Unlike many other motels that I have stayed at over the last six weeks all within the same price range this one was in very poor condition whereas the other ones were all kept up quite well clean new furniture or new rugs, painted walls, not infested with mosquitoes, etc.

No AC, stores are 50+km either way from the location, dead bugs on toliet and in the tub. Unless you absolutely need a place to stay, keep driving. Half eaten loaf of bread and jar of peanut butter for a "complimentary breakfast" nightmare.

Lovely lakeview. No AC, but that was okay as it was cool. Bathroom was clean. Beds were somewhat comfy. Lots of mosquitoes, but with it being right next to a lake, that is to be expected.

This could be a stunning location. They just need to paint the place, cut the lawn, put some firewood out. The location was comment and easily to get to. It could be a resort but the only staff I saw was watching TV. IThe room was clean and adequate. Too bad I could have been a great visit.

Room was decorated by dead mosquitoes on the wall. No AC, so a fan was provided with open windows, which would be fine if there wasnt a rip in the screen... Woke up with bite all on my face. Awful.
