Our stay with the Sandman Red Deer hotel was very disappointing. We had booked a 2 queen bedroom (4 guests) but was assigned a king bedroom with a pullout sofa bed. I understand that this happens from time to time and comes with the territory of booking with a 3rd party site; however, that was only the beginning.

Our front desk agent was friendly enough and tried to help where he could, but there wasn't much he can do about the room.

The sofa bed was of a terrible quality that even our 10 year old daughter complains of backpain after just sleeping for one night. The bedding looked like it hasn't been slept in for months and not to mention no additional pillows or duvet covers for the sofa bed.

The air conditioning unit is placed awkwardly in the lower corner of the room, with a desk placed pretty much right in front of it and therefore blocking the airflow. This meant was the room got pretty warm but the AC would shut off because the thermostat thinks the room is cool enough (Since all the cold air was trapped in the corner). The AC also didn't have a constant fan mode, so it would just rumble loudly on and off throughout the night.

The bathroom was \"newly decorated\" with new wallpaper but the bathtub and faucet were clear old and dated. Instead of providing us with body soap, we were provided with a literal bar of soap for showering. I cannot remember when the last time I had to shower with a bar of soap in a hotel.

We would not recommend the hotel to anyone.

The staff were very friendly upon check-in, however the room we had was absolutely terrible, it smelt old and like cat / dog pee, the carpet was dirty, and the furniture wasn’t great. The bathroom door didn’t close, and the shower didn’t have a shower door so all, so all the water leaked onto the floor, the bathroom was small & not super functional because the door didn’t close. Outlets by the bed only worked if the lamp was on. Tv was in weird place / unable to watch & vending machine was not stocked. Likely will not be back.

The staff at check in were very friendly, the bed was comfortable & the guest services / house keeping was fast & prompt for items we needed, check in / check out was seamless. However we felt like the bathroom lacked, didn’t seem to be very clean, the hair dryer had old hair stuck in it, there was hair in the bathroom / bath tub. Over all the bathrooms could use an upgrade. Also the air conditioner was blocked by the desk right in front so the room didn’t get super cold & the curtains didn’t close fully / need to be fixed, over all it was good for a one night stay, but some things could be improved!

Staff was incredibly friendly. Really cool vending machines. Lobby was up to date but the room really quite lacked.
Found a wasp in our room within the first 2 minutes. Room was quite musty and humid. AC took a long time to cool the room down. Around bed time, I walked around to the other side of my bed and stepped in a seeping wet spot on the floor. We didn’t spill anything so not sure why it was soaking wet for so long (before we got there).
Overall, hotel is updated and staff is wonderful, but the rooms could most definitely use a bit more cleaning/more of an upgrade.

Air conditioning was broken and they said they fixed and it wasn’t. Thankfully the second night was cooler outside. The hot tub was out of service and really cloudy water. Our room was clean but the bed was supposed to be a king size but it definitely did not look or feel like it. We stayed there 2 of the last 3 weekends for our kids sports tournaments. I think we gave it an honest chance, however, I don’t think I would stay here again.

Air conditioning was noisy and clicked on an off barely cooling the room. I found the lighting in the room to be dark and the bed and pillows I found to be uncomfortable. Not a bad hotel but certainly not five star worthy. Staff was polite overall with the exception of one female employee who almost barreled people over as she exited the elevator.

Wasn’t a fan of the pillows. Had to turn the AC to 62° to keep the room at room temperature. Other than that, not a bad hotel, but not my first choice. 3/5

Very attentive staff. Nice rooms. Could have been a bit cleaner. It didn’t appear our room had been vacuumed super well.

Hotel halls were swamped with noisy kids and the hotel staff had no idea how to control them. There were housekeeping issues. No hot water in the morning.

I don't recommend this hotel.

The only convenience was Moxies was attached otherwise the front staff was very unprofessional/rude, the rooms were not very nice or updated. For the price I’d stay elsewhere

Our hotel room was absolutely disgusting. There was mold on the window sill and in the bathroom, the floors looked like they had not been vacuumed. I was disgusted to see that the mattress covers are not removable as well, which must mean they don’t get washed.
I stayed with my 6 year old who couldn’t fall asleep because there were zero blackout curtains (they look like they had been ripped off the track).
We went to the pool, which had clumps of hair floating around all over the place and looked like it had not been cleaned in weeks. My daughter mysteriously got an eye infection the next day.
And lastly, I had to throw myself against the door to get it locked…there was something wrong with the way it closed.
It was a first and definitely our last experience with a Sandman hotel.

Nice property, very convenient to where I needed to go. Friendly staff, nice room, but the only reason why I booked that location is because of the hot tub. I’m getting old and travelling hurts. And the hot tub was not working for my stay which was very disappointing.

Needs to be renovated. Pool area is small but staff was great. Beds were fine. Not enough plug ins by bed for charging phones. Missing sheer drapes and had to put up a sheet. Sofa bed is not great. Fine to stay but nothing to rave about. Good location.

Staff was friendly and helpful but the room was half cleaned including food stuck in the carpet and the water in the bathroom would not get warm. The room itself was set up nicely just poorly maintained.

We enjoyed our stay, But for the price you pay, I had expected to get my room vacuumed , bathroom cleaned, and beds made. They came to clean, but pretty much just took out the trash and replenished the towels.

The property was clean and moxies is right there which is handy you don’t have to drive to go eat supper. As for the room it was clean but we were on the bottom floor…which happens sometimes booking through a third party which is too bad I’ve had this happen now a few times…even when we had booked a vehicle we had an issue last year booking through a third party..anyway the room’s door had a gap between door and jam so you could hear everything in the hallway felt like the people were in our room it was so loud…4am people were rolling around so needless to say our sleep was not good.
