People staying here are not on holidays. It's a rooming house more than a hotel. I stayed here after moving to town while I looked for some place to rent. Bath tubs and no showers. It was cleaned once a day so if someone used the tub or made a mess it stayed that way until morning. Whyte ave is... More

The hotel is extremely affordable and the location was perfect. I especiall enjoyed the pub that was attached and the cheap beer! Being placed on Whyte Ave made it very convenient for going out and getting dinner. I spent almost no time in the room, but I can imagine they are quite spacious and comfortable. The staff are really friendly... More

Best kept secret for budget travel. I was treated like family and given a room near the bathroom. Because it is inexpensive, people like me stay for weeks. Cigarette smokey and I didn't like the cleaning product smell either. Music from barroom nice, pigeons not nice. Feels like going back in time and room looked like a Van Gogh painting.... More

This really happened. First of all I checked into the hotel to the snarliest front desk clerk ever(female). After a few snarls from her I went out of my way to be really nice to her but to no avail. When I went to bed later that night I turned the bedspread back to go to bed only to see... More

I went to Edmonton with some friends for a quick trip and listened to one girl's ideas in regards to almost the entire trip because she had been to Edmonton more times than me. We were on a tight budget and she'd said that she found a hotel on Whyte ave that was 'old and funky' and really cheap, so... More

To start with, I must say that I've never actually stayed the night in a room, but you have to expect when heading to the Strat that it is going to be DIRTY! This is a classic piece of Edmonton history that people's parents and grandparent's can still talk about. The bar there is dirty and serves the best cheap... More

Well, no one has written a review for this hotel, so thougth I would share my breif experience with it a few years ago. A friend had advised this was a good budget place to stay in Edmonton if you wanted a budget hotel on Whyte Avenue. I knew it wouldn't be a great hotel, but they advised it wasn't... More
