Prospectors Inn

The entrance to the parking lot off the road is terrible. We were in a dodge truck and it bottomed out as we entered and left the parking lot.

Room was clean and well prepared for our arrival. The 2-bedroom suite with full kitchen was perfect for our needs compared to a normal motel room. Outdoor lighting is needed around the building as we couldn't see the sign from the road after dark. Otherwise we will certainly be returning next fall for our annual trip!

Good price point for Kirkland Lake area. The motel/inn is a work in progress but I trust it will only get better. We had a large room with kitchenette. The Inn and surrounding area is very quiet, great for sleeping.

Good kitchen, good parking, nice size rooms, clean bathroom.

Unique place; suite was large and spotlessly clean, although somewhat bare. Staff went over and above to send my son's forgotten stuffed animal to our new home (out of province) for which I am grateful. Only gripe is that the parking lot is not well lit. Enjoyed our stay

It was good to have basically a small apartment. Snow in the parking lot was iffy as even when plowed it was not paved making traction dubious with ice. Also no lights for nighttime. Even with these issues I still enjoyed the stay

The place is currently under renovation but the price was worth it for a one-night stay. The beds, linens, and towels were clean. It was a very spacious place.

Your standard questions really don't apply, here, for the Prospector Inn was not a typical roadside inn. From the outside, the place appeared run-down, as if closed for business: peeling paint, broken pavement, weeds, gravel parking area, poor signage. The entrance, as such, led only to a series of corridors, clean and painted brightly white, several signs pointing, past a cold drink machine, to the closed "Office" door. I rang the bell and was pleasantly greeted by the owner (?), who checked me in and showed me to my room, which was clean, but spare, with up-to-date kitchen appliances. Stains on the sofa. No air conditioning (on a very hot, sultry August day), but a fan that helped bring cooler evening air inside. Modern, clean (but small) bathroom. Fast wifi, once I figured out how to connect. (Several "Prospector" sites listed and I seemed to have to search at random to hit the right one!) Perhaps better suited for someone needing a longer-term stay with kitchen than for a room for only a night or two. No public amenities other than that soda machine along one corridor. No "public" spaces inside, just the rooms along those bright, white corridors!

The place was clean, maintained well and safe. A few minutes by walk to the town and shopping. Safe Parking. Will definitely stay there on my next visit

Ice in the parking

Very clean and quiet. Not a lot of natural light but we were only there in the evening so not a concern for us.

Check in was a bit odd. No one available at first. Staff member came right into our room and closed the door to go over the necessary information. If I had been alone that would have made me uncomfortable. Room was Spacious with 2 bedrooms, bathroom and kitchen and living area. Rooms were clean but there was an overpowering smell at first. Not sure if it was cleaning solution. Couch was not comfortable and had an odour to it. Overall it was good just a couple of things that were not so good. Good value for the cost.

The room smelt like piss, the staff was super rude. Wouldn’t clean our room during the stay or do anything about the awful smell that our entire family was subjected to smell for 4 days. I will never stay here ever again or recommend for anyone to stay here. If the staff wasn’t so rude to my husband about it, it wouldn’t have been so bad.

Good experience clean room friendly staff

The room was not well prepared compared to most sites for the cost. No air conditioning, no coffee, ants in the bathroom, no dish washing stuff except soap, no towels in the bathroom or kitchen, reception was some employees room. Places needs to up their game.

Large rooms, clean, recently renovated. A quiet spot. Kitchen is well equipped, large fridge, etc.

Great spot in KL. Recently renovated (Aug 2025) and immaculately clean. Great large spaces with large kitchens and living rooms. Certainly the best place to go in KL. Quiet and convenient. Nearly half the price of the competition. Definitely will stay there again.

We booked a large room and got a small room. Paid $50 more for the large room. Room was full of stains on couch and floor. Bathroom door didn’t look like it had ever been clean. Guy at hotel desk said manager would call me in a couple of days to deal with the over charge. Never heard from them.

The Prospectors Inn had everything I needed - two bedrooms with comfortable beds, a full kitchen with a stove, microwave oven and dishes and cutlery, a nice living room area and a complete bathroom.

