Don't stay here

Plenty of free parking and moderately clean facilities, but the experience was marred by unprofessional service. The staff was argumentative and insisted I pay twice to receive a refund. We booked a queen room but were given a double instead, and there was very little hot water during our stay. Disappointing overall.

I had a very bad experience with this hotel, 1. Expedia had already charged me but I had to pay again at the front desk. Where they told me that Expedia would refund my money in 5 days. 2. The AC was so noisy that I couldn't sleep. I went to the front desk to change rooms and the receptionist only told me that's how they all are because they are old equipment. So I had to sleep in my car. 3. The shower was dirty and had hair. 4. The TV was almost the size of a tablet and had no internet connection. 5. In the morning I went to breakfast and the front desk just said they no longer included breakfast and I didn't know why Expedia included breakfast. Totally disappointed with this hotel. 6. I reserved the room for two nights but had to check out after the first night and they didn't refund me any money. This was my first experience with Expedia at this hotel. Then I saw the reviews of this hotel on other pages and was surprised. I can only wait for them to refund my money for the room and the security deposit.

You Get What You Pay For!

Location: The neighborhood feels unsafe at night. Guests are warned not to leave valuables in cars, and the motel itself has locked check-in and warning signs. Safer options may suit cautious travelers better, though the area has daytime attractions. Room #1: Bed was fine, but the room was hot, the AC extremely noisy, and the bathroom fan loud. Security felt poor: no chain lock, dark shared entry, unclear peephole. The TV was awkwardly angled, noise carried easily from next door, curtains didn’t block light, and privacy was minimal. The worst issue though was seeing a mouse and finding droppings under the fridge. Staff agreed we couldn’t stay in that room but delayed assigning another, I had to make multiple calls in to find out if I have a new room or not, and on the last phone call they even suggested I pay $300 for a new room for one night and wouldn’t refund my booked night for the original room. After pressing, they finally honored the original rate. Room #2: Larger and more comfortable, with better layout and coverings. The shower was great, though the AC remained noisy, the room hot on arrival, and safety features still lacking. Overall: Some improvements in the second room, but between security concerns, noise, pests, and poor customer service, this stay was far from smooth.

The pictures didn't accurately convey the room and it's size. It's very small and as far as having a kitchenette - there were a couple of burners and very limited cookware, silverware, dishes. We stayed for six nights. We got our room cleaned twice. We had to ask for a roll of toilet paper three times before receiving one. We had to beg to get some coffee for the morning. They even asked what our room number was and my husband said "you're not going to charge us are you?!" and they didn't. The bed sagged in the middle and we had to make sure not to sit on the end otherwise it would flip over (the frame was not big enough). There is a cage around the check-in area so I'm not sure how safe the area is. And it's right off a very busy street (Macleod Trail). While Chinook Mall is about 2 minutes away and getting to connecting roads is easy, it's very noisy.

Overall this place is quite run down, and it didn't feel very safe. I should have read the reviews but that's on me. The WiFi didn't work, wouldn't coonect on either device. I called the front desk, she said she'd call back. I called half an hour later, no answer. When I went to check out there was very strong incense burning in the lobby. I found it very unnecessary especially with no windows being open. I wouldn't stay again.

Subject: Unclear Deposit Policy & Rude Front Desk Experience I had a very disappointing experience at Canada Best Value Inn Chinook Station. I was not allowed to check in because I didn’t have a credit card to pay the $100 damage deposit, even though I offered to pay in cash or use my debit card. I booked the room through Expedia using my debit card, and the booking was confirmed successfully. There was no clear mention in the terms and conditions that only credit cards are accepted for deposits. I traveled all the way from Banff, only to be turned away upon arrival. What made the experience even worse was the rude and arrogant attitude of the front desk lady. She was dismissive and unprofessional when I tried to explain that the credit card deposit policy wasn’t made clear during booking. I hope the hotel management clarifies this policy in their listing to avoid misleading future guests.

Property was clean and comfortable. Close to a shopping mall and train station. Though the exterior is a bit on the outdated side the room was pleasantly welcoming. We would definitely return and recommend.

Worst place to stay! We checked in early and were charged for that option around 35 dollars, which we agreed to pay as we were tired and needed to rest. The rooms are not even close to what they show in the pictures. They are dark, considerably small, smelly and the toilets don't even flush properly due to a low water policy or something ridiculous like that. We stayed as we were tired and had plans to go out almost everyday from our stay. It would have been inconvenient to move to a different hotel at that point. Breakfast was advertised, however not even coffee cups were provided in our room. Cigarette smell and noise were a constant thing during the nights upon arrival from our activities, even though it says somewhere these are not supposed to be smoking rooms. Additionally, we were not careful enough to notice, check and take pictures of everything around the beds and room in general, and oh surprise we found out we were charged close to 50 dollars (taken from the 100 dollars security deposit) because a bed sheet was stained with who knows what, as it was already like that when we checked in. They didn't send housekeeping on our first day of stay...we came back to the room finding nobody had come to clean, on the second day, somebody was told to come back later but never did. In other words, just be careful of you're planning to book a stay in there. Check everything and take pictures of everything to avoid being scammed.
