We stayed in a two bedroom unit No a/c in the main room. Foul odour in bathroom. Major update needed throughout motel. Our sleep, however, was wonderful. The motel was quiet and staff were helpful and pleasant.

This property is terrible. The only reason I booked here was because it was close to where I needed to be, and everything else close by was booked. Upon walking in the carpet was dirty and it smells like cigarettes and wet dog. The person checking us in was nice enough. The room - at first we thought it smelled ok, however discovered it was due to a plug-in air freshener, which I unplugged because after a few minutes it was giving me a headache. After less than five minutes of it being unplugged I plugged it back in because the smell of the room was horrible, again cigarettes and wet dog. Thankfully we left shortly after and only came back to sleep. Left in the morning before the office was open as we couldn't wait to get out of there.

I booked this Motel for four nights. I checked in and attended my room. It was not satisfactory. Everything is dated and old. The bed linens were “well used”. Walls and ceiling were peeling, ect. Overall it was unsatisfactory, so after a minute and thirty seconds I notify the front desk that the room and motel were not to my liking and I will be staying elsewhere. They charged me for an overnight stay. Horrible place. Horrible policy. I do not recommend.

The property is very old. I believe it was a former apartment building that they turned into a motel which they have put very little money into unfortunately. If you just need a place to rest your head then this place is okay. Certainly priced higher than it should be. The whole property needs a face lift. Missing some of the amenities offered.. Coffee no Coffee maker, missing light bulbs, loose bathroom fixtures. I could go on but will put it plainly the place really needs a lot of work... Like I said, if you're looking for a place to rest your head, then this place will do, but it's far over priced for that. Spend the extra and go somewhere else you'll be glad you did.They say live and learn .... I did lol
