Well priced, big rooms. Decent breakfast. Beds were too hard. Decor is dated but I’d rather stay in a clean decently priced hotel than an expensive one that is fancy inside.

Everything was more then excelent! This was the best experience over the last few years here in Canada! Just a little notes we can adjust to make this place even more better: In the dining area it's better to change plastic utensils to more eco friendly material then plastic! Thank you so much for this wonderful stay, wish we could stay more with you!

The staff were very personable and accommodating and friendly. Yes, the hotel was dated, but it was walking distance to the Stampede grounds, it was clean and the price was great for the amenities provided. The pool wasn’t functioning during our stay but we didn’t have time to use it anyways. For being next to a main road, it was very quiet. Would definitely stay here again when in Ponoka.
