It is an old motel. Taps did not work properly. Chipped sink and tub. Lights flickered constantly after being on for awhile fridge solidity froze the water bottles . Room was clean but overwhelming Lysol smell even on second day. Restaurant good food but pricey.

Yes, the bathroom is more or less the size of a closet. And does it really matter? It was clean and on a budget holiday I’m spending most of my time off doing things, not hanging around in the room. The attached restaurant WHIFS is lively and filled with happy families and trains and dinosaurs. What more can you ask for?😎

Hotel was good. Bed & pillows good. The place is a little outdated. Could use new carpeting as it is dirty. Check-in was good. Small room, but for the price good. Grounds are clean.

Right on the highway to the Tyrell museum. Busy road even at night. Thin walls make it a noisy sleep. Floors are definitely not level or solid but they keep it very clean.

The stay was ok. It was what I expected for for the price. It wasn’t the cleanest or the neatest but it was enough for 2 nights. My problem is they haven’t refunded me my $100 deposit. It’s hard to get them on the phone, and I manage to get a hold of someone this morning. After finding out what my concern was, he told me to call later then hung up. I called back to confirm when is the right time, he said “call later i’m busy”. When pressed for more info on “when?”, the guy on the other line states “I’m busy today, call later, maybe tomorrow” then hung up the phone again, so rude. I don’t owe your establishment anything, I’m getting my deposit which i paid for in full. I checked out on the 24th.
