Rented several rooms for 3 & 4 days in a row and found the accommodation to be inconsistent; 2 out of 3 rooms didn’t have a working bathroom fan just a cover as if there was a fan and A/C was iffy in all but 1 room. I found the communication from the staff to be frustrating; I was charged an additional $136.40 but none of the staff were able to explain why. I made sure to declare my pet several times including on the sign in paper and online but fear I was charged their didn’t declare pet fee which is frustrating as I am always upfront about my pet and made sure he was only in 1 room. I found the front desk new hire to be helpful both at check-in and gracious while trying to help with the TV in 1 room. The maintenance man who scared away some creepy locals was also helpful in trying to explain the extra charge and helping me check back into our 2nd reservation. The area is a drive or 15 minute walk to other amenities. Other than the 2 scary locals wanting cigarette butts and yelling crazy slogans our stay was quiet and we enjoyed the rooms. Smokers can smoke outside the room; weed smokers can use the patio area which is nicely decorated. I feel they are trying their best to renovate and make manageable updates to the property. 2 out of 3 rooms found their beds to be comfortable but wished for different pillows. Housekeeping was wonderful; we made sure to tip well and would have tipped the maintenance guy for all his bravery had we seen him before we left. Overall decent.

The tub had what looked like black mould around the caulking. There was no nonslip mat for the tub. My husband & I both slipped not not hurt. Water temperature fluctuates significantly from med, hot cold would not stay there again.

The property from the outside was a little rough. The kids play center had a sign (Do not use). The swimming pool did not have water and hasn’t been used in a while.
The rooms were clean and just what we needed. I would stay here again if needed.

Beautiful space, my only issue was i saw a bug in the washroom at 5 AM ..a roach to be exact, it was a single one.
Otherwise, i enjoyed this space, it was very clean and location was excellent. The beds and rooms were very comfortable too.

It was ok, sofa / sofa bed was very old and “finish” was crumbling. But otherwise, the place is old but comfortable.

Not kid friendly. No water in the pool, playground equipment broken. Beds were sagging in the middle. It looked clean walking in the door, but microwave was dirty and had stuff in it from a previous person. You get what you pay for.

Love that it had a fenced area for the dog and it was a very nice area to be in, one thing they should work on is cleaning the floors, i went to wipe something up on the floor and the whole napkin was brown from all the dirt muck, floors should be cleaned after every guest vists & they were not cleaned for a while

The swimming pool was closed. It was 40 degrees outside and we were a group of 6 on our Harley’s. The only reason we booked this motel was an open swimming pool was advertised!
