R & R Wainwright Inn

My room was excellent. There were 2 TVs, there is a bar style eating area. A wide sofa and a love seat and a table with 2 chairs. The kitchen area had a decent size fridge, stove and microwave and plates and cutlery supplied!

When I arrived at the hotel I noticed that the parking lot was almost completely empty. That made me immediately feel like this wasn’t a good place to stay. I went in to the lobby to check in and the desk clerk wanted me to pay for the night in advance, which was a little out of the ordinary and made me nervous of the kind of clientele the hotel catered to. I mentioned that I hadn’t even seen the room yet, but it didn’t matter, the desk clerk said it just made things easier in the morning. I tried to pay with my debit card but the machine wouldn’t accept my PIN number so I felt panicked and embarrassed and I was a long way from home and just wanted a place to rest. I tried over and over but it wouldn’t accept my payment. Finally I left and was able to book another room at another hotel through the website. When I recently checked my credit card statement, I saw that the hotel did charge me 136 dollars for the night that I didn’t even stay. I feel this is pretty low. I don’t travel to Wainwright often, but needless to say, I won’t ever be booking this hotel again. But hey, they got my money for the night so what do they care?

I chose this Inn because it was the close to both the Rodeo grounds and the train station - and also because it was a Rodeo sponsor. I arrived by train to visit the Rodeo, and I was able to easily walk everywhere in Wainwright during my visit.

Doesn’t have breakfast but everything else was decent

Decent hotel conditions for the price. Fridge and microwave were nice to have. Comfy beds and pillows. Very clean.

Comfortable room but lots of noise from others after midnight. Not sure if in the hallway or adjacent rooms.

Friendly and informative staff,clean and pet friendly environment.Looking forward to book my next stay again!

Very good value for money. The jacuzzi function in the tub did not work. There is a microwave and a Keurig coffeemaker but no hot cups or silverware. I would have appreciated actual mugs that I could use to heat up water, for a 4-night stay, it was definitely an inconvenience to have to go to the coffee shop and order a coffee so I could get my hands on a paper cup that I could then reuse. Could use an upgrade to lighting, the room looks dim and dark.

Easy access to the Trans Canada Hwy. The staff were friendly
