Room was large but renos were done poorly. But if you’re looking for a cheap, clean place to stay this is it. Breakfast was simple but good enough with eggs, bacon, sausages, hash browns, a variety juices, coffee, teas, milk, cereal.

It was a decent place to stay. It’s an older motel. Clean room that I was in. Room was cleaned daily. It’s a top of the line motel but it does in a pinch if you only need a night or two stay

Last minute stop and they were very accommodating. Quiet room and free parking. The place needs updating, but I think they are aware of that already. Has that 80’s vibe and still smell of the same smoke. At the end of the day, I slept well.

In wall heater/ ac did not work. Portable heater in room was also non- functional. Fortunately there were good blankets on a comfortable bed. Good breakfast in the morning. Considering the lower price than the alternatives, it was well worth the price of the stay

The rooms were not very clean. The property is certainly in disrepair, which is not reflected in the advertising. The sauna/steam room advertised has clearly not been in use for quite some time as it's currently being used as a storage facility. The fitness room is also in disrepair. Overall, for a last minute place to stay, it had clean sheets and a comfortable bed, so it does the job.

Not the best experience

Was a bit frustrating as all the lamps were unplugged so had to fumble in the dark to plug them in. Had to get maintenance to fix the heater as it would only blow cold air, once the very kind maintenance guy left and the heater was fixed, every time it kicked in it would make this awful noise until it kicked back off. The tv would turn on but had ‘no signal’ so it didn’t work for the duration of my trip. Although these things were not major issues, it was still quite frustrating. At least the check in was easy and the staff was nice.

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities
I have pets, and i always look at what the cost is. It either says $$$ per pet or $$$ per stay. This one said per stay so i booked it. I get there and he asks how many, i said 2 but the description said per stay (land i showed him)not per pet, he wouldn't budge on that and i had to pay an extra $50 pet fee. This empty hotel at best should have been at max $100/night. It cost us $154/night plus the $50 pet fee. There was visible mud on the floor and in the bathroom there was a used Q-tip on the floor. The bathroom sink was also cracked. The only good thing there was the food from the restaurant.
