Pros:

The breakfast was very good.

Cons:

Some bozo was smoking in the Non-smoking room before we were rented the room. I hoped they were fined! The staff were kind about it and took care of us though.

I would definitely stay a little longer next time I am through the area.
Pros:

The room was great. The location was great. The beds were comfortable. I had a restful night. It was quiet. The coffee was a delight first thing in the morning. The shower was refreshing and great pressure for a great comfort for the weary bones.

Overall, I would go back but request a room not in that particular hallway.
Pros:

Barneys Pub and Grill had fantastic food, as well as the breakfast at O'Brians was good. The breakfast voucher was a little confusing as it seemed we were getting a deal but the voucher for $16 per person only got us the breakfast that was $15.99 - if we ordered anything else we were told the price would be added - so really the voucher was not necessary.

Cons:

I was not overly impressed with the amount of people leaving the pub and instead of going out the pub door, people vacated the building via the hotel hallway which passes rooms. My room was unfortunately on the corner for the back door where people were exiting. Unnecessary door slamming which was not by paying hotel guests and the rooms are too expensive for this noise.

Best Wetaskiwin Has?!
Pros:

Clean and friendly staff. Connected to a Grill/Pub is convenient.

Cons:

The mattress was just way to gooshy for our backs and honestly the price was way overpriced at nearly $200 CA/$160 USD for a very tiny room in a very old but updated property.

Horrible
Pros:

I had a guest that only had a tea saying he did not want breakfast. He was still charged for the full breakfast. Horrible rip off.

Cons:

Not well trained staff who did not know how the POS works.

Excellent.
Pros:

The staff were amazing and very friendly and accommodating. We enjoyed our stay and like the restaurant. We had a view of the Barney's Fountain, which was nice.

Cons:

The room was a little smaller, but I booked a king bed room and should have booked a queen or suite room as I had a busy 6year old with me. :)

The pub onsite “Barney’s” has excellent food and the waitresses, Michelle and Dani, were very personal and fun!! The beds and pillows were so comfortable as well. Everything you need in the rooms. We will definitely come back.