Very clean and quiet. Not a lot of natural light but we were only there in the evening so not a concern for us.

Best place to stay less than $100.00 Canadian-Best reception-best Wifi-they make it go by visiting room-one of the top one-fully two bedroom suit with range fridge micowave-top one of 6 places I stayed so far-very friendly contacts

Liked the room in the unit but TV needs more channels:)) very spacious and clean! Loved my time here!

The 2 bedroom is spacious for the 2 of us. It’s ok but there’s no A/c hard to sleep in hot days. The main couch has a funny odour not sure what it was

Good basic room, but walls are quite thin. The couple in the room next to us argued until past 2AM, making it very hard to sleep. Checkin was great. Location is great. Price was great.

The clerk needs to take a course in hotel management. Very unfriendly , mumbled when speaking and offered minimal assistance. Ad states there is ac...there is none! One small fan per bedroom. It was over 35 degrees and experiencing an air quality in effect.

Pretty much a mini apartment. 2 comfortable beds, appreciated portable fans in both bedrooms. Living area had recliner and couch with 2 reclining ends. Kitchen pretty much had all you could need: kettle, toaster, microwave, fridge, stove. Dishes, dish soap, tea towels, dish cloth. The only thing we assumed they would have but didn’t was a hair dryer.

The apt was huge, comfortable and well stocked for your cooking needs. I found the staff extremely friendly and helpful. I would highly recommend this place, I wished I requested bottom floor as o don’t do stairs easily. That was my mistake.

Large rooms (2 bedrooms, full size fridge, oven, microwave)

The owner was very rude and basically didn't want to fix issue until confronted about it and was completely unprofessional and not customer friendly that is 100 percent the truth

Great spacious rooms. Clean and accommodating when running a late check in.

Had a really great stay here! The Manager met us at our suite when we arrived and gave us a tour. The open living space, two bedrooms, and large bathroom were really nice and gave us lots of room to relax and be comfortable. Our suite had a kitchen and dining area that had everything we could need; kettle, coffee maker, toaster... all the essentials. And all of it was at a great rate!

Me and my dad showed up and had to pay extra to use the second bed in a suite that already contained two double bedrooms - got told some guff about how the room can be advertised as a room for two coz one double bed qualifies as a two person bed but if you want two separate beds thats extra. come on lets be clear fellas that’s totally misleading, or at best easy to mistake advertising. a suite meant for two at $99 a night on Expedia became $150 in person. Paid it no argument coz we needed two beds right then and there so what choice we got? And hey, i might not have minded paying 120-150 in advance for what we got but yeah I feel I absolutely got took, so eff that.

Only stopped for one night. Very accommodating with late check in, as no one on site. They are in the process of updating the hotel. Good price for a two bedroom apartment with kitchen. Unfortunately both beds squeaked with any movement, but still a good sleep. Town of Lakeland was interesting due to once being a gold mine town.

This property is a little unconventional. It is not like a typical hotel at all. There is no check-in counter or any of the usual features you might see in a hotel. HOWEVER, the staff member who checked me in was very professional. The hotel was in constant communication with me, met me at the door when I arrived. Check in was quick and easy. I was escorted to my room, shown the features and then left with instruction about how to contact staff if there was any need. The room and building was very clean. The room was more like an apartment than a typical hotel room, with a full kitchen, sofa and chair, TV, separate bedrooms and bathroom. The bathroom lacked a little vanity space, but was otherwise great. The bedroom was spaceous, bed comfortable, but could use closet/hanger facilities. The ventilation fan in the kitchen is pretty low-powered, so I wouldn't trust it to evacuate heavy cooking smells. It was fully stocked with pots, pans, dishes & cutlery. The unit does not look like it is air conditioned, however this was not a problem for me at this time because the weather was cool and AC was not needed. Overall, the property offers excellent value and I would absolutely stay again.

I realize this property is currently under renovations. Over all it was clean, and the staff excellent. Had difficulty finding the Office but over all a nice place
