The staff was wonderful, they let us check in early, helped us with the tv , the property is older , needs upgrades One thing for sure the fan in bathroom works with the light on but during the night getting up using bathroom disturbs others sleeping that should be on its own switch I think with extension cords being used differently the electrical be a priority. The view is beautiful the staff wonderful , we would stay again

Friendly staff

The staff were extra friendly. This was our second time staying there. When we checked in the owner was not in the office. She came to our room the next day to welcome us back. Today as we were getting ready to leave she csme to our room to wish us a safe trip The room was large and had a great view of Kelly's Mountain. Evrn though you are beside a main busy highway, you didn't hear any traffic noise.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities
Kelly's View Motel was overall clean, conveniently located close to the highway, quiet, and had helpful, friendly staff. My only issue was that my family was placed at the end unit right beside the picnic bench where smoking (cigarettes and cannibis) was allowed. Usually the end unit is more favourable as it should be more quiet with one less set of neighbours. However, because the smoking area was right in front and slightly right of our unit, we were constantly bombarded with cigarette smoke and cannibis. We had to keep our windows closed to prevent the smells from entering our unit. We also couldn't enjoy watching the beautiful sunset that could be seen opposite Kelly's View Motel (hence the name) because of the polluted air (our issue as they can't prevent people from smoking unless they specificially set rigid rules of no smoking on their external property). If the picnic table/smoking area had been placed further away from the motel units (at least the end unit), I would have rated the property 4/5 instead of 3/5.
