Nice quiet a accommodations for travellers. Remember to bring hangers and a clock/radio as nine were in my room. A small chest of drawers would be a nice addition to the room. I stayed in #24.

Room was in bad shape, not dirty just…bad shape. Heater was noisy and out of control, too hot or too cold. The mattress was old, not recommended for a good rest night.

The bed had a broken leg, which created a slope that made it uncomfortable for sleeping. Also, the motel does not seem to like people to book through Expedia, as it charges a high deposit for anyone using online booking agents. On the plus side, the motel is conveniently close to local eating establishments (a short walk) and the airport (requiring only a 20-minute drive).

Not a lot of staff presence, there was a fight in the middle of the night and no staff around. There was 1-2 rooms where there were many people in an out over the night, we felt there were possibly drug purchases happening.

It is a basic motel, well kept, helpful owners/staff, great location, a bit pricy but comparatively, not too so exorbitant.

I did not like anything the place is run down. I’m sorry the bed was comfortable. The place was full I thing people live there all year long , there was a car parked in front of my door with engine running when I got there after 3:00 . When I went out at 5:00 for supper it was still there . When I got back close to 9:00 it was still there with engine running and lights on that flash on my door and light coming through the side of the door . Looked after 11:00 it was still there . I did not leave anything in my car .I will never go back with a dump.

Cleaning
I noticed in the bathroom the toilet tissue holder was dusty/dirty on the top edge, so I ran my finger along the top of the baseboard heater and then along the top of the bathroom mirror. The heater was dirty, the top edge of the mirror very dirty

This place was filthy dirty, there was stains in the towels, bed spread, the ceiling fan was disgusting and the lamps where stained badly. Additionally, there was a physical fight one night, and another night there was an extreme amount of banging and loud noise all night long. I was extremely disappointed and honestly felt like this place was unsafe. If i had not had, my companion with me..i would have left the motel and found other accommodation.

Older, tired motel. Was afraid to take the car to go out to dinner because I was afraid I would need to park on the street since the parking lot is small and crowded.

Check-in staff was nice and also understanding of the situation when we requested to be refunded after noticing that the area and people around the motel was unsafe/sketchy, in our opinion. It looked like a bordel honeslty. Travelling with a 5 year-old we did not want to take risks as there was a lot of activity just in the parking lot, in broad daylight. We didn't even make it to the room. Would not recommended.

This is by far the worst motel experience of my hole life. The place is dirty, destroyed and there is noisy welfare guess bordering just in front of the stairs. Also, there is just 1 emergency exit for the second floor, which is illegal in case of fire. This place should be closed.

Check in was easy. Lots of parking available. Quiet after 11 policy. It did have a smokey smell in the non smoking room. Comfortable beds and pillows. Soft blankets.It was a clean motel with A/C that was the perfect spot for a 1 night stay during our nova scotia road trip.

My stay was 15 minutes to check the room which had stains on all upholstery and bedding, leaking faucet and smell of mold. Asked for a refund because the place is very clearly run down and housing homeless people. I was told I could only get a partial refund because I had moved the bed sheets. Place should not be recommended by booking photo 3rd party. If it is recommended to you, skip it. DO NOT BOOK HERE.

Homeless people live in this "motel"! Police came and arrested a resident homeless person and later that night another resident of the place started a fire and we had to evacuate at 2 am. Police told me this place is the worst hotel/motel in the entire city and area!! I can't believe Expedia lists it on their site!!!!
