Check in is supposed to be at 4pm The office was not open until 530pm. Electrical outlet had broken faceplates and large spider webs in bathroom. Beds are about 40 years old. This place should not be represented by Expedia. A full refund might not compensate.

I am not a fussy person, but have to dig very deep to say anything good about this place. It is very old, run down, definitely not well maintained. No basic amenities such as free coffee, no bath mat, no little shampoos or bar soap, towels and bedding were very dingy. Cheaper than most, but would not pay $50, let alone $100 a night. I would not stay there agin.

It was decent for the price. The staff were polite and very accommodating. The remote for the tv didn’t work, but I’m sure they would have helped us with it if we asked. The air conditioner worked great, they could get newer mattress and pillows.

Seen a lot of not so good reviews for this place. This was not my experience at all. Good clean room for a very affordable price. Person working front desk (owner I believe) was very friendly and let me see the room before booking. We forgot an item at the hotel, owner called us up and even agreed to possibly meet us somewhere in lower mainland to return item. Good hotel at a good price, well run. You can’t ask for much more.

A horrible night stay

First owner gave me a room without clean up from last tenant. After I complained, he gave me another room which has flies/other insects and water that is constantly dripping from the main switch.

Manager was friendly and accommodating. Price was fairly low compare to the rest of hotels in the area during Canada Day long weekend. Parking was available. AC was working ok. Shower and hot water was available. Toilet was leaning and almost falling. Fridge was newer. Front door lock was not working properly, needs a new lock. BEDS WERE OLD AND DEFINITELY NEED UPGRADE! I HAD BED BUG BITES AFTER THAT NIGHT. This place has some potential but needs a major facelift! It is extremely ran down!

If you are looking for an affordable place to stop for the night, this is perfect. We will be back for a place ti stay when passing through. The reviews had us worried but turned out to be way overblown. The road runner is aged and basic, but rather than blowing $100+ for a place to sleep , for $50 it has everything you need. Just keep your expectations in check and ignore all the other comments.
