Most of the power outlets in our room did not work, or the main baseboard heater. Although a space heater was provided. The towel bar was missing in the bathroom and the bed coverlet was badly torn. There wasn't a warm blanket or duvet so we just turned the heat up. But it was very inexpensive

I have stayed here quite a few times. I feel the property has deteriorated. The staff are nice enough. We stayed in a room that had no heat. They provided a space heater. The pool and hot tub have been closed for at least a year? The breakfast is absolute minimal. Location, price, and pet friendly are the only draws to this property. I would spent the extra money to stay at another pet friendly property next time.

It Really is the Best Budget Motel!

This is one of the best values I've ever seen in a motel. Amazing price, comfortable rooms, good location, quaint vibe and it even includes a basic breakfast.

The property and the rooms are not very clean . More care and attention to detail needs to take place. The drains need some attention. The sheets look very old and dingy. Other than that the price was right if u bring your own sheets and blankets, there is hot water, locking door, rooms are warm , fridge and tv

Great stay!

The heat was too high and I wasn't able to turn it down. It was an excellent experience overall though. Bathroom floor was clean just not super clean. Everything else was clean.

There is no pool no hot tub and hasn’t been for a long time. There also was no laundry for 4 out of 5 days of our stay. What they call “breakfast” they put out very little and never restock, was alway there in the first hour of 2 and sometimes there wasn’t cream for coffee or butter for bread?!? Let alone juice or yogurt or coffee I had to ask for more coffee one morning. The room was old, dirty and used bad. The carpets were so old you couldn’t tell the pattern with cigarette burns. garbage behind TV. Holes in the wall and stain on them. No in room coffee or tea. Outside dirty, smells of cigarettes and marijuana. Never cleaned are room had to put /take out are own garbage and ask for more towels. Door security latch broken. Fire extinguishers no good. First two days there was an intermiy banging against the back wall not sure if pipes or other hotel construction all day and night that even with ear plugs woke us up. Pros- there is a kettle, microwave, and fridge, tv, cable, enough channels to find something to watch, beds were comfy (sheets were stained seemed clean) , rooms were warmed even though -20. Mini Shampoo, conditioners provided. Shower pressure not the worse. Free wifi seemed good. The staff was ok but didn’t really seem overly to care Overall when compared to the ones charging $2-5 more a night when I booked not worth it really need the laundry and had wanted to use the hot tub and the noise was ridiculous.
