It was all i could find at the time.

The rooms are older. The floor creaks so much that one can hear other occupants in other rooms walk around. Bathroom is very very small, comparable to a cruise ship small. The lady in the office was curt in her answers.

Manager was very friendly and had a good sense of humor. Even though the room was very small and very close to other rooms, there was no real noise. They were sold out, so all of the rooms were full, but I was not bothered by other guests. I enjoyed my stay!

Budget Hotel, don’t expect too much. Room was ok, small bathroom was fine. A little stain on the carpet and arm of the chair. TV was ok, A/C worked, though had to figure it out. Temp was in C not F. It is right off the main road, so a fair bit of traffic noise. I had noise cancelling earbuds I wore overnight, which were great for not being bothered by the noise outside. The man who checked me in was professional, courteous and friendly. There was a kitty in the office, but she was very cautious and didn’t want to be touched by anyone. She was not threatening or anything, just clearly curious about what was going on.

Worst motel ever

Had I not paid in advance we would have left. Not exaggerating but I would have preferred sleeping in my ca. this motel should be off your list as this property should be condemned. Shame on you for not knowing this.
Photos on your site are very deceptive. Third photo shows you can take a corner of the carpet and rip it up.
