The only positive about this property was that we could bring our pets. The property was filled with unsavory characters and felt unsafe. There was indoor upholstered furniture soaking in the rain on the outdoor seating areas and futon soaking in the rain by the front office. There were leaves everywhere that kept blowing in the door to our room. We couldn't get the leaves out because there was a lip at the entryway. The room was musty. The bathroom fan didn't work and you could see a patch job on the drywall which was probably from mold. There was no screen on the window. The sheets were all stained and thin. There was no mattress cover so you could see the mattress through the sheet. The pillows were all feather and smelled like food. The box springs were also stained and dinged up. The roof is worn. There was a gutter coming off the roof shooting rain onto a parked customer car. I paid $300 for 2 nights of horror.

The staff were terrible. Only one set of towels was provided. The power outlet was inconveniently located. There was no chair in the room, and when I asked for one, the staff brought an old chair that had been left outside for a long time and didn’t even bother to clean it.

Very basic budget hotel. I stayed across the road a couple days earlier at a different budget hotel similar price and it felt much better. This room was dated and the furniture felt like things you see at a garage sale from someone's grandma. Little things like no toilet paper roll holder. Heat didn't work well. I left as soon as i woke up at 4 am

This was my second stay at this property. They have renovated the rooms nicely since my last visit. My room was very clean. For the budget traveler this is a reasonable choice for an overnight stay. Pros: Easy access to shopping and dining. Close to Hwy 17. Friendly. Drive-up parking. Cons: Wifi did not work well. A bit noisy. Slight dank smell in room.

This place is incredibly run down. The mattresses are very old and practically just springs, the walls are dirty, the furniture is unsteady/falling apart, and it smells of years of cigarette smoke. Worked as a cheap place out of necessity (everywhere else was sold out or exorbitantly high) but felt gross. There was dirt and hair in the sheets (slept fully clothed wrapped in own blanket that is getting deep cleaned), mold in the bathroom, and a layer of grime. The door looked like it had been kicked in a few times before and did not latch well. And the microwave was both moldy and rusted. Definitely not worth the over $100 charged per night. I would honestly only pay $40 a night for a place so dismal and even then only if nothing else can be gotten.

Clen room but very, very basic. Only one towel for two of us.Had to remind the person 3 times to bring another towel. The old door lock was difficult to unlock. A slight kick helped to get the door open. No electric plug in the washroom and no bedside lamp.

Aside from squeaky beds and paper-thin walls where we could hear people puking their guts our before 10PM with others screaming and arguing on either side of us, there was a very gross shower curtain with mould going 1/3 up from the bottom. When I did shower the water never warmed up. The floors were ice cold despite being 18 degrees celsius outside. The air conditioner sounded like a diesel bus right next to our heads which we put on only to drown out the noise.
