Had a good night's sleep and breakfast before continuing on our journey. Note that the hotel is a little tricky to find as it's off the main road, so use your Google or other navigator.

Throwback to the 70’s.

If you like sitting in your parents living room from 1979 then this is your place. Outdated is an understatement. There was more caulk holding the bathroom together than there was bathroom to hold together.

Stay was ok

The hotel was not up to standard. Need to do better cleaning carpet & bathroom. Also the big thing for me was the distance to River City Sportcomplex. On your website, you mentioned 4.2 miles, it was over 10 miles...make the correction as it was the only reason i booked this place.
