean. 2. There's a nice large desk for doing work. 3. The couple running it are the nicest people in the hotel business (based on the 200 hotels and motels I've stayed in).
