Good price. Couldn't shower...

So, for the price I thought this is OK. Did have to ask for more TP because there was none. It did snow overnight so we had zero TV the next morning. Then the shower. The knob for hot/cold just spun. We couldn't shower. End of review.

I couldn’t hear the guy who checked us in. And I accidentally left behind a stuffed animal that was important to me and when I called to ask if they found it and would mail it back to be the lady refused and told me I had the wrong place after confirming that it was the hotel we stayed at and they found my stuffed cow in our room.

This is an older, kind of run down property, and there was a bit of a musty smell in the room. However, despite the apparent age and smell the room was impeccably clean. No diet anywhere. Sheets and towels smelled fresh and the bed and pillows seemed modern and was very comfortable. There was shampoo, soap, coffee, a refrigerator, microwave, and strong WiFi. Couldn’t figure out the TV. Parking was so easy right outside of the room. This is a budget room, but had what I needed. The smell was ok when I got used to it but I did keep the window open all night which was the saving grace. I would stay there again, but keep in mind this is just what you need while traveling but not fancy at all.

When we are in the St. James area, we have booked our overnight stays at Finn's. The nightly price is really good and it is right by the highway. The room was clean but could be a little cleaner. The bed is very comfortable. The motel could most certainly use an upgrade but then again for the price, it is a good deal.
