Reviews for Nomad Motel
Review 1：I didn't like that i was only there 11 hours. It was a pit stop before heading home the next day
Review 2：Manager was very accommodating. Upgraded me to a bottom unit to avoid the stairs. Very nice. Room was clean and well put together. The sleep was a good comfy sleep.
Review 3：Cleaning staff need more training. Even contract workers wouldn't like to find pubic hairs in and around the tub and bathroom. Mattress in room 114 needs to be replaced, springs sticking out of the side. Despite these negatives we had a good sleep.
Review 4：It was the best deal we could find and it was about half way to our destination. Good WiFi. Value for money.
Review 5：No possibility to open window, hot weather and very noisy air conditionner and outside surrounding... rest and sleep were difficult to find
Review 6：low price and good location, staff
Review 7：I had reserved a room online, and when I got their there was no vacancy, I was quite upset being I had booked a room online. They had rented the rooms to a rig crew who probably paid a pretty penny for them, in my opinion it was just greediness on the nomad motels part. Because of this I probably won't be booking rooms with them again. Very very unhappy!!!!!!
Review 8：The a/c was loud and was very localized. Everything was a bit outdated and felt worn, but we felt this is fair for the price we paid.
Review 9：We liked the pool, having a kitchen in the room and that there was a/c.
Review 10：The outside is run down but the room was nice and well kept.
Review 11：The breakfast was really good...was worth the wait. Restaurant was not busy...only one other table but took them about 10 minutes before we were served...fortunately we were not in a big rush.
Review 12：Dirty. Bugs alive and dead. Broken air conditioner, toilet was practically under the bathroom sink. Carpets were absolutely filthy. Wore my shoes the whole time.
Review 13：Rooms were okay, large stains on carpet could use cleaning, otherwise good
Review 14：Office staff friendley, Very helpful. Very quite as close to main road and train tracks. Would stay there again.
Review 15：The staff is extremely friendly and helpful. The idea of offering breakfast at the reception is great even though cooking facilities are provided. The bed was very comfortable, great heating too even though I was on the ground floor.
Review 16：breakfast was abit weak, toast and some fruit. rooms had coffee makers but no coffee supplies but I travel with my tassimo so was fine for me.
Review 17：quite surprised by the size of the room including a very nice kitchen
Review 18：owners Luke and Janet are great! great kitchenette. cable tv package is awesome even includes hbo and movie channels. very clean. one of my favorite motels when I travel
Review 19：the tub was old, stained and the grouting was cracked and awful-looking, the rest of the bathroom was fine.
Review 20：the staff were very friendly and generous, everything was very clean.
Review 21：Needed some paint on the outside.
Review 22：We had the two bedroom suite, it had thermopane windows which made the room guite quiet even though it was on the main road.
Review 23：I wouldn't call it a dislike, but the way the bathroom is put together (this was all three of our two bed rooms) you end up with your knees under the sink while seated on the toilet. If you have moving issue you ma need to set down and swivel in. The heated pool is heated by solar, make a note of this if it hasn't been sunny for a few days, it was ice cold when we decided we had to jump in.
Review 24：The owners (I assume a family, given the varied ages and the children) were very polite and worked hard to make sure everyone was happy. It was very clean. There weren't coffee pots in the rooms, though they found two for our three groups (six people total) when we asked and brought us coffee creamers etc.
Review 25：The cold pool would like to have gone swimming but way to cold
Review 26：Very clean and friendly motel nice owners will always stay there when in crank brook and will tell my friends about it for sure
Review 27：toilet too close to sink grasshoppers in room hair on carpet floor poor cleanliness heated pool freezing in 25 degree heat outside
Review 28：staff parking restaurants close by
Review 29：Pool was cold and not very clean Some simple maintenance needed doing to unit (loose door knob, burnt out light bulbs needed changing)
Review 30：Reasonable rates Clean and comfortable rooms Full kitchen with proper stove, not just a hot plate. Quiet, but we did not have neighbours.
Review 31：Fairly tight n few parking and the wifi was very poor
Review 32：The price was right, very helpful and friendly staff and very clean especially for such an old motel
Review 33：All was "good".
Review 34：As the Town of Cardston is completely devoid of someplace to have a decent Breakfast (unless Subway rings your chimes), this is a property that should figure out a Continental Breakfast as part of their offering.
Review 35：It is very out dated, which allows the price to work.
Review 36：We liked the motel, it was clean, the staff were very friendly and helpful. The pool area was pleasant, lots of flower baskets. We were on our motorcycles so the focus was not the motel but the ride. Good for the price but not fancy.
Review 37：Could be upgraded and the washroom setup was not ideal.
Review 38：Older motel which could use some upgrades. The room was clean and the bed was comfortable. Owner was polite and helpful.
Review 39：There wasn't much we didn't like, great price, lots of things in walking and or driving distance.
Review 40：Staff was very friendly and Helpful, knew us by name after the first day. Pool was great in the heat and having access to 3 different BBQ's was great including one by the outdoor pool. Swing and slide set near the outdoor pool.
Review 41：I loved that it has a pool and free WiFi and a breakfast in the morning. My son had so much fun and I had a great sleep, the beds were so comfortable.
Review 42：In desperate need of renovations. Floors, counters, tub, etc, so old, hard to tell if clean or just dingy from age. Could use an update in furniture as well, couch very lumpy. TV in bedroom didn't even work. Wifi signal hit and miss depending where you are in room.
Review 43：Location is good, near shopping and many restaurants. Staff helpful and friendly.
Review 44：waited about 10 minutes before someone came to help us. wasn't aware that price was for solo occupancy. (is double-occupancy not the regular/legal pricing?)
Review 45：location was convenient. bed was comfortable. price was great.
