Siesta Motel

Older motel showing some wear but mostly well kept. Very clean. It was hot outside and, I found the AC didn't cool the room much. One of the 2 beds was very comfortable, the other was old and not comfortable. Breakfast is toast, bagel, yogurt. Not much else. Apparently a few muffins if you get there at 8 am when the door opens. The check in was efficient and pleasant. There is a small grassy area fenced on 3 sides where you can take your dog.

Cheap overnight accommodation that takes pets.

I spent one night at this motel. I was greeted at the front desk by the manager, who was friendly and helpful. He gave me a choice of room types - standard arrangement with 2 double beds or a sort of split room with one sleeping area with a double bed separated from the other sleeping area (queen) by a small kitchenette and bathroom. I chose the separate sleeping areas so that my teenage daughter and I could have our own space. The room was basic, with few amenities, but sufficient for our limited needs. The beds were comfortable and the kitchenette had some basic, but well stocked, items. The rooms do not have deadbolts but do lock from the outside and had safety chains. My only complaint would be that our room (113) was located right behind the ice machine and pop machine area and the compressor or motor from the machines was very noisy. If you like white noise, this room is for you! My daughter slept in the queen sleeping area (furthest from the ice/pop machines) and didn’t hear the noise, but it was very loud for the front sleeping area. This motel was sufficient for our basic needs and if I were to pass through again, I would stay here again. I found that the bathroom walls and baseboard heaters would have benefited from some more detailed cleaning, and our bedside lamp was very dusty, but otherwise the room was clean and serviceable.

We had to bring our dogs on vacation so needed a pet friendly place to stay. Bed was super comfy. Only thing missing was a hair dryer.

The Siesta was very pleasant and the owner, John, a delight. He was concerned that I was happy! The room was basic and clean; there was the standard fridge and microwave, but also a stovetop and some utensils. It was very affordable and I would definitely stay again if I were in the area.

Pleasant and helpful staff. We had trouble with and the lock on the door. Man came right away and figured it out. Tv was unplugged from a box. WD on the door and it worked quite well after. Room is clean. Beds are comfortable. Laminate floor. No dirty rugs:) Its quite cold and able to plug my car in. I'm happy. Will book again.

Clean room. Nice check-in. Noisy neighbourhood at night, unfortunately to start with, but did quiet down. The price of the room is excellent. Fridge and microwave worked well.

It was convenient but noisy and limited breakfast and parking space

Clean and no complaints. The room i booked had a kitchenette. Nice to have the extra room. Pet friendly with a good potty area for the dogs. Will stay there again.

Clean comfortable room with all the basic necessities. Rooms are dated but the price is great value. Good place to stay with our dog. There is a partially fenced in grass area in the back.

Clean, easy, cheap.

Bedding hadn’t been changed and was dirty. Counters were dirty from previous guests. Won’t stay there again. We were given 50% off of price but had to ask for a discount.

there was blood splatters on the wall, in the shower curtain and on the bathroom floor. bedding was clean but did not feel comfortable walking around the room without shoes

Overall Impression The owner was fabulous and very reasonable with our requests, which made the stay smoother. That said, the motel itself is very outdated and could use some serious improvements in cleanliness and upkeep. Room & Cleanliness The rooms were functional but not exactly clean — behind the bathroom door was especially grimy, and the towel rod was crookedly attached to the wall. The sheets were stained (with blood, unfortunately, and not mine), which was very off-putting. Furniture was mismatched, though having a table and chairs was convenient. Amenities Some things weren’t set up properly on arrival: the microwave wasn’t plugged in, and the air conditioner also had to be plugged in — once running, it was extremely loud, like pots and pans clanging together. The TV channel selection was poor, so we ended up streaming on my phone instead. Atmosphere It seemed like there were long-term tenants on the property who smoked heavily. Even though I was in a non-smoking room, it smelled as if they were smoking right next to me, which was unpleasant and my biggest complaint. Value & Purpose This is not a place I’d recommend for a special occasion or event. However, if you just need a spot to sleep while attending something else daily, it works. I tried to think of it like staying at an elderly relative’s house — not fancy, a bit rough around the edges, but serviceable. Would I Stay Again? Yes, I would stay again, mainly because of the helpful owner and the convenience.

Very clean, comfortable and cozy. Highly recommend staying here.

The room/walls were very dirty. Bathtub was horrible. No phone in the room or hairdryer. Definitely needs alot of work. Would not stay there again.

My son stayed here last weekend. The reviews looked decent enough and it was a close, inexpensive option for him. The bathtub had obviously not been cleaned for what looked like weeks. Unacceptable.

Room was old but was clean. Price was good. Only issue was smoke smell in the room.

You get what you pay for- dirty walls, food in fridge, dirty bathroom.

The bathroom was very delapidated and really needs to be updated. Also, the strong odor of febreeze was terrible.

Arrived checked in , room was bigger than expected and clean. I believe it was redone hotel, paint looked new and very clean.

