While the room looked very clean, the window was cracked and none of the wall lights worked. Also the en-suite was exceptionally small. But main problem was lack of any staff at all on the premises, so any queries had to be by phone to some other location, even though a sign in the footer said the desk was manned to 9pm.

When entering the building all I could smell was cigarette smoke, my wife said it smelt of fart. Everything in the room was sticky, the shower curtain was mouldy, and the walls were damaged. Outside was the sound of people smoking, fighting and coughing up lung. We were there 10 minutes before we booked a new hotel. We couldn’t stay it didn’t feel safe.

Never got to stay. I wanted to transfer the booking to another date a month later due to making an error. Expedia let saying that the hotel would not refund the money, which I didn't want to do anyway and the hotel would change the date nor offer any other acceptable outcome. Very unhelpful from Expedia and the hotel, luckily it was only $75 but Kiwi's do not like this lack of service and my review may cost you more than my booking.

We booked 4 nights here and stayed one night and left. We were in the older part of the building, when we opened the door to the room we walked through cobwebs. The queen standard room looks nothing like the pictures advertised and was very damp/musty. The wallpaper was peeling, there was cobwebs and dust all throughout the room. The drinking glasses were not cleaned, they had dried liquid in the bottoms still. Huge crack in the bathroom, which could use an upgrade. The area outside seemed sketchy and unsafe. Reception unoccupied during check-in hours.

Overall the stay was okay and comfortable and had what we needed for the night. There was no reception on site but the janitor happened to be in the back and was able to contact owner (?), get our room key and send him a photo of our ID (kinda seemed like a sketchy process). The room is in an older building that had public access from downtown. Not soundproof at all as it’s regular wood doors along a hallway. But overall okay considering the low cost of the room and last minute booking.

Even though i paid for parking, there wasn't always one available, especially at night. Couldnt sleep when upstairs tenants were having party and stomping on floor which shakes bottom unit. Only one washing machine between all units which was leaking and draining down the driveway. The only positive part is its affordability and availability at short notice.

Worst motel I have ever paid to stay in. So filthy I got them to mop bathroom/kitchen before we could move in. Staff don’t speak any english so you have to call a number then that person translates for them. So rundown! DON’T STAY HERE! If I could give minus stars I would! Again, DON’T STAY HERE!
