Great value and will visit again

The room was upgraded and had just been remodeled. Very Modern and clean

The outside needs some love and tlc but don’t judge a book by its cover

Cheaper than the other hotels in the area, but it still feels like a bit less than I paid for.

The mini-fridge was pretty nice. The air conditioner worked well. There was hot water in the shower.

There were many bugs in our room. The paint was peeling in several places. The bathroom fixtures were quite rusted.

For $180 per night, this motel was seriously overpriced.

Location was easy to find

No place to hang clothes, no drawers, no luggage rack, ghoulish lighted mirror, reading lights were exposed bulbs, sheets were microfiber - felt hot and clammy, parking space was difficult to get in and out of. We would not stay there again.

Exceptional

Family on Harleys. Loved the fact that our bikes were right outside the door/room and it was well lit throughout the night. Saw multiple police patrols come through the parking lot throughout the night. Very comfy and excellent bang for the buck. Centrally located in town and easy access to sites/restaurants/etc.

Nothing at all. It met my expectations for the price.

We didn’t get to stay.

Nothing bc I was unable to stay due to the property not having my reservation.

I had confirmation number and booked several weeks in advance. However, when my family of 4 and my elderly parents got to the property, the property didn’t have my reservation. They did try to offer me a room that was old and not updated, but it was disgusting and didn’t accommodate 6 people. We stayed here a couple of years ago and had a great experience, however, I won’t be booking again.

Awlful. Certainly not worth $121 a night. Maybe $45 and that’s stretching it

Was signed up for king and twin with kitchen. Got two singles and a coffee pot. No cups. No coffee. Baseboards were coming off. No knob in hot water in tub. No dressers etc. two straight chairs and desk chair. Head board was missing from bed.

Wapiti Stay was expensive for what you get. Wapiti lodge wasn't good at communicating.

It was clean and the beds were nice.

The price, the view, no phone in room.

The stay was five minutes due to the evidence of bed bugs

Disgusting

We were there all of five minutes. The bed had bed bugs. We saw the person on duty go in and swipe the dead ones off of the comforter.

Don't stay there!

Didn't like anything. Beds ok.

Just about everything. It was old, musty, outdated furniture. Some lights didn't work. Grounds were unkempt and there were piles of trash at one end of the building. Also charged $50 for my 2 small dogs, which for where it was and what it was, seemed unreasonable. I have photos of the trashy scene. Do not recommend.

Wait and see if you can find something else till remodel is done

I have stayed here multiple times. I always liked have options to cook my food instead of eating out everyday. Rooms that I get are very large and comfortable.

My reservation was lost. The room I had was covered in stickers and was not very clean compared to other times I had stayed. Got woke up two mornings in a row to move my car for garbage truck. They were in the middle of remodeling and cleanliness suffered from it. There was a guest who looked like she was living there and was very noisy in the middle of the night. Not to mention she was hoarding a bunch of junk in front of her room.

Comfy beds, VERY clean room, which it exactly what we needed.

The beds were comfy, the room was VERY clean.

The check in process could have been better, but I did read the reviews before hand and this seems to be an ongoing problem so we were prepared.

It was OK after the people all got to their rooms and settled in.

No Breakfast.

The Clerk to check us in was very late getting to work. He gave us a discount though so that was nice of him.

Poor

Josh was the only bright star. He explained pricing and got us checked in quickly. He gave us a great recommendation for food we could get delivered to the room. Meanwhile the owners appeared to be just there in the office on their phones. Did not welcome me or even look at me. Saw them again when I got ice. They just ignored me and continued on their phones. ABSOLUTELY NOT IMPRESSED.

Poorly kept. Falling apart . Garbage outside the dumpsters on the ground. Windows and vents filthy. Spatters of something brown on the ceiling in the shower. Right by the highway although pictures are made look like the property sits back.

Very good

- Chairs located outside the doors and in a common area to encourage guests to sit outside - Gas grill in common area for guests to use - Microwave and larger than usual refrigerator in room

- Desperately in need of update - Bathtub was extremely slick and no non-slip mat was provided - Towels enough for two guests only (reservation was for three guests) - Live bugs crawling everywhere—bathroom, floor, nightstand and on us as we lay in bed - Beds are not on a true frame and rested against the wall (no headboard) - Office not opened at the time stated - No secondary lock on the door, only a knob lock. - No “Do Not Disturb” for the door. The cleaning staff or someone walked right into our room at 8:30am while we were still laying in bed watching tv. No knock. - Way overpriced. Not at all worth the nightly rate.

Close to downtown

Front door entry- porch was very dirty! I had to sweep it so we wouldn’t track dirt into our room. No screens on the kitchen or bathroom windows, beds not comfortable. Way overpriced for the room!!

More than I expected!

It was clean and spacious. The bed was very comfortable. We stayed in unit #26 and to our surprise it had a fully stocked kitchen in terms of utensils and appliances!

The shower/tub valve was hard to adjust and the water was a little too hot.

Not a bad stay if it was $30 less

Location is fine, it was one of the first things we hit coming into town. Never met staff; I got a voicemail saying they'd leave the key under the mat at the door to my room. Room was clean, bed was comfortable, Internet quality was slow but decent.

AC is super high, could barely reach to turn it on or adjust it (room was warm when we arrived). Was mostly surprised at the price for how dated of a place it is. $94 for the room, $111 after taxes; I've stayed in better for much less. The shower was terrible; I was alternately scalded & frozen every 7 seconds, and it never evened out.

The bed was very comfortable ! Room was a good size. Older decor but everything worked!!

Little better locks on door would be great. Could use a second night stand with plugs
