Room was clean enough but beds were lumpy and the shower went scalding hot to ice cold by itself. Also the electrical outlet in bathroom was questionable. Outside property junky and in disrepair

As an emergency place to it is ok. If you’re looking for anything else, best to keep driving. Old and getting run down by Canadian weather and poor management.

It was less than advertised. It was musty and old. The previous occupants garbage was still in the can. their coffee pouch was still in the machine and their dirty coffee cup was still on the counter. I makes you wonder what was actually cleaned in between stays. I was certainly less than impressed. Dryden (in general) is a VERY expensive place to stay with limited options. Needless to say I won't be back or staying in Dryden again (if I can avoid it). Not impressed or pleased.

Thev room was clean. The only thing i would suggest is..get rid of the upholstered chair..not in great shape..use the leather like chair in its place and put a wooden chair at the desk. Then this improves its appearance.

Great tv and coffee maker Everything else was old and outdated. Even though check in was till 11:30 we had to wait to find someone to give us a key even with a reservation. The carpet and whole bathroom don’t appear to have ever been updated.
The a/c was too noisy to use and proximity to the tracks and pulp mill made opening the windows not an option. The fridge freezer was in bad need of defrosting. Overall quiet.

The bed was really comfortable.
We got a room at the back,it was really quiet.
The room was clean.
Check in went very smoothly as we had booked and paid the room a few days ahead. Very helpful and friendly service.
The price was very reasonble and you get what you pay for but just traveling through and wanting a clean room and a good night sleep this was the place to go to.

Dated
Taps in bathroom worked not very well.
The safety chain was broken.
There was a fridge and microwave but no utensils at all. when I went to the office the lady (another one then when we checked in) was upset with another custumer and not a single spoon was availabe. Would have been nice to have even a few plastic utensils.

We would mostlikely stay there again as it looked they were updating the rooms.

Tremendously bad. Only stayed there because it was the only place not booked in town. If we weren't exhausted after the drive we would have kept going after seeing the room. At check in they said they didn't have a room for me until I told them to try my first name. I found bugs on the ceiling, the paint is peeling in the bathroom, there is no deadbolt on the door, the security lock chain is missing the eyelet so it doesn't work. The train comes through and you feel it the whole night even the the walls are cinder block. There is no sound proofing so we heard the people above us banging around all night. 1 extra star for eco factor because we saved water because we were afraid to use the shower! The mattress felt like it had been stored folded in half so there was a canyon down the middle with lumpy springs on both sides.

Needs major overhaul

We arrived mid evening after a long day of driving and were looking forward to the pillowtop mattress that was advertised on the site and all the signs along the highway. The bed couldn’t have been any harder. It was like lying on a board. The entry door was very hard to close. The bathroom door would not latch. There was hair sticking out of the toilet paper holder. I’m the morning when we went to shower there was a face cloth hanging over the shower bar from a previous person. The tub had stains and the tile above the toilet was twisted and out of shape.

Maintenance is not their strong suit . Had a bad fall in the parking lot . It was icy and there was not a bit of salt or sand until I called up to the main office to complain . Watched the guy leave and return with a bag of salt . He placed it under the stairs . Apparently it spreads itself . No one from Management came to check on my condition . Hobbled around for the last 2 weeks bruised .
The condition of the bathtub taps was horrible . It sprayed sideways . Would not engage fully from tub filler to shower . There was huge rust stains on the tub . Some Comet cleanser and elbow grease would addressed that issue.
The baseboard heater in the bathroom had so much paint on it ( bordering on fire risk) And rust stains were still coming thru . Paint was chipped by on the door . Carpet in main room was dated and dingy . 😕