Very noisy.

the a/c is tucked up high and hard to reach

Overall stay was amazing, but the walls were paper thin and so was the roof. Clean everywhere, includong the lot

They checked us onto a room with no AC and both beds were not great, very creaky! Someone came to look at the AC and told us that the next day they would fix it or move us to a new room, when the owner would be there. The next morning the owner asked us if we could wait one more day, we said no. We wanted to be moved as it was hot outside. He moved us to a with working AC and a much more comfortable bed. The breakfast is pathetic! Nothing healthy to eat, only sugary cereals and breads. We ended going to the grocery store and buying our own breakfast and went to Smitty's right across the street. Other than the breakfast and the experience with the first room, it was fine. The price is reasonable.

It was ok. Room was clean but older. Beds were not comfortable.

Very budget stay, room was hot, room had 1970's AC unit that didn't really do anything but make noise. No hot water at all. Room was 3/4 updated.

Really enjoyed our stay. Great prices on spacious rooms and staff were very accommodating.

The bed was comfortable and clean. The room was definitely in need of some TLC! Our biggest issue was that the people upstairs were literally rearranging furniture at midnight! Called the front desk and was told he would go and talk to them. It did finally get quieter but didn’t completely stop🙁

First time in Olds for an appointment and I wish I would’ve spent the extra few bucks on any other place! The only pet friendly room they had was under the stairs in a corner of the building so traffic up and down kept us awake all night. The pillows smelled like they hadn’t been washed! The floors were gritty and the soap bottles were refilled and wrote on with marker. The door lock barely turned with key. The office smelled like cigarettes and even though I complained to the staff about the conditions, all I got was a smile. I’m not one to usually complain, but this was, without a doubt, the worst motel I have ever stayed at in 58 years! Don’t do it!

Staff very responsive to our complaint about the folks above us making noise all night with their dog

Extremely nice, friendly and helpful staff.

The room I was originally in didn’t fully meet my needs, as soon as I mentioned this to the owners they moved me to a room that was perfect for what I was looking for. The staff are amazing and the motel is very well kept.

Owner/Manager helpful with non working cable box late at night

Bathroom wasnt clean, and the "deadbolt" on the door was falling out of the wall. Owner did nothing about it

Booked in new years eve and when i got to hotel they double booked me had to drive 2 hours home. when they finally picked up phone Owner refused to refund me. Absolute slum motel

Moved to ground floor because I had crutchhes

The room was terribly Smokey smelling and the owners wouldn’t refund us the full cost of the room. Very disappointed that we had to move hotels and spend another $200

The motel is old but the beds, rooms and bathrooms are clean. For the price, it was a good choice and we would stay there again. It is within walking distance to a Smitty’s - the food was excellent - 2 liquor stores, a Mexican restaurant and Subway.

Great Price and location

Affordable, quiet and near the venue I was in town for.

This property is very quaint and quiet. Perfect for a short stay. It is very close to a lot of amenities. Staff was friendly in assisting me check in.

Great customer service, location is convenient but is noisy being right off the main drag.

The motel is conveniently located near the center of Olds. The rooms were pretty good, and clean but not excellent It came with a small microwave and small fridge. The TV would have been better if it was a bit bigger . The beds were comfortable .overall I would rate it 31/2out of 5

older hotel, comfortable and quiet close to restaurant and shopping

Clean room. Nice check-in. Noisy neighbourhood at night, unfortunately to start with, but did quiet down. The price of the room is excellent. Fridge and microwave worked well.

It was a nice clean area. Walkable to different facilities.

easy access to main road through Olds

Price was fair. Bed was ok. Walls and floor were not clean but the sheets and towels were cleaned. The staff was very friendly. The continental breakfast was lacking quantity.

DECENT BUT NO PHONE IN THE ROOM. BREAKFAST WAS ALRIGHT BUT WE HAD TO ASK FOR SOME ITEMS AS THEY WERE EMPTY.

Good beds in basic motel. Breakfast options are limited,

We felt this room was good value for what we paid. The room was clean and quiet. We enjoyed the continental breakfast. The breakfast room was a bit small with only one table for 4. For the breakfast time from 8 to 9 it should include travellers only. The room was smoke free which is very important for my asthma. The staff were great. Thanks C+B

Positive : bed was comfortable, I liked that there was a lot of channel option, the breakfast was ok, bread, cereal, muffins, juice and milk. Negative: I could hear the person snore next door so imagine... the bathtub is in such a bad condition its hard to tell if it was clean or not, I found a few hair, the floor was so dirty I wonder when it was cleaned last. On the description it says laundry room but not for customers use, the office said I could ask the maid to do my laundry but im not comfortable with people doing my laundry. Thats just me but it should say on the description. I wont go back

I would stay here again. Staff was friendly. Room was clean. Issues; there was a moldy coffee filter in the coffee machine, paint coming off the wall in the bathroom and the breakfast is the smallest I've ever seen (space and options).

8 am breakfast??? We leaving at 7 am Toilet holder don't have screw on it, it fell out. Tiny bit shampoo, barely enough for two people. Charged more when we showed up.( We booked online and different price when show up in person)

We were disappointed that the advertised breakfast was lacking. The stay was good. We will stay there again.
