The bed sat on a platform and I am only 5' tall. Thankfully I always travel with a step stool otherwise I wouldn't have been able to get on the bed. The mattress and pillows were very comfortable. The blackout blinds were a huge plus! Also, the flooring wasn't carpet, can't stand carpet anymore. I would stay here again!

It would be good to know the pet fee upfront and not right at check in. The place was very convenient for walking to dinner and shopping. We enjoyed our stay.

My biggest complaint is that I got an auto-generated text message that WOKE ME FROM A SOUND SLEEP AT 5:30 a.m. If this is what it means to have a no-staff property, then I'll find other accommodations. Annoying and confusing complaints were: No towel bars in the shower area or near the sink. No closet, no rod, no way to hang up anything. No surface to place luggage or lay out clothes that didn't block the tv receiver. Even the ironing board was broken and would not stand up. Water pressure was good, lovely new towels and comfy bed, but none of that mattered to me when I got such a rude awakening in the morning.

Nice little stay!
Nice little stay for the price. Right in town, easy access to everything. Outside of it looked a little run down but inside was super nice and clean, updated. Self check in, but our room wasn’t ready, staff apologized, understaffed, quick response via text with management. Overall would recommend!

This is my third stay in the last 4 years. The updates were the first thing I noticed, my room was very clean and very well stocked with the essentials. The Wapiti is now a fully self serve place and everything went so smooth with getting room number and access. Overall 5 stars, great job!!!

Came to this hotel for the night and the cleanliness of the hotel was not up to par and expensive for what we paid and got bare minimum for cleanliness. For being a self service hotel and not cleaning the rooms properly is appalling. First our room floor was dirty you could not walk barefoot without getting dirt on your socks. Secondly in the bathroom we had found stained underwear and a tie dye shirt that were not ours. I had to use a towel to move them out of the bathroom. So I can tell the room was not throughly clean. (Picture below) Overall not a bad hotel was quiet and had no other issues check in was smooth snd easy.

Fine for one night stay.
Great for a one night stop. No extras (like a blow dryer) but all the essentials for sleep and shower. Looks to still be under renovations but overall good for the price considering other options in the area.
