NEVER again !
Stains on sheets, carpet and bed covers, hair in the bathtub, broken air conditioner, guests smoking in their rooms, bums & homeless people hanging around the building smoking weed, but the reason we decide to leave was people fighting in the elevator and in the hallway.

This hotel room was an immediate disappointment. The room stank of cigarette smoke, body odour, and general dirtiness. The blankets had burn marks, dirt, and red lipstick stains on them which made us wonder if the smoke alarm was working- it was not. The bathroom had bits of toilet paper on the floor, grime on the faucet, and the shower curtain was moldy along the bottom. We actually went out to buy some bleach and disinfectant spray to feel comfortable using the space. We noticed that people were sitting around the property in the parking lot at all hours, which made us feel unsafe in conjunction with the loose door locks and evident tearing out of chain bolts that had been painted over. Only two bath towels were offered- no bath mat, hand towel, or face cloths. We were very surprised that a property like this was even available through the Avion Rewards program. I would not have used my points on this hotel had I known the condition it was in- the pictures on the Avion website were not accurate at all. I would not recommend this hotel and I will be looking to have my points redeemed.

There was a homeless camp just down the road. The a/c was super loud and did not work properly. Sheets were dingy yellow and stained, along with everything else in the room. Overall run down and dirty conditions, did not feel overly safe in this location.

The room that we stayed has a broken window screen, ripped window curtains, dusty A/C, fridge is warm (not cold enough) despite adjusting the temp and the A/C is not suited to cool the entire room (too small for the size of the room), that is why our room is too hot on a summer day.

Pay for a room I didn’t sleep in. Scammed me
I accidentally booked the he room for Thurs July 18th by accident but needed room for 19th. It was a mistake and upon checking in the front desk told me that they had no rooms. The desk said there was no rooms available anywhere in Saskatoon. I went back on hotels.com and trivalgo with no luck. Called every hotel and motel within a 50km radius of the city. My father had a PET scan this morning being reason we were in the city. Nothing for hotels or motels anywhere and ended up sleeping in dad’s car until 1030 when I got a email saying travelodge south had a room but it was 525 for two doubles and basic room. Then I just got a email saying that Colonial square charged me 118 dollars when I didn’t stay there. Told guy at front desk to cancel res. This isn’t right that u charged me.

Hot, smelly room
The staff is helpful and the beds are comfortable. The area around the hotel does not feel safe as there were a number of people loitering/sleeping on the sidewalk on the hotel property when we arrived. The room smelled terrible like wet dog, and the AC ran all night loudly right next to my head without putting out much cool air. The price was good, for a reason.

The bath tub needed cleaning! No ice bucket. Ice machine on our floor not working so had to go one floor down for cups of ice. Only one set of towels in room when we arrived but provided when we requested but then cleaners took two sets part way through stay and we had to get a second set again. Front desk staff friendly and helpful. Bed comfortable.

Before i even got to my room i was asked if i wanted to buy some crystal. There were people hanging around the property one female was banging on a room door woth her belongings piled outside the room. When i checked out the manager went to my room to do a damage check before i was allowed to check out. The pictures were not at all like my room. Although it was very dated it was somewhat clean. Mattresses were stained but sheets and pillows were clean. Not a comfortable atay.

This property should be removed from Expedia, it was dirty (dark ring around the tub like it had not been scrubbed in a year), and homeless people haggling with the front desk clerk to get a room but couldn’t afford the deposit (despite having pets). I checked-in and 30 mins later found a different hotel and returned to check-out from this place. Mngr asked why I was checking out and I responded it is just gross and I won’t live this way. I figured either my vehicle would be damaged or someone would try to break-in to the room, not worth it. Expedia tried to get me some money back but the mngr refused. This place should be avoided.

This property is one of the older hotels and in while not in a bad part of Downtown Saskatoon, is on a pretty dingy street. The property facade's is outdated and requires some serious renovations. The worst part is that it didn't feel or smell clean. The room itself was sufficient for my purposes but the AC was a portable unit and there were a few sections of the wall that needed proper touch ups. My biggest issue was that the cleaning staff did a terrible job, there was a pizza box at the elevator during my entire stay and there were sections of the hotel that smelled horribly. The vending machines also didn't work. This could be such a quaint hotel if management put some TLC and money into it. Won't be coming back.

Cost too much for what you get!
Its older but in good condition. The A/C was caked in dust, so I had to clean it before turning it on and the carpet could be vacuumed better. Our room had two queens but only two towels, two hand towels, no wash clothes, no bath mat, one bar of soap, one shampoo, one conditioner for four people . The fridges freezer had so much ice buildup I could not put my food in it. There was two plastic cups and two paper cups but no coffee machine? Ive paid less for nicer accommodations with breakfast included.
