The room was dirty which was brought to the attention of the staff with no comment. We cleaned our room and requested clean linens and towels. There was no continental breakfast as advertised on website. Convenient location.

This motel was ok for a night. Walking distance from a Subway sandwiches, inside a gas station. Had issues with wifi and the tv would only work for live tv, cause it would not identify the wifi....front desk guy was pleasant and willing to help when we needed him.shower head was awesome, never seen one that sprayed you from so many angles..good for back pain.

Disliked: Amenities
I was disappointed with this property. The advertising photo and description show an attractive cottage with a kitchen. I bought groceries so that I could prepare a meal. Instead, we were registered in a bare bones motel room with no cooking facilities. I found the odour of cleaning agents to be overwhelming. There were ashtrays with stale cigarette butts outside the room door, and individuals smoking on a deck adjacent to the office.

Mould in door and back wall and around shower and shower curtain. Stove was filthy, oven was filthy, mouse droppings in cupboard.fridge froze everything, carpet filthy, bar b que and utensils were filthy windows and window sills filthy with dead flies and fly droppings. Window coverings difficult and some didnt work. I have pictures to prove the above. I stayed in a 2 bedroom cottage, do not sure about the rest of the facility.

If you are into rooms that don’t have crumbs on the floor, bedsheets that don’t have stains, blinds that don’t have years of dust caked on them, a couch that isn’t falling apart (and without cigarette burns), towels without holes, a range that doesn’t have food all over it and down the adjacent wall, and more than one of each piece of dish wear and cutlery (for a two-bedroom cabin), don’t stay here.
