Not so affordable for the level of room

Been staying here for the last 8 years during our road trip to the north. It’s a convenient location, usually well priced, has a patio and is pet friendly. However interior and maintenance continues to worsen, needs for repair - and now the price has gone up! Next trip might consider paying another 15 dollars and stay somewhere with a little more amenities and comfortable interior.

The key to the room did not work and the owner guy had troubles getting us in. The patio sliding doors did not lock and the owner expected us to know to put a board in the door to stop it from sliding. The office does not open until 9 so if you need anything no help.

Nice View

Hotel is in desperate need of a renovation but that is reflected in their pricing. Would stay again based on their rates. Beware, the rooms have no air conditioning and some noise transfer between rooms. Staff were very helpfull replacing my tv that wasn't working. Staff were friendly

They allow smoking outside front doors of the units and on the balconies. Hot evening and I had to close the windows as both neighbours smoked and one hacked up a lung all night. Comes with coffeemaker but no cups or glasses.
