Thriftlodge by Wyndham Regina North

In my business traveling career, I have spent at least 2000 nights in hotel rooms. This undoubtedly was the second worst experience. Unbeknownst to me, the annual Saskatchewan Agribition farmfest was on with literally thousands of people from rural Saskatchewan staying in the city. I tried my regular place but they were all booked up. I checked ******* and there was virtually nothing available in the city so I ended up at the north end Thriftlodge. I don't really know where to begin. At check-in, there was no Lobby or Office to come in out of the cold which was 17 below zero, just a sliding window at face height. It's a motel not a hotel at a noisy, busy light on Albert Street. I enter my room and immediately notice they did not vacuum up after the previous guests. I start to unpack and as I am putting my toiletries around the vanity sink and move a face towel, a large beetle runs for dear life across the counter. I slam down the heel of my hand to successfully kill it before it escapes to the bedroom thinking it was a cockroach. I succeeded and was mistaken, just a big beetle hiding out in my room for winter. I go to hang up my shirts and suits. There is no closet or towel rack. Just a shelf above the toilet with towels on top. Underneath is a doweling attached with fixed hangars. Your clothes are hanging over the toilet so you have to sweep them aside to sit down! And no lotion due to COVID! Fistfights, crashing about and yelling at 3am both nights. Avoid at all costs.

I did have set backs checking in but the lady was fairly reasonable after all. I had major issues with picking up a forgotten item and was super insulted by the older man. He was entirely disrespectful. I do not recommend this hotel to anyone mostly based on the trea**ent I received. Overall it was clean and maintained and that was super important to me. Didn’t realize it was in such a bad area. Shoukd have read reviews first

The owner is extremely rude and unprofessional. The pictures of the room shown on website are very nice but in reality it's totally the opposite. Wyndham should look into this. Very disgusting place and front desk.

Very unfriendly and aggressive reception, lots of bugs in the accommodation, traffic and train noise, breakfast was 1 apple, 1 maffin, 1/2 orange juice, heating fan extremely loud

I will never wish my ememy to stay there. I paid for a nonsmoking room with twin ben enen though i was alone but they give me one bed and said to me u booked online there's nothing we can do. Worse place every.Ghetto@

It was advertised at $65 on cheep tickets didn’t say that was US $ We could have booked a much better place for the same price we ended up paying in Canadian $ Only thing good was the kerig coffee machine

Basic room. Clean. Helpful staff. Bagged breakfast was ok. Check in was thru a window which could have been better marked.

The hotel staff were friendly. The hotel has been around for a while but was not severely dated in decor. The beds were comfortable and the room was clean. Being on the main highway to head north to Saskatoon is a plus. Several restaurants in the area to choose from.

My reservation was canceled because the guy at the desk just didn’t like my face. My reservation was cancelled at 2:00 am when I arrived Regina. Was very difficult to communicate with, and for no reason you just cancelled and left someone stranded at night. Not a good place to be in
