One of the few hotels in this rating which has an indoor swimming pool with hot-tub etc. Breakfast is reasonably substancial as well, all included in the price. Found out the day after checkin that room-cleaning is every other day (according to 1 front-desk staff) or only essential-cleaning everyday & full-cleaning every other day!? None of these were mentioned in Expedia's booking. Anyway, the hotel staff didn't seem to know for sure.

This place is so rundown! The carpeting is so old there are cigarette burns in it. Peeling wallpaper. There is a pool and hot tub but no elevator, a long walk and stairs to get to it. The rooms, sheets and towels were clean and staff was friendly, helpful and responsive.

Hotel did not honor the rate quoted by Expedia and that I had confirmation of. Very old and felt dirty in rooms , hallways and building, only thing that looked modern and updated was lobby, very deceiving. Would not recommend

The only criticism I have is the outside could use a face lift and clean the windows outside. I thought it was foggy when I looked out the first morning but it was the dirty window.

Love the old school hotels as they have fridges that you can use, that aren’t stuffed with overpriced beverages. And they have a microwave in the room. Breakfast was good; lots to choose from and very friendly service staff. Great price!

We were charged an extra $50 for having a birthday party at the room. I'm not sure if staff just pocketed it but I didn't get a receipt reflecting the change. Also, the stairs were an issue as I have a knee problem. Came home swollen and sore as you folks do not have an elevator. Not sure how this passes exability by laws here in nova scotia!

The management of this property was very unkind and selfish. There was a mix up with our room and instead of trying to accommodate and work the problem out, he refused good service and would not make any changes or refunds to accommodate our family. The front staff Stephanie and Simi were very kind and helpful and went out of their way to attempt to make our stay acceptable.

Dear Crystal,Thank you for sharing your experience with us. We sincerely apologize for any inconvenience or frustration you encountered during your recent stay.We genuinely regret any mix-up with your room and understand how important it is for accommodations to meet your family's needs. As you may understand, our room occupancy policies are set to ensure the safety and comfort of our guests. However, we appreciate your understanding as we accommodated your family of five by providing two queen beds and a cot, at no additional charge. We're grateful for your acknowledgment of Stephanie and Simi's efforts to assist you during your stay. It's important to note that while we strive to accommodate all guest requests, our ability to provide complimentary rooms is subject to availability, especially during peak periods. As the hotel was operating at high occupancy during your stay, offering an additional complimentary room was unfortunately not feasible. We trust you understand that our priority is to ensure all our guests have a comfortable and enjoyable stay.Please know that we take your feedback seriously and will use it as an opportunity to review our procedures and improve our service delivery. We would also like to extend a sincere apology for any inconvenience caused and assure you that we will do everything within our power to prevent similar situations from occurring in the future.If there is anything further we can do to address your concerns or if you would like to discuss your experience in more detail, please do not hesitate to contact us directly.

We were given a room with two doubles instead of two queens. Even though I checked in online, they said that didn't really count so I had to do it again. The room itself was adequate, the pool wasn't very well-kept, most of the arcade games were broken, and they couldn't give me change at the front desk. Breakfast was good though.

Ever since Travelodge underwent new management the hotel has gone downhill. I stayed at this hotel everytime I traveled for business. I will no longer stay there. The hotel is dirty, staff are rude. Prices are extremely high with no business rate for my company any longer and they charge a deposit even though Im a long time customer. Extremely dissatified.
