Nice room, mini kitchen area but no stove with this unit. Clean room, soft/ med bed w/ mid stiffness pillows, there are no soft pillows to switch between in the room (I'm sure if I made and effort and asked the deal there could be options). Sofa if you need one it is there and a cozy electric fireplace to round out the room. The restaurant has a nice big menu and the food is good, and to think I was doing to eat McDonald's tonight. I can't say much for the cost of the stay, due to it being for work but looking up the price online it doesn't seem bad for what I was given.

Car broke down on my wife during a road trip. Parked here just in case she had to stay. Staff saw her walking to Walmart, trying to find a mechanic after hours, etc... and were very supportive and helpful. Super friendly and concerned about her and the trip. They got her a room last minute and went above/beyond to make her feel welcome and informed her beforehand that the people above her would be leaving in the middle of the night and the rooms up there get cleaned in the night. They were upfront about any noise. She was blown away by the service.

The women at the front desk were very smiley and polite. Probly hittin on me. Im so used to it everywhere i go that i hardly notice at times. The room was impressive. Bed was a little small for me but im 6,11". All beds are too small. Still the most luxury ive ever had in my whole miserable life. The couch, 2 tvs and doors that close the bedroom section off were great. If my wife was around i could have alone time here still. She wasnt tho. Even better. Actual glass wear (plates, bowls, silverware and mugs were appreciated. The carpet... well its a hotel. How clean do you think the carpets gonna be? Anyways rickys is also decent but i wish there was a free breakfast since i spent all my money on vodka and snow that wasnt even very good. I still slept. Clean washroom. I kept the soap, shampoo and the like. Wish i had grabbed the shower curtain for my tree fort.

Really great place to stay. The staff are all friendly and eager to assist their guests. The housekeeping is great, and keeps things in order without disturbing you whether you work night or day shift. If I'm ever working in Edson again, I will always stay here. Location is a bit weird, just off a one way but I think everything in Edson is

If you like the sound of trains sleep in the rooms with even numbers. If you like the sound of trucks and cars, sleep in the rooms with odd numbers.

We were staying here for work and it was the perfect home away from home. The front desk staff and housekeeping staff are all so pleasant and accommodating. If we needed anything the were quick and happy to help. We stayed in one of the suites with a stove top oven, full fridge, washer and dryer, it was a large suite and it was extremely handy. They had everything in suite that a person could need while staying there. I suffered an injury while at work and was confined to a wheelchair for most of my stay. The suites are large enough that I had no issues maneuvering around with the chair and the elevator was great. They offer coffee and tea in the lobby and the coffee is a amazing brew!! If we needed anything printed or sent to our work the front desk was always willing to help. The bagged breakfast was very generous and extremely handy. We were very happy with our 60 day stay and will not hesitate to stay there again in the future. Thanks again for all the Halloween treats, also for being so awesome and accommodating.

We stayed at this hotel for work, and did not expect it to turn into a three month temp placement. We had our young son with us, and the staff was amazing. Melissa was super kind and helpful. Everyone was really nice to our son. They worked with us often when we needed something and really made what could have been a very unpleasant experience much, much easier.

It was exactly as I expected. Not a super stunning brand new place, but not nearly as bad as some reviews. I was in the "apartment style" suites", which look just like a friend's two bedroom apartment. It is complete with balcony, full kitchen, cooking supplies (which even included some stainless, which I prefer to the non stick), and in suite laundry. Walmart is right across the street, although I'll never go there again if I don't have to (will be another review for them soon). Sobeys is a five minute walk through a nice park area, and there are convenience stores and other services close by. I really enjoyed having the convenience of a kitchen with the full oven. Very uncommon to get an oven and in-suite laundry in a hotel. To me, hotel rooms are function over fashion. I don't care how fancy it is, just that it is functional space. Overall it was pretty clean and I'm giving this place a 3 on the "clean sock score". 1 being the lowest. I did a lot of cooking, and when cooking, you gotta know there will be some food splatter and so on, so I took that into consideration. The building was also very quiet. I'd definitely stay again.
