The pictures the hotel provided are just catfishing. The hotel is so run down. The inside of our room door had tape on the lock. I had to put the chair in front of it to feel somewhat safe. The beds had questionable stains. The feet on the beds were bending. Thank goodness I took blankets for my baby. The fridge had mold.

The exterior and interiors of the property are poorly maintained. Mold on the shower, towels are like sandpaper. There were no blankets or a comforter on the bed. I was told the bedspread was a duvet. Doors in the room were taped over and painted. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 2 nights in Feb 2025 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Ariel 20 Jan 2025 Liked: Staff & service Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities I don’t ever trust the photos, but these ones are so far off from the actual it’s almost fiction. That said, no bed bugs or pests but all in all not clean or well kept. The owners stated they just bought this place and had plans to upgrade and clean up. For the price point though it’s not good value for the money. The owner is super nice and I do hope they upgrade and clean up. I wouldn’t stay there again unless it was upgraded. ##### Ariel Stayed 2 nights in Jan 2025 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Manuel 6 Nov 2024 Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Nothing , unmaintained property the washroom are sucks ##### Manuel Stayed 3 nights in Nov 2024 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Charlotte 23 Mar 2024 Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities most uncomfortable bed I have ever slept on. unsafe neighborhood run down motel ##### Charlotte Stayed 1 night in Mar 2024 ### 2/10 Terrible #### kevin 30 May 2024 Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities NO REAL HOT WATER, CABLE FROZEN ALL THE TIME, DIRTY LOOKING POOL, BACK OF HOTEL LOOKS LIKE CONDEMED HOTEL, NON WORKING CARS STORED ON PROPERTY ##### kevin Stayed 5 nights in May 2024 ### 6/10 Okay #### Evelyn 8 Apr 2024 Disliked: Amenities, property conditions & facilities I did feel cheated in price for what I paid and what we got.

I got into town early and tried to see if I could get an early check in. They told me I could not (which is fine) and said the room would be ready at 3:30 even though check in was 3. When I came back to check in I grabbed my room keys and proceeded to the room. I walked in and the curtain rods were broken, the room looked awful. I didn’t even want to put my things on the bed. I look in the bed and someone’s hair scrunchy was still in it with a lot of their hair. I was maybe there for a total of 5 minutes before I booked another hotel down the street and left. I have stayed at hostels nicer than this. ##### Daniel Stayed 1 night in Jan 2025 ### 4/10 Poor #### Verified traveller 12 Nov 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service Disliked: Property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Bathroom needs work The room was clean.
