Room was clean, but had a very bad musty smell. They are doing work dumpster in in parking lot. New flooring, new fridges new bedding, but man that smell. Also don’t like that I don’t have control of the air-conditioning. I was very hot through the night. They must control it and I do hate motels that don’t have cable TV. That’s stupid Rocco.

A few things needed fixing or updating. Beds clean and comfy though. What we needed for one night on road trip
Sadly it doesn't get much worse... Rooms in disrepair and smelly with humidity/mould, holes i the walls. My room had no AC and Wifi did not work. The door handle lock was open on one side, still worked but it does not inspire confidence. I can see the owners making efforts to renovate this old establishment, but your standards would have to be extremely low to be satisfied at any price! I had low expectations to start with because it was the cheapest place I could find in town but still left without a refund.
Definitely would not recommend. Was a last minute decision travelling across Canada. Looked at the pics and reviews and just wanted a decent clean comfortable bed and clean room/washeoom. I chose the queen bed, non refundable and if it wasn’t so exhausted when I arrived and fearful of being a danger on the road I would have left and kept driving. What you see in the pictures is NOT what you get.
We could easily hear the people in the next room. The TV didn't work very well. There was no coffee maker. The shower took a while for the water to get warm. Hotel next to train tracks. It wasn't worth the price even at a discount.
