It was ok to stay not so great for entertainment or anything else decided pool. Pictures online and real motel is like day and night deferent. I was so excited when I saw the pictures I thought my kids will enjoy outside. But, when we get there is nothing for kids to enjoy outside. Good thing I can charge my car on the parking. I don’t have to look for outside. It was nice. Thanks for everything.

We had a bad experience with Top Notch Inn!!! Seems like most of reviews are fake!!! Its doesn't really looks like waht you will on the pictures beside pool and hot tab!! Before we ck out i requested 1 hour for to be ready (12 noon instead of 11am) they told me to pay $20 for 1 hour!!!! I stayed in many hotel in my life , this is the first time ever someone asked me to pay for 1 hour!!! They also have very strict rules for many things which you dont like i guarantee!!! After 10pm you cant even talk loud in your own room, bathroom was so small and very stinky by the time we checked in. Never going back again.

Would appreciate grab bars in the shower. Showering was a challenge for safety. Why not have tea bags for us morning tea drinkers? And no hair conditioner. Didn’t know what to do with empty bottles. No place to recycle.
