It was good and what we expected for a motor inn. Room amenities were fine - appreciated small fridge. Bed was comfortable but missing top sheet. No onsite breakfast but nearby Doris’s diner attached to gas station was a good hearty breakfast.

Large room but tiny bathroom with the sink outside. Although room was generally clean there were places where the cleaning had been missed and dust existed such as on the lower shelves of both nightstands. The flooring had small gaps here and there in floor boards. No ceiling light and the light provided by the 2 bedside lamps was barely adequate at best.
The bathroom sink was very, very slow to drain. The bathtub and showerhead were in desperate need of replacement as they had permanent discolouring and rust spots.
Internet was generally on the slow side.
This was supposed to be a deluxe room, although decent, it really didn't live up to that billing.
In the middle of being updated. Our suite was brand new and very nice. Comfortable beds. Great service. Good price. Also, rave to the Cosmos Pizza restaurant on site. Loved it and super convenient.

Although the room was newlybrenovatedcand clean the customer service was poor. There was no top sheet on our bed and when I asked they simply handed me one rather than making the bed. We stayed 3 nights and no one empty our garbage or replenished coffee, shower needs or linens.

The beds were so hard we woke up with sore backs, under the beds weren’t swept and when we left the next day it had snowed but no snow was cleared from the walk way or stairs we had to use
Stayed for 5 nights. The positives: Hot water supply was good and the linens (bedding towels) were clean and smelled good. The room was clean on arrival. The negatives: The mattress was unbelievably hard, my room was not cleaned once in 5 days (bedding, garbages emptied, new towels, etc), and the television was tiny for the room size. Beyond those things it was just OK. I paid for an updated (luxury lol) room and what I got was still pretty old and tired (ie. the sofa's fabric was torn). I've stayed in a couple of worse motels but this was definitely in the bottom 25% of places I've stayed.
Clean, modern washroom. Excellent towels. Good quality toilet paper (hey, it matters).
Clean comfy beds.
Attached restaurant was wonderful. We even got cake.

Was ok. Did the job. Pull out bed was horrible. Staff were good
Very unpleasant experience, pictures of property must be from one set up room. Room at best was nasty. Dirty on every level. No other rooms available in the area. Would never recommend or stay here again. I don’t write bad reviews and like to give something positive but sorry not this time.
