Never again
Liked: Not much - close to UofA and restaurants - did not see any bugs
Disliked: Run downNot cleanMany things brokenStaff not friendly (at times defensive)Breakfast was not good (gloopy oatmeal)Fire alarm one night - had to evacuate for an hour (stairwell reeked of urine). At 1am the next morning was awoken by the Edmonton police Swat Team in full battle gear brandishing automatic weapons as they conducted a room by room search for someone who was reported to have been seen with a weapon. Was not evacuated nor given an all-clear. Neighbourhood is dirty, loud (motor bikes, loud cars, night clubs, people screaming/yelling, sirens), and did not feel safe (day or night)

An outdated hotel with an...
Liked: The location is top notch, you're right on Whyte Ave and able to enjoy all the amenities that provides. It's a quick trip to downtown as well as easy access to the West Edmonton Mall. The location is amazing.
Disliked: The hotel held some romantic memories for us. We visited it in 2013 and had an amazing time. This trip was a sort of redo, and it turned out fine. It's just the hotel feels like it hasn't been updated at all since then. In 2013 that wasn't so bad, now in 2024 things are a little dated. The bed we slept in was simply awful, I had back pain every single day. The faucet for the shower worked, but it was loose. The door of the bathroom jammed.All of these things weren't too bad on their own, together, it didn't make for the best experience.
