There was fecal and blood stains in both beds in our room. The sink was clogged, there was hair everywhere and the tv had been burnt with a lighter. Would not recommend, not to mention the front desk area looks like a teenagers bedroom.

Exactly what we wanted from a Niagara motel. Affordable, within walking distance of the Falls, with several food/drink options nearby. The heart-shaped jacuzzi in the room was also appreciated.

When I made the reservation online, it looked like a nice place for a reasonable rate. When I arrived, I discovered that it was not only dirty, but that on top of our hotel rate, my friend and I were each getting charged an additional charge for our cars to be there overnight. I went to the office on the morning I left to ask for change for American money to tip the housekeepers, and he shorted me on the conversion rate. The next time I come to that area, I will be choosing a slightly pricier Hotel, that I'm sure will be cheaper in the long run.

The rooms were old, out dated. Most of the tv channels didn't work, it was an antenna. The mattress cover had a blood stain on it. Mentioned it to the housekeeping and they don't do anything about it. The shower head a lot of calcium buildup, it was not very clean. They only left 1 roll of toilet paper. And it smelled really musty. We had to put our own air freshener in the AC.

This is a classic case of you get what you pay for. The room was clean enough except for the stains on the comforter and a few small holes in the sheets. The toilet didn’t flush properly. We had to get someone to come get the tv working. There were only 2 electrical outlets and one was a power strip screwed to the wall. There was excess tv cable just piled up in the closet area. The decor and furniture (including the bed) hasn’t been updated since the mid 80s but it has a relatively new floor. There was no phone to call the front desk. There is a $15 fee for guest parking, which is limited. Tv channels were limited. On the plus side check in was super easy and the jacuzzi was quite nice. The rooms are also soundproof which was very nice. We never heard any noise outside. It’s conveniently located close to most major attractions and restaurants, many within short walking distance. They also had a nice looking pool but we didn’t get in this time. If you’re looking for a cheap getaway and don’t plan to spend much time in the room it would suffice. But if you’re looking for somewhere with amenities you might want to look elsewhere
