We needed overnight lodging but chose not stay at the property at arrival. The light weight looking exterior motel doors made the property not look safe. The property appeared to serve as a rental complex judging by the patio furniture outside the doors. I didn’t check in, so I’m unfamiliar with the rooms interior.

Price convenience I had to attend a meeting and Chatham is a five hour drive from home. I need a motel where I could drive down Saturday afternoon, grab a meal at a nearby restaurant, sleep a few hours and get to the meeting on time. There is nothing fancy here - perfect! Mini fridge, microwave, which I did not need. No coffee maker but usual coffee shops in the area

The guy who attended us was very rude with unnecessary comment he made. We feel weren’t welcomed to this property. When checking in there is a bell door that is hidden and hard to see. He saw us and give an bad attitude saying like don’t you see the door bell??? Like how about putting the door bell outside the door not hide .

The property has people living there permanently. People that are, for lack of a better way of saying this, less desirable. When we pulled back the sheets to see the cleanliness, there was evidence of bed bugs on the mattress -- small black dots in the piping of the mattress. Management would not authorize a refund. Expedia offered a $25 credit. There were no other rooms available in Chatham so we drove to Windsor and slept there for the night. Don't go unless you want to take hitchhikers along.

there should be a reason for the concern .6 motels within half kilometre. .no incident in this motel for the last 5 years plus every room window and door and the entire parking lot are covered by high-resolution cameras installed by professional company .
