    Ideal for me”

    The room was a little dated, but it was large and suited me ideally. It was clean and the staff very friendly and polite. I would stay again without looking elsewhere.

    spacious”

    We really enjoyed our stay. Its quite convenient as it has its own kitchenette and spacious living area. The bath tub in the bathroom is a bonus plus the swimming pool but we did not have the chance to use the pool as we were running out of time. But overall, it was a great stay!

    Very good”

    A very very dated hotel that is well over due for a make over! The 2 bedroom was a great size but very old- sitting on the couch was like sitting on the floor, the shower door was broken so replaced by a bath curtain, the fridge didnt work at all. It has a lot of potential but time to up date and replace furniture ( like 10yrs ago!) The front desk lady was very friendly.

    terrible!!!”

    The bed linen was not clean & the brown blanket over the top had lots of long black hairs stuck on it. The white bath towels also had hairs on it.... luckily we brought our own towels to use. The facilities were not as per the advitised on their web-page. Very expensive Room rates for a town like Dagerville !!!
