We were early to book in and we were adamantly told check in was 3 p.m. and not before unless we paid an extra day. We mentioned we had to change our clothes to go to a wedding in one hour however the answer was still NO. Totally inconsiderate to our needs. So we had to change our clothes in the car. One of our two rooms was so smelly (foul odour) we had to insist to be moved to another unit. This took some hard balling but finally they conceded and we were allowed to move. We have all agreed (party of four) that we will never utilize their services again. The price was fair, bedding was crisp and clean as were the towels.

Was denied early entry to change for a wedding out of town. Just wanted to drop off bags, change and be gone. We didn’t arrive to sleep to well after midnight. When we arrived at 11:30 parking lot was empty. He wanted to charge an extra day. Rooms has a musty smell.

Nice little property and very well kept outdoors. Room was renovated and very nice but there was a lot of dust and spider webs all over the baseboards, power bar outlet, although the rest of the room seemed very clean. Pillows are way too thin and matresses not very comfortable. All that being said, for the low price we paid, it was quite acceptable.

The room was very clean and had enough space. We were 3 in the room and that made it a bit stuffy for the 2 days we were there. Ventilation is not the best, humidity build up was our only concern with an extended stay! The facility was well maintained and had lot of flower everywhere. Very beautiful. Walking distance to food, drink and pharmacy all right there. We would stay there again!

Not a bad place to stay when driving through Pembroke. Room some dampness to it which was not great, and the thermostat for the heat didn't seem to work. It was fairly clean and the beds were comfortable.

The price was the first thing that attracted me to this property, the reviews were positive so I went ahead and booked. Glad I did, the reviews were spot on. The bed is comfortable and the room is well appointed. I would come again.

An extra blanket in the room would have been good. A few shelves in the bathroom would be helpful. Over all, a nice motel.

Don’t stay here.

Very very dirty. Almost cancelled after checking in but I was too tired. Ant traps all over the room. Dirty baseboards. Extremely hard bed. Pillows that felt like they were 20 years old (thankfully I had my own). Definitely not worth the $99 I paid for the night.

The room we were in needs painting and a deep clean. Ashtrays in front of every room was not at all attractive. The kitchenette didn't have pots, pans etc needed to prepare a meal. The one frying pan available was rusty and unusable. I will not return.
