8/10 Very good

The location was great. Staff were very friendly and helpful. Our room was good but the decor is tired and needs uplifting. So why not 5 out of 5 across the board? The carpets in the common areas and on the stairs were tired and dirty. I expected slightly more given the high room rate cost. However, I would stay again.

Verified review

6/10 Good

Great location, large room, quiet location, comfortable beds, great pillows and nice sheets. The motel seems very dated and in need of some upgrades. My biggest reason for the lower rating is due to value for the price. We paid over $500 for one night - for this hotel. Maybe not fair evaluation, as all properties were expensive for Labour Day weekend. Bump my rating to a 3. Thx

Pretty alright hotel. The wifi is very patchy and the walls are thin so if you’re a light sleeper you might want to bring some earplugs. Overall, the location is great and the staff are friendly/helpful.
