Ben linens were disgusting, pillows were yellow and pubic hairs were all over the sheets, clearly hadn’t been washed in a long time. No staff was present when we came back to the room after initially checking in, no one to air any grievances to, so we left the key and walked out and returned the hour and a half drive back to the City at the end of a very laborious day. Even more ridiculous, this company has refused to refund my initial night’s hotel stay. The reservation was 2 nights and was given back only the second night, with no good reason, effectively stealing from me and now forcing me to go to Visa to resolve this. So much for being a “VIP” member…..what an absolute joke.

Mostly fine, but the walls are paper thin and the neighbours kept us up until the wee hours of the morning. The manager apologized and did his best to solve the problem.

If you like trains then you would like this place. Hotel is somewhat run down but is clean. Needs some work but no other place to stay in Evansburg that I would stay in.

Clean, basic roadside motel.

Basic roadside motel, effective for an overnighter. Looks to have been recently updated, very clean and kitchenette had what I need with the exception of a wash cloth and drying towel. Close to highway so traffic noise was high - ear plugs for the quiet sleeper.

This motel didn't have deadbolts on the doors just handle locks. While they updated them, it appear that they had just laid cheap laminent overtop of carpet. The sheets looked stained - just gross. There is also train noise nearby.

Nothing was replaced after 1st night stay....meaning coffee items, etc. There was a hand written message on the wall by the door "not to push the button in on the knob as it locks when you close it"...not true and really ?? Having said this the price was retro 1990's and the dudes in the office were great. I would stay there again for the price...knowing what to expect.
