The room smells like gum over cigarette smoke. The receptical beside the bed doesn’t work. The Bed is comfortable. No coffee amenities. Quiet enough.

The bed was comfortable and the linens soft and crisp. The room was basic but clean. Water starting to run in the tub was VERY loud and woke me when my partner started to shower. Check in staff were friendly and welcoming.

The check in was easy, the person checking me in was pleasant. The room was clean. No bad odors. Shower was strong and hot. Bed comfortable. Basic room. No coffee maker in it or hairdryer. Heat was easy to adjust. Fridge and microwave in room.
It’s just a very old hotel but great if on a budget.

This place was run down. Upkeep was not their first priority. Linen was clean but carpet disgusting. Mold in the bathroom walls and ceiling. Convenient parking and restaurants in the area. I would not recommend this place unless it was your last choice. Will never stay there again.

Satisfactory for the price.
The room was ok, had cable tv, a microwave and mini fridge. Room temperature was fine which was good as there was only one thing blanket provided.
No coffee maker in the room.

Is this property an undiscovered gem? No. Is it an apparently underutilized resource? Absolutely. No frills. Not particularly pretty. Limited parking. BUT… if passing thru and on a budget, this motel checks all the necessary boxes. Clean. Pet friendly. Fairly quiet. One floor. Restaurants nearby. Comfortable beds.

The property appears to be being upgraded. The room was spotless and new appliances, bedding, paint, flooring. Hoping for a good nights sleep travelling long days - sadly the drunk fighting couple next door created much noise from 1 to 5 am. Bad luck on our part. Won’t likely stay again, will be wanting 24 hour desk in future. That said / motel itself was adequate for overnight stay.

Definitely would not recommend. Was a last minute decision travelling across Canada. Looked at the pics and reviews and just wanted a decent clean comfortable bed and clean room/washeoom. I chose the queen bed, non refundable and if it wasn’t so exhausted when I arrived and fearful of being a danger on the road I would have left and kept driving. What you see in the pictures is NOT what you get.
