8:30pm - Arrived in Saskatoon


Had a bit of an adventurous arrival in Saskatoon. We were scheduled to stay at the Thrift Lodge, but we turned up to find a room squished into a corner, under the stairwell, with two differently sized beds, a huge shag carpet, and men leering at us from the upper balcony. Not to mention the key to our room didn't work, which apparently is a common problem. We made up an excuse to leave and got out of the cancellation fee (or so we think, but she still has our credit cards on file...). We moved to Hotel Senator, which is a boutique hotel right downtown, and it costs the exact same thing as the Thrift Lodge. We were skeptical at first because there were some bad reviews online, but our room turned out to be amazing, the location was perfect, there was free parking, and free (but very slow) internet! 
A pretty good move after all...
