Had an excellent stay at the badlands motel! Check in was very easy, and they were able to accomidate a late check out request. The room was clean with AC and a fridge, and it was a short drive to the center of town. Will stay there any time i'm back in Drumheller!

Good price for the room and shares a great breakfast/diner restaurant. Has a nice view of the badlands outside and was quiet at night time. Needs proper renovations not masked, showers were weak, you have to choose between open curtains with a/c cooling the room or a/c cooling the closed curtains

Is a good spot to stay if you have children and need a suite to prepare food. Also, the attached restaurant serves good meals and reasonably priced. Good location too.

I wish the fridge had a freezer, though they did supply an ice bucket which a staff member filled for me. Glad to see recycling bins. These are often missing in hotels/motels.

The staff were helpful and courteous. Rooms were clean and comfortable. We had a kitchenette. Only thing was the pots and pans weren't sufficient so we had to go buy so we could make supper. Only bad thing found was the bathroom exhaust fan was disgustingly dirty. We very much enjoyed our stay tho.

Had an issue with the Room being extremely HOT so when I contacted the Owner he looked into it immediately & shortly after he went into the basement to check it out the problem was fixed within minutes. Restaurant on site with Fantastic food that has a small Thomas the Train that going around the top of the ceiling throughout the whole Restaurant. Dynamite to witness:) Absolutely stay there again. Thank You!!! CR

The room smelled so much like cigarette smoke that it inflamed my lungs and I had to leave because I couldn’t breathe. If you have sensory issues or asthma, stay away.
