Sheza Renegade Posted March 2, 2019 Share Posted March 2, 2019 Can anyone from experience tell me which hotel is best for sledders in Kap that's on the trail or easy access? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gobills Posted March 2, 2019 Share Posted March 2, 2019 Super 8 is a great spot. Pool, breakfast with waffels(slomo approved), nice and clean. Comfort inn is there as well no pool a little cheaper. I can not comment on any of the other motels in town as I have not stayed at them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
revrnd Posted March 2, 2019 Share Posted March 2, 2019 The Advantage on the west end is close to Papa Franco's for eats. A bunch of us OCers stayed there last March. Basic clean rooms right across from TOP A. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Basic clean rooms right across from TOP A. revrnd will not support the Apollo motel since they took out their indoor pool and did not lower the rates However I have been there a few times - next to Papa Francos, sled trail A easy access across the street, prices last time I stayed $85 per night, multiple nights reduced rates. (sledders rate) The Advantage has kitchenette suites (ref. sledjunk) that might be handy though at roughly the same price. Both places have tons of parking. No knock on the Comfort Inn - stayed there in the summer - but the intersection it is at gets very busy at plant shift change time, more so if a train is going by. Still, it is handy to downtown services. Rouski's will be handy. Local person Claire Voyant might have advice on the Travelodge. Wherever you go ask for the snowmobiler's rate, particularly at Super 8 which was $115 last time we stayed. A&W and gas next door. Rooms 107 and 109 will give you a view of the parking spots just outside where you can park your sleds. Close to ground floor front door so you aren't all sweated up heading outside. Yep, love that waffle machine Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep, love that waffle machine I agree re the Comfort Inn. Traffic can be a bit hairy at that intersection. The Travelodge is easy to get to but is hidden behind the Esso so it seems to be forgotten. Just follow the lane behind the Esso. Quiet location. Their parking lot is huge. Breakfast included. Walking distance to c-store, several restaurants, the Sunshine Tavern (acoustic Thursdays and Fridays!). Club and District supporter. Snowmobile rate available.

Turbo Doo Posted March 5, 2019 Share Posted March 5, 2019 We stayed at the comfort inn on Friday night last week. Nice place, but dont think we will go back to O briens anytime soon. Slow service. Food ok at best. Not reccomended from me.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The restaurants in Kap leave a lot to be desired, but, believe it or not, the bowling alley (Northside Lanes) has become our go-to place. Best pizza in town...and they deliver! Stone cooked crust, and the "Super Deluxe" is to die for. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, walking distance from the Comfort Inn. Great cook there but we've found the hours a little erratic sometimes so we tend to forget about it.
