Thriftlodge Cochrane South

Staff at motel friendly & helpful, rooms are dated but clean & comfortable, the 241 on the property has great pizza, panzerotti & wings

The price was low and the service was friendly. I had everything I needed for a night’s stay on a long drive from Edmonton to Toronto. Pleasant Stay

Don’t do it! Worst hotel I’ve ever stayed at. Dirty rooms, broken window in bathroom that wouldn’t close. First room wasn’t cleaned from the last guest and they wanted me to wait for the room to be cleaned when the place was empty. Normally I wouldn’t care much about that if it was early in the day but we arrived at 5:30 pm. Just don’t do it and be thankful you listened to my advice.

I stayed here twice, once on the way through and once on the way back. The first night I was satisfied with the room. It was a place to lay our heads that was pet friendly. It did the trick. On our return trip however, completely different story. We had the same room which I was happy about but in the two week span between stays something happened to the door, looked like it had been “fixed” but wouldn’t stay closed so the room was freezing. It still closed with the deadbolt but otherwise wouldn’t stay closed. They offered to have someone come by but since it was just an overnight I declined the offer as the room was taking forever to warm up. I feel like they should’ve noticed this issue when they cleaned the room or even when the door was “fixed”. It’s not a fancy place by any means but it’s pet friendly and cheap. Don’t set your expectations too high. The whole place needs a facelift.

The room was spacious and the bed was so comfortable! It was a great weekend getaway.

Coming to a 2.5 star hotel, I knew not to expect anything high-quality. Upon arriving to my room, there was a hole punched through the front door, and the numbers were hanging off crooked, which should’ve been my first indication. Opening the door to the room, the smell was overwhelming of must and dirt. I am pretty confident that the duvet cover has not been changed since the 1980s, the towels were thin and small… The carpets were filthy, and the noise of the other people staying at the hotel, kept us up for most of the night. It was overall incredibly disgusting to the point where I even went to the local giant tiger to buy my own blanket because I did not trust that the top blanket had ever been washed. I understand that probably the owners have taken over the motel and just left it as is, but I would never ever ever recommend this motel to anyone. Especially for $100 a night. I almost slept in my truck.

I did not stay at this hotel. When I arrived it was obvious that the hotel was not as per the photos on the ******* site, the office area was very dated and when I was told that there had been a power outage and I could not have a room key, I decided not to stay there. I drove for a further hour to Timmins and stayed at the Travelodge. I contacted ******* via your online messenger and explained what had happened. I was told that someone would get back to me but as yet I have heard nothing. I am looking for a refund

Its a motel that takes pets and has a fair price and there is a hreat place for pizza and wraps right there. There are two has stations within a km and the staff are great.

Bedsheets were dirty and the floors were dirty. Only one face cloth and one hand towel for two people. Would not recommend 😠
