Loud window air conditioner.
Room clean but ants in room. Staff ok.
Holes in washroom door on both sides.
I stayed in this motel twice before and room s much better.
We checked in about 6 pm and obviously got the wore room available.
Looks like a one star hotel at best but in an ideal location.
I suspect the property will be sold for development soon as next door to St>F.X. university.

The room was nice but showing a bit of age and seemed somewhat cramped. It was nice if you are only using it to sleep in, which we were.

The AC was great and nice shower pressure which was a blessing after a day of horse shows. Would definitely stay there again!!!

Property is very sadly maintained. Room was barely ok. Sheets so thin there was almost holes in them. Bathroom door was bashed in at one point and never got fixed.
Only one lamp between our beds. Only other light was an overhead which made the room feel very gloomy in depressing. Would not stay there again.

Clean and comfortable. Some loud music coming from one of the rooms (long holiday weekend) but seemed to quiet down around 11pm. Had a good sleep - A/C worked well. TV remote a bit glitchy but worked well after we manually turned it on. McDonalds and A&W nearby for breakfast. Fridge and microwave in room as well as coffee maker - well stocked - you can pick up extra cups and coffee from reception. Friendly staff. Parking outside your room door. Very large rooms. Nice and clean. Lots of hot water for showers. Bo desk as such but a nice little table with two chairs that would do for a workspace. We had a room with 2 queen beds. Second time here and we will stay again for sure!

The mattress was terrible in the room. I was late getting back to the room and didn’t notice how bad the mattress was til late at night. It was terrible!! That mattress has been like that for a long time and I’ll assume that I’ve not been the only one who’s complained about it. I was only their for the one night and sucked it up. I was going to mention to the front desk but I’m guessing they already know and are just ignoring the issue!
