The tub was kind of dirty around the drain. But everyone there is great. Great for a quick stay and very well priced.

If you wait for about 3 minutes, I checked that the hot water came out normally. Sorry if it was inconvenient.

I've been impressed with the cheaper hotels in Drayton Valley. But I would have to say this one has been the best so far. Very clean, and nice features in the room. I very much like having my own balcony and stove top.

We stayed here twice on the front and back of a motorcycle trip through the mountains. Both times the owners were wonderful to deal with. This is a true bargain - not only is it the cleanest hotel we’ve stayed at in years but the owners are wonderful to deal with. The only downside we found was having to go elsewhere to eat as there wasn’t a restaurant in the hotel. Highly recommend!

All we wanted was a clean room, clean, comfortable bed and a hot shower in the morning. The room had a smell but it was reasonably clean. The bed was not comfortable but clean. There was only lukewarm water available so we couldn’t shower. That is why I am giving this place a poor rating.

Thank you for using HomeAwayInn and sorry for not giving you a good experience first. However, when I checked the bathroom of the room the customer used, I turned on the hot water and waited for a while, and I was able to confirm that the hot water came out without any problems. If hot water does not come out right away, it may be because the water in the hot water pipe has cooled and is cold. In this case, if you turn on the hot water and wait for a while, hot water comes out after all the cold water is drained.Thank you.

If you are looking for a basic place to stay that is clean - this is it. Not too many frills but a comfortable bed to sleep on and clean bathroom to get ready in. A little disappointed in the toilet that didn't flush properly but all in all it was good.

It was advertised as a pet-friendly hotel and we had a reservation. We were turned away when we got there. He said there was only one pet-friendly room and it was taken. We drove more than an hour more to find another place after 10 PM

Hi. Firstly, we would like to sincerely apologize for your dissatisfaction with the service at our motel. However, due to our only pet room being occupied by another guest, we hope you understand not being able to check in or allowing you pet to stay alone in the car overnight. The next time should you wish to stay with us with your pet, we would be grateful if you could give us an advanced notice for booking and checking the room availability.

An OK stay in Drayton Valley. The new owners or managers are working hard to make this place accommodating. The property has been hard used previously. Amenities such as restaurant and casino advertised on the website no longer exist. The continental breakfast offered was more than adequate and much appreciated.

It is a little out of the way from the highway but Drayton Valley is not so large that one cannot get to it quickly. It was quiet, clean, safe and had a nice buffet breakfast in the morning. The staff were very pleasant and helpful. It he room was large, very clean and comfortable - as was the bed. Best of all, the price was the best I have managed for quite some time. Warmed my Scottish heart! Highly recommended!
