Worst stay ever

First off, the check in time said 2pm. We got there at 2:05 pm and what looked to be the owner said that check in was at 3pm and that we would have to pay $40 dollars for an early check in. I told him im not paying $40 as the app says 2pm check in and then he saod okay, $20 dollars for early check in. I then priceeded to tell him I would not be paying him anything for an early check in fee and you could tell he was visibly upset and said fine. He then charged me $20 dollars for a deposit fee which he said would be returned to me at checkout which never was. I didnt have high hopes for that to be returned but we were in a pinch. The hotel itself was infested with hookers and people in and out of the rooms all hours of the night. To top it off, the fire alarm in our room just randomly started going off at 1:27am. I had to get on the chair to disconnect it. Worst hotel we have ever stayed in. Definitely beware as to I wouldnt want anyone to have the same experience that we had.

HORRIBLE experience!

HORRIBLE experience! I made a reservation almost 3 weeks ago and when I arrived to check in they told me they were overbooked and could not honor my reservation. There are so many other better motels in the area for the same price. “Management” was not helpful.

Room needed paint, repairs, phone, microwave, cleaning, no toilet paper holder, killed 2 bugs. It was supposed to be non smoking, but it smelled like smoke. You can hear planes landing into Ontario Airport, would not recommend.
