I gave this a 3/5 mostly because this isn't the worst place i have ever stayed. I booked this place driving back from Alberta to Ontario, it was cheap and the only thing available at the time. Its kind of the side of the road motel you could expect

We did not actually stay the night as we requested to see the room prior to registering. The hallway had a stale smell and the room was extremely small as the bed took up most of it. The parking was extremely difficult to navigate as it was narrow and was extremely sloped. Check-in was through a convenience store as well. As for cleanliness we did not look any further after seeing how small the room was.

Paintwork in room 21 was grubby, it needed cleaning. The carpet was dirty and stained. There was a fitting on the bath top that was was black. Wall paper was hanging off the wall. No tissues despite there being a holder and we were told they had none, although they owned a convenience store on site. Bed coverlets were worn and tired. It was very much overpriced for the quality of accommodation. It needed a complete renovation. On reflection, it was worth only one star

This was a very dingy location. You had to go in the convenience store to check in and the service was not great. We were given 2 keys, one for the outside door and one for the room. They did not work that well Most motels have upgraded to a keyless entry.only one bed which we knew but it was a double, not a queen. Since it was my daughter and I staying here did not feel that safe

I liked the location, the price was good, but the rooms were dirty especially the floors were sticky, and the bedding was very old looking. We will stay somewhere else next time unless they improve the cleaning and condition of the room and bedding.
