I had serious reservations about my stay at this hotel. The clientele made me uneasy - there were many suspicious-looking individuals loitering in the hallways at all hours, creating an uncomfortable atmosphere. The worst part came at checkout when staff actually prevented me from leaving until they had physically inspected my room. In decades of traveling, I've never encountered such distrustful treatment of a guest. This invasive policy, combined with the questionable environment, made for a very unpleasant experience. While the room itself was clean and the location convenient, these factors can't compensate for the overall discomfort.

In two words, filthy and frightening. The hallways stank heavily of tobacco smoke, and the room as well. The bed linens were stained and smelled like a dirty ashtray. The tub was stained, and with a cigarette burn on the side. The walls were spattered with filth and unwashed. The area seems to shelter some of Saskatoon's homeless population, and the hotel residents mostly seem to be sheltered there, with frequent interactions with the unhoused population. We might have opened a window to air out the room, but as my wife noted, there was a bag of garbage (and a used car tire) just in front of that window - not likely to improve the odours in the room. On the upside - the staff were polite. But the room was stinky, dirty, and the setting scary.

Rough place to stay

Arrived at hotel, people passed out outside who looked to be under the influence of something. Very dirty outside. Quickly processed at the desk. Hotel smelled of cigarettes. Ground level floor had interior and exterior door. adjacent room was constantly banging on their door for people to get in. People were up all night screaming across the hallway and in room till 2 am. First night I stepped out for dinner and came back to a parking lot full of cops cruisers. Spent the day away from the hotel on day2 but when I got back in there was a lady fumblings a bag of chips infront of the door with security yelling at her to leave. Had to get my card reactivated and had to wait as they were calling the cops. Next mornging I needed to wait for the front desk guy to inspect my room in order to get my deposit back ($200). Seems like they are used to a less responsible clientelle.
