This was literally a very last reservation for us. We made the decision to stay in Whitehorse and 20 minutes later we walked in. It was a perfect room for our family of 3 that has been on the road for 35 days with over 6,000 miles. Good laundry, quiet room, the staff was great and all the beds were comfortable!

Truly excellent and restful. Made my reservation via expedia, and because they didn't have any other pet room available, they put me in a two bedroom apartment at less cost. Additionally, staff were more than helpful, very nice stay here, thanks!

I was in three different rooms during my time there (two bookings). The quality of bathrooms varied considerably with one being excellent in one being average and the third being below average. The third room I had had a large air conditioner taking up the bulk of the floor space. I paid the same for all three rooms!

The room was comfortable and we were able to settle in quickly. It was clean throughout the room and the main lobby. Checking in took us almost an hour because they were trying to find us a room (context: we booked 2 Queens & were originally offered 2 twins at check in which isn’t feasible for a family of 4). When we arrived we didn’t realize they only have 1 elevator which is small and could only accommodate a small group of guests at a time. So waiting for the elevator could take 5-30 minutes depending on how many people were in line in the lobby, so we ended up opting for the stairs instead. Overall the room was comfy and updated which was nice to have during such a long road trip. The staff was nice and trying to be as helpful as they could be. Parking is down the street which we didn’t know until we got there. Breakfast & dinner at the saloon wasn’t bad just a little pricey.

No onsite parking, parking is paid by meter in front of hotel, only one luggage cart which was way small to begin with, I didn’t find a ice machine or a pop machine, food wasn’t all that great in the restaurant and the service was even worse

Does NOT have on site parking. It’s STREET parking and you have to feed the meters. Homeless people around property. Parking is not so safe either, hotel makes you to sign a waiver that they are NOT responsible for loss of items. So they know the problem. Hotel itself is clean, breakfast is not included.

I arrived 10 mins before check-in time, told my room wasn’t ready. Came back 40 mins later, room still wasn’t ready. Came back again and guess…room not ready! 😡 I don’t know how they stay in business! I talked with 2 other people having the same problem & another who found someone already in the room they were given. The guy at the desk was blaming “housekeeping” for all of it. Wrong. Management. For the price it was overrated to me.
