We got to the Saskatoon airport around midnight. Even though we called earlier that day, the hotel didn’t offer any transportation, even though their welcome message said they would. It was late, so we were willing to overlook that. But when we got there, they charged me again even though I had already paid through the booking site.
The place was dirty from the front desk all the way to the room. There was some alarm going off outside every couple of minutes, and when I asked about it, the guy at the desk just brushed it off. I had read reviews saying it was an older property, but clean, so we had no idea what we were getting ourselves into. The room was supposedly “clean,” but the carpet was totally worn down, it smelled like old cigarette smoke, there was one thin towel, two tiny pillows on the bed, and the curtains didn’t even cover the window.
We ended up leaving without staying here. DO NOT believe any pictures or positive reviews. No exaggeration: We would have been more comfortable sleeping on a park bench. This hotel might work for certain uses, but is unacceptable for most people.