Review 46：The breakfast could be better, i.e. whole wheat bread and muffins for diabetics who cannot eat white bread and a few tables ouside near the buffet.
Review 47：Odor from air-conditioner was unpleasant. Property needs upgrade. Early risers must wait for services - office does not open until mid-morning.
Review 48：Parking and location were good. Staff were pleasant and helpful. Bike friendly. Pool was well-kept, and we had a quiet stay without highway noise or partiers.
Review 49：We did not find any faults
Review 50：The motel is an older facilities, but well kept, rooms were clean, air conditioner worked, we were surprised it had a pool and enjoyed splashing around to cool off in the hot summer day. The owners/staff were very friendly and accommodating.
Review 51：The pool needed cleaning or was being cleaned, because it was so hot a quick swim would have been nice.
Review 52：It was clean, there was a full size fridge, most appreciated when it was so hot, and a futon in the living room was a very comfortable bed for the third person in our group. Also appreciated the breakfast supplied.

Review 86：The property is run down. the breakfast was lacking. The exterior especially was filthy.
Review 87：small rooms and dirty.
Review 88：The staff was very friendly and helpful. The room was quite adequate. Good value for the price.
Review 89：Unfortunately, the early excess noise due to the place of business directly behind the motel.
Review 90：The easy accessibility to the motel as well as the friendly and courteous staff.
Review 91：Window in Bathroom wouldn't open & there was no fan.
Review 92：Location right off main drag. Really nice guy @ the front desk recommended a place for dinner and offered to let us park our motorcycles under the awning. Simple rooms, and decent beds. I would stay there again if passing through on my bike.
Review 93：Outside balcony walkway to rooms was narrow, dirty and crowded. The stairs were steep and not very safe. Ashtrays crowded the railings. I would not recommend this facility.
Review 94：Bed was comfortable.
Review 95：Front desk staff very pleasant and helpful. Breakfast very good, owner went out of his way to supply us fresh fruit and cheese, fresh coffee. Quiet complex, comfortable, clean ground floor room. No noise from upper room. would stay there again. Value for money.
Review 96：They have free wifi yet have the time I was on my cellular network because the internet was so slow. And being on the main drag it is a little loud.
Review 97：The owners seemed like genuinely nice people, I didn't have too much contact with them but when I did they were friendly and helpful. And the value for your dollar is excellent.
Review 98：Bed was not good Breakfast poor No extra pillow in room Better lamp at bedside for reading Television reception poor
Review 99：Staff very friendly & helpful.
Review 100：Because of it's close proximity to the main highway going though Cranbrook and the age of the building road noise was an issue . especially trying to sleep with a window open.
Review 101：Value for money, it was the best I could find. Rooms were clean.Room service every 2nd day of my 5 day stay. I request Ed the cheapest room available, and when I arrived they gave me a kitchenet room for the same price as the basic room.
Review 102：Rooms are old and dingy. Walls were dirty, bathroom was so so. No coffee maker in room. had nothing to put ice in if I wanted it. Small fridge was not clean
Review 103：only really good thing was location in Cranbrook. right on the strip close to restaurants etc
Review 104：We were looking for a simple, clean overnight accommodation. However the property was disgusting. There was no way we could stay there. It was dirty. Sheets were stained. Property was falling apart. Fortunately, we were able to go down the street to a Days Inn that provided a decent alternative.
Review 105：At least the desk clerk refunded our money.
Review 106：It was tremendous value! It doesn't look like much from the outside but the room was comfortable and well kept and the staff were very friendly. They have a collection of movies you can watch, and a free light breakfast. It's definitely not luxury, but it's cozy and has great character.
Review 107：The breakfast was listed for 8:00 to 10:00 am it was not served by 8:16 and the office was still locked at that time. I left without having breakfast which was included in the price.
Review 108：price
Review 109：We couldn't figure out how to operate the remote control(s) for the television set without assistance from the maintenance staff. A quick lesson or, preferably, a demonstration at check-in would help to eliminate a little frustration upon entering a new and unknown living environment for some technically challenged individuals like ourselves. Other than that, our stay and the facilities were fantastic!
Review 110：Room was very spacious and very clean with full kitchen facilities (full stove, refrigerator, microwave, kitchen table and two chairs). Staff we dealt with were very friendly, knowledgeable and helpful. Couldn't possibly beat this Motel for the cost. Very impressed and highly recommended by both of us.
Review 111：Facility is tired. Maintenance is being done; but it's time for upgrades to most everything. Lots of road noise. Laundry needs new machines.
Review 112：Price was good. Owner was helpful and friendly.
Review 113：We stayed on a stop over between Banff and Post Falls, ID. The accommodations were modest but staff very friendly and accommodating. The unit was very clean.
Review 114：I left too early to see what the continental breakfast was like. It wasjust before 8:00 A.M. and coffee wasn't out yet.
Review 115：Our room was squeaky clean! The refrigerator was full size. It wasactually a kitchenette, which was a surprise. Yes, the sheets, towelsand exterior were older and well worn but everthing was very clean.
Review 116：- floor in bathroom was raised, maybe from a water leak. Sad cause it has been newly re-tiled. - 'breakfast' is only waffles, toast, coffee and tea. I am ok with this given what I paid.
Review 117：Obviously the owners care about their hotel and their are lots of litte touches. Be aware it was built in the 1960's and has some design flaws. If you are paying the same as a Holiday Inn, you are paying too much. It is all about what you expect for what you pay. I rate it 4/5 for what I paid.
Review 118：The motel was close to the hwy. so it was a bit noisy.
Review 119：Place was really clean and the staff were fantastic.
Review 120：easy to find- separate bedrooms nice and has full kitchen
Review 121：Beds where hard, everything else was amazing!
