Room was clean. There was a microwave, fridge and coffeemaker in our room.
Rooms clean and quiet. Convenient access to everything. All staff very nice, serious about you enjoying your stay and coming back again. Breakfast area very clean and everything you need. Dog friendly. Definitely the best choice in town, pleased with value, location, safety and cleanliness especially compared to alternatives. Buildings old, a bit rough looking in parking lot with weeds/gravel but that’s it for complaints…

The staff was courteous and the room was clean. However, the phone wasn’t hooked up properly—it wasn’t a big deal—I just made sure the plugs were tightly in place, and then it worked. I couldn’t get my iPhone to accept the password, and when it finally, the internet had very poor connection—there were long pauses while it tried to connect The password never did work on my iPad. I kept turning up the heat but it was slow to respond—I was very thankful it was a mild night. Other than those things, we are enjoying our stay.

We stopped here for night on our way to Winnipeg. Our only complaint is that the AC didn't make much difference even though we had it on all night. Was nice and unexpected to have a fridge and microwave in the room. Free shared bbq for guests also and free continental breakfast.

They have tried to fix his property up.
Staff was friendly.
I didn’t like parking in the alleyway, so I opted to go in underground parking.
Clean, comfortable beds. I liked how they had sink outside of the washroom as well as a three-piece bathroom.
Having a kitchenette in the room was a bonus.

One weekend of each summer, my partner and I come and stay in the Gateway Motel. We have always enjoyed it and have never had complaints with the service, accommodation, and like the rustic appearance of the motel surrounded by nature. I love the lighting around the area and it reminds me of many small towns I have lived in. At times, the clerk checking in people can across as a little abrupt but we will be back next summer. Thank you Gateway Motel❤️
