Reception was friendly and bed was good. Railway behind motel sucks. Place is dated, dirty, light and fan in bathroom didn’t work. Place also smells musky. Cheap room and done the job for one night travelling alone. My wife would never have stayed there.

A cheap place to stay but not clean.

This motel or inn could use a complete cleaning. Walls dirty, front door dirty, the main window was covered up by drywall. Found smoke alarm was removed from the wall, no batteries and the hole is exposure. 3 nights and the beds were never made.

Staff was good, but property was a hell. Room smells like mold & dust. Washroom was worse than a public toilet. Whole room was disaster and falling apart, dirty walls, floor was stinky and greasy.towels and sheets were yellow and black stains on it. I suggest to don't even go close to this place until they do a renovation.
