The host was very friendly , nice and easy to deal with. The property location is easy to find and haze the parking right in front of the door. Checking in was easy-peasy as Sam can handle it oven if he is not on the premises.

Comfy beds and a relatively quiet location. Very clean but needs a new tub/shower as the finish is very worn. I will stay here again on my next trip across Canada.

An OK place when you just need a bed for the night

The place is really in need of renovations but it was an ok place to stay for a night when passing through. Really appreciated that they were able to provide a very late checkin (almost 2:00 am). Beds were comfortable.

Its a good nights stay. But if you are picky about how new you want your space this may not be it for you. Pet friendly and accommodated us after arriving past midnight.
