it was a clean and nice motel

The room was very cool at all times there was no thermostat in the room. It was also -26 outside so that might have something to do with the temperature in the room and once you were in the bed it was good sleeping.

At our overnight stay within the Gables Inn we enjoyed our overall stay. The rooms were newly updated (we had 2) the beds were comfortable and there was lots of room for activites indoors. The only downfall with the Gables inn is that it’s broadcasted their is a pool for swimming and to our surprise when we arrived it looked like the pool had been closed for many years and instead built a small jungle gym next to it meaning it should have been removed from the ad. The lady working the front desk was friendly and answered any questions we had.
