We had a great experience at the Yellowhead Motel while passing through Valemount for one night! It was super clean and very comfortable. No frills but this was actually one of the cleanest accommodations we have ever stayed at.

We liked the simplicity of the furniture and design! Such a nice clean room! Nothing fancy! Just a plain clean room! Very small tub! Shower worked good though! Would be nice if the fridge had a freezer. Was very warm until we figured out the ac/kinda noisy

This property has really become run down since we stayed there last. The whole room was run down, I found hairs in my bed sheets, and (not at the fault of the hotel) we had very noisy neighbours smoking pot directly outside our window at 5am. Also, NO security. The door was just an automatic lock when it was shut, and there was no other way to secure the door. (deadbolt, ect). Felt very insecure.

The property was old and shabby. The room smelled bad and of old cigarette smoke. There were hairs on the pillows and sheets. Gaps under the door let in bugs, like spiders and flies.

This motel is very old and has not been renovated at all as far as I could tell. The climate control in the room didn’t allow me to control the temperature. Carpets looked like they hadn’t been replaced in decades, if ever. Bath towels were not adult size. And the hotel was extremely expensive for what they provided. I can’t believe they charge what they do for a very worn out motel. We stayed in several other hotels on that same trip and paid 40% less for far better hotel rooms that also included breakfast. Everything in Valemount is extremely overpriced. You’re better off staying in another town.

Gentleman at front desk was very friendly & accommodating with some needs of ours, room was very clean. Had a new bed & furniture, hair dryer, ironing board, fridge, coffeemaker.. but room was basic. Could use upgrading in room & outside appearance, also air conditioner needs to be replaced. Reasonable price compared to other hotels in the area. Walkable to dining options. If you want a clean basic hotel room for a one night stay this is a good option.

No one was at the desk when we arrived. Had to call the Motel. It’s an old property, but location and cleanliness was good. The Pub next door was great for a bite to eat when we arrived in town.

This is literally the worst hotel I've ever had the displeasure to stay in. It smells of mould and urine, not unlike an old persons care home. Dreadful decor and furnishings. Curtain pole fell down every time I tried to close the curtains Black hair over the bathroom floor on arrival ( we're blond ) Stains on the two chairs. Paper thin walls that you could hear next door coughing. Zero amenities, even the vending machine was out of order. Tiny thin bath towels. The only toiletries was a single round of soap that was unwrapped on arrival. One portion of coffee for a family room. 4 pillows for 4 people. And it's not like it was super cheap. I really wish I'd asked for a refund and stayed somewhere else. The only two positive things I can say is that the bed was comfortable and the shower was powerful and plenty of hot water. Do not book this hotel. I can only assume that the good reviews are false.
