The worst dive ever. Mould on tub Disgusting bathroom ceiling and baseboards. In need of repairs. Smelled of smoke so strongly I gaged all night. Smell of some kind of perfume scent possible to get the bad smell out of the room. Fridge not cleaned out smelled of rot and dirty. Super disappointed for 138 Gross gross gross

The motel is right on the road, with lots of late night and early morning traffic. Had to sleep with the window open as the air conditioner was a unit that only sorta fit into a gap in the window, the pipe kept falling out, and was noisy.

Room was older than we expected but safe and a good location. Smelled a bit musty but aired out easily. Excellent value for waiting for an early morning kayak departure.

Good in general. Room is big. There is a bath tub and plenty of hot water to fill it. Staff is very helpful and understanding of the needs of disabled clients. The few things that can be improved are... Hardwood floors are not even, and can be cleaned more often. Internet speed is slow. Yet. I would recommend this place to travelers for one or two nights.

I don't like writing bad reviews but am really feeling uncomfortable staying here due to the condition of the room. The room has seen better days. The bathtub looks filthy, once the smell of nilodour goes away, the smell of urine is very strong. The fridge was leaking so I asked for some rags to put on the floor. The side of the mattress digs into you when you try to get into bed. There are dents in the walls, a lot of chipped paint and rust. There aren't a lot of cars parked in front. If there are better rooms unoccupied I suggest putting guests in those rooms first. This room is not worth over $200 a night after taxes. Our room is poorly maintained.
Baseboard worn out
Old appliances, water leaking from freezer.

The rooms are clean enough, but they smell of cleaning agents. The odor of the first room was unbearable for me, although some people might not mind the citris smell. The owner was kind enough to move me to another room with less odor. Alas, this room had no deadbolt or even an operable chain on the door (a chair did fit under the door handle--I've never done that before!) and the guests overhead woke me when they walked overhead. Fortunately most guests were quiet but walls and ceilings are thin and the windows rattle. Argh, not good night. The linens are fresh, but the property is a bit run down.

It is what it is. That's not a bad thing.

Service was great. Beds comfy. Was clean enough but it was just that every was old and tired. Photos online are accurate. They are not mis-representing anything.
