Room had multiple visible red blood stains on the bedding, floor, and bathroom wall/outlet when we checked in late at night. Sheets smelled laundered but were clearly stained. I documented everything with photos and reported it to the manager in the morning. He dismissed it and refused a refund. Expedia support contacted the property but was also refused. This is a sanitation issue, not a preference issue. I would not stay here again.

The room was very large with 2 big beds, though the bathroom was very tiny. The motel reminded me of traveling with my parents during the 70's on a road trip. Its dated, but comfortable. The carpet had a big stain...so though I felt the room was clean, I wasn't comfortable walking on the carpeted floor and wore slippers. The continental breakfast was simple...bagels and yogurt in a small fridge. The office hours didn't start until 8:30 which is a little late if you want to hit the road early and grab a quick breakfast. But overall, everything was good. Our thanks to the staff.

Clean, renovated, spacious, 15 min to Port Stanley

Clean, renovated, spacious motel 15 min drive from Port Stanley beach. Management/Staff were friendly, even though I arrived late for check-in late. They were informative of how the electricity in room worked and what amenities were available in the room. Staff asked in the morning how our stay was. Great towels, toiletries (soap,shampoo), coffee maker, fridge with freezer and microwave were appreciated. Beds were 8.5/10. Charging outlets by the bed. plenty of lighting.
(a note to management- NO impact on our overall stay- Bathroom fan was loud, some dust under the furniture, free breakfast was basic, no half and half for coffee/tea.
Windows/room are not sound proof. Heavy sleepers won't be impacted.

Booked this facility based on the very misleading rating on Expedia which seems to be the norm now - which I would caution other users too that not everything that has higher rating necessarily may live up to your expectation. This motel is not for families if you are visiting London. It was dirty cramped, not accessible at all for someone in wheelchair.

I’m a Marriott girl. But all hotels in London were sold out due to Convocations at Western. So we took a chance here. We were very happy with our choice!
This motel is not fancy, but it is clean, well taken care of and fairly priced. Beds were in good shape. Very easy to find. Management are friendly, they even waited for us to arrive after hours as we were stuck in traffic.
