They assigned me a room with an old fashioned bathroom even though there are ample rooms with nice bathroom. The washroom was originally designed for the physically challenged and it is well suited for one time washroom use. There is no bath tub and when you take shower , the water will be all over the washroom and the second person can not use it dry, I was so surprised why they have to assign me that room even though I used to at property multiple times before

We were terrified to see how dirty were the dining and lounge area. It felt disgusting to sit let alone eat on the chairs or sofas. The breakfast was very poor and only pork and bacon served and nothing else to offer to this who don’t eat either. The room was decent but the air felt suffocating. Even the staff were not wearing good or clean uniforms. I wonder who the manager for this venue is?! Never again will we book at the place!

Absolutely disgusting. Absolutely unsafe. I wish i could post photos and viceos. From something as simple as the noisy pipes, to something as disturbing as a broken door (The door had clear signs of a BnE....the would paneling was broken....), a chair stationed directly in front of my room...? And disgusting mold, and weird residue. I cannot stress enough, DO NOT EVEN CONSIDER STAYING HERE. I checked in with my fiancee...i had to get her home for the night, because there were simply too many red flags, and weve endured motels. i waited for "management". They took until the next morning. Issued nothing. Not even a word face to face. They simply told me, "SORRY, YOU SPENT THE NIGHT. I HOPE YOU ENJOYED YOUR STAY!". Then spent the rest of their time hiding, claiming they had a meeting....christ

Upon check in there was no communication that the pool was not open during our stay. The rooms shower was not working, which made clean up for myself at the end of the day difficult as the tub was very shallow for myself to have a bath. When I brought this to the attention of front desk. The apology I received was not taken as a sincere apology. Just an apology to stop me from complaining. Communication amongst all departments in this hotel needs to be improved.

The motel was clean, quiet, and comfortable. Breakfast and all day coffee was very good. Staff was very helpful. The pool was nice but was so over chlorinated that had us sitting by the outside opened door. When the inside bubbler in the pool was activated, it made our grandchildren cough and choke. Other swimmers as well.

Hotel room was clean, beds were very comfortable. Breakfast was well done with enough variety. Pool water was cloudy, there was a bubble machine in the middle which was fun but stirred up the water and there appeared to be rusty bubbles in the one corner. Walls seemed a bit thin between rooms, but was okay. If the pool significantly improved in cleanliness I would highly recommend staying here.
