What guests think

At Howard Johnson by Wyndham Grande Prairie, reviews are mixed, with many praising the friendly front desk and low prices, while recurring complaints cite poor cleanliness, worn maintenance, and unpleasant odors across some rooms and common areas.

The location is convenient for errands, with Costco, Walmart, restaurants, and a shopping plaza nearby, and drive-up parking is handy, though the surrounding area and weekend noise sometimes feel sketchy. Breakfast is a very limited grab-and-go, Wi-Fi can be unreliable, and room conditions vary widely—from comfortable beds or refreshed touches to dated fixtures that need attention. Expect a basic, budget stay if you prioritize price and proximity over polish.

The lady who checked me in, Dik something, was amazing!! I forgot to book a pet friendly room, upon check in she upgraded me for no extra cost. She was helpful, respectful and understanding. The rooms are way nicer than I remember. Parking still stinks but it’s an older motel. AMAZING beds and comfortable. Will come back :)

The place is a bit run down but for the price with a kitchenette it was all good. Proper brick walls between rooms is nice. Can’t hear anything from the people next door. Can park right in front of your room.

Staff is friendly. I like that you can park right in front of your room. However, the room was really hot. Had to keep the window open most of the time in the middle of winter.

Parking lot was solid ice. Snow was only plowed out once. Had to walk over snow pile to get from room to truck. Very little salt or sand was applied to ice

I was under the impression that Wyndham hotels/motels were very respectable places! Man was I in for a shocking surprise! This place was filthy! I wiped the ring in the tub with the bath mat and it turned black where it touched the filthy tub! The bathroom window was a single pane on one side with a dirty stick shoved in the corner diagonally which obviously served no purpose! I took pictures to put on fb to warn others! This is by far the dirtiest motel I have ever seen! Even the plugins were grimy and not what you would touch without gloves! The noice was unbearable, some guy sitting out by my door smoking and the smoke was coming in my room I had to shut the door every time I brought an item in the place! I am over the roof disgusted with this dirty place and a health inspector needs to look at this place and condemn it !!!

Staff were very friendly and helpful. The state of the room felt outdated and worn. There were water stains on the mismatched ceiling tiles. There was dirt in the bedsheets. We killed a spider in a spiderweb between the wall and the floor, making us question whether the floor had been cleaned. There was a musty smell in the room.

Bathroom was Pretty Dirty. Hairs on the wall some kind of Brown Guck on the shower shelf. Dirty Kleenex n napkins in the drawers. Dirty Microwave also was a Used Coffee Pod left in the machine. Cleaning girl was Impatient to get to our Room n left her cart right outside the door a when told her How Dirty the room was she didn’t say Anything. Just shrugged her shoulders. Not a Very Polite or Professional Worker

Front desk clerk (Filipino girl) was excellent to deal with very professional & courteous. Extremely disappointed in the condition & cleanliness of the hotel. What was displayed on the website did not even come close to what the room and decor were like. The website was a false misrepresented of what to expect and i would not stay here again nor would I recommend it to my worst enemy. We found dead bugs on the floor, the coffee machine still had the previous customers coffee pod in the machine and you could tell the machine had not been cleaned for a while. The bathroom was bathtub was disgusting it was old stained and the caulking was a disgrace. The floor in the entire room was uneven, hollows and dips not to mention the leak and the mold underneath the AC unit. Would not recommend this motel to my worst enemy. Not good was to represent the Howard Johnson Chain.

The bathroom floor, and maybe all floors, were dirty. There was a shabiness to the room. A lamp didn't work. There wasn't enough breakfast one day. The bathtub was badly marked. The bathroom window frame was cobwebby and dirty.

Room was srinky and damp. No coffee in the room. Floors were dirty, my feet were black. Beware they charge $50 extra for any dirty dishes. The sign was tucked behind the microwave. For the price i felt it was unexpectable.

The grout around the shower was coming off. The satellite tv kept disconnecting. If you just need a place to sleep then it’s a good spot, however a little overpriced for the conditions.

This was my third stay in one month. First two were good. We liked the small upgrades that made the rooms feel more put together and modern. We stayed in two different rooms the first times with no issues aside from the fact that the internet barely works if your not close to the office (since they know this they shouldn’t be able to advertise there accommodations as having wifi) On our third trip we stayed in room 26 and both beds were horrible. My husband and I tossed and turned all night. I myself became very sore and woke up like I had been beat with a stick in the ribs and back. Very disappointing.

At check-in when we showed up, we waited in the lobby for 10+ minutes while no staff was present. We tried calling the front desk and no answer. Finally a gentleman showed up and was wanting to take a copy of every person in our party’s ID, which I had never seen before at any hotel I have stayed at. The room was dirty. The floor had very clearly not been cleaned.

The front desk was friendly and the room was clean. Lots of weird people in the area and the walls are paper thin. Being the long weekend probably contributed to the clientele. If you are looking for a cheap place to rest when passing through it would do but lots of homeless and addicts in the area.

nitially, I was given a room where someone had parked their car, so they had to move me to another room to accommodate the parking. Upon entering the new room, I noticed that the electrical switchboard was broken, with some wires exposed. The bathtub, shower rod, and shower head were also damaged, and there was no Wi-Fi available. In the morning, the breakfast offered was only continental, consisting of fruit, muffins, and coffee, although their advertisement on Expedia promised a full breakfast, which I found misleading.

Place not as described in the website. Very dated and holes in walls. 1 bed was not made and had to ask staff to finish making. Went to have breakfast at 0830 and doors locked. Called the number on the door and went to voicemail. I called 2 hours later and person who answered just said hi. I had to ask if this was the hotel. Front staff friendly though. Would not stay here again.

Old and run down and overpriced. Exterior door doesn’t even close well. Light, air, and probably rodents can easily enter. We paid $130/nt here ( Expedia) and that’s ridiculous. I almost turned around and asked for my money back once I arrived and saw the property. This should be $60/nt or less. Very disappointed. Pics online are very deceiving. Breakfast includes a muffin, yogurt, an apple or orange and coffee. When you see properties cutting corners like this where it’s super obvious, it makes you wonder where else they cut corners. Do they actually clean/change the sheets?

They offered a limited continental breakfast and nowhere to sit down and eat it. The bed skirt was ripped and coming off of the bed, the sheets were not white, the pillows were bunched up inside and cases not clean, the floor was not clean and there was something sticky spilled by the night stand that we needed to clean up. You could hear people talking outside and I woken up by door slamming. The door to the unit was coming apart on the door sill and the weather stripping was falling off of the frame on the side of the door. The room they showed on the advertising was not like that. It was false advertising. I would not recommend it to anyone and nor will we stay there again. My only good thing to say was the checkoiut staff was pleasant and it had easy access.
