The room was not particularly clean. Not awful, but lots of room for improvement. In the morning there was a rat in our bathroom. There were no staff on site when we checked out, so we were unable to report it.

A little run down and very basic
The room was clean but had a musty smell. The nightly rate was pretty decent for what amenities were included. The walls are very thin. I heard someone snoring in the room beside me and the pipes were very loud when someone flushed the toilet or had a shower.
There was a number to call at reception to get assistance. I went to ask for a hairdryer two different times , no one came to the front.
Very lovely lady at the front desk, most accommodating.
Ensured my dog and I had a good stay.
Room had a slight odour to it, perhaps due to the age of the building. Otherwise it was clean, central and safe.
Fire extinguishers outdated by 1.5 yrs.
Filthy blinds.
Coffee maker did not work. No proper dishes.
No iron. When provided it was disgusting with crusted surface and $2.00 sticker on it from 2nd hand store.
Ground littered with cigarette butts outside door.
This is a lovely family owned and run business. Our room and the facilities were clean and comfortable. We liked the extra sink in our room. The bed was comfortable. The windows kept out most of the road noise and we enjoyed our stay. We were there for one night. Recommended.
Nice little hotel. No issues with the room itself or the staff. But the walls are paper thin so you can hear everything that goes on in the adjoining rooms. You may get lucky but we didn't. Not their fault, it appears to be an older property, but you should know about it.

The staff were friendly. I was able to check in early. The bed was comfortable. Location easily accessible.
However the room is definitely in need of repair and uogrades. The fridge is appalling.
Good thing the rate low.
We booked a quick one night stay as we were in transition. We didn't expect much and we go what we expected. The motel is really dated though the bathroom was nicely updated. Our sheets had stains on them and our next door neighbours requested new sheets for the same reason. All in all, it is OK for a quick overnight, but I wouldn't be inclined to book more than that.
Clean room and renovated bathroom with excellent shower water pressure. Staff was friendly and very helpful. Really appreciated opportunity to do laundry. Hotel is across the street from Townsite market (excellent bakery), movie theatre and great Royal Zayka restaurant.
Our room door was left open when we checked in. The front desk lady was not presentable at all. Her living area was the office behing the counter and made the foyer smell like food and not in a good way. Her t.v was so loud she couldn't here the service phone. I tried three times to request an iron. Rooms that weren't being used were still dirty with garbage and beds unmade. The only reason we knew was because the curtains were left open for everyone to see. The stairs were scary to use, it felt like they were going to collapse at any moment. My family and I couldn't handle it anymore so I checked out a day early, booked at another hotel and took the loss of not getting a return.
