I had an unfortunate change of plans and called days in advance to cancel but they said no refund. Be sure to check on Expedia what the cancel policy is.

GoogleMaps will take you to what looks like Burger King, but it is the correct way. It's there down beneath the Burger King. Motel is a little worn out through time. I'm fragrance sensitive and I could smell a *Faint hint of laundry detergent in the sheets. It was still tolerable though. I slept fine. The night attendant didn't hand me a Wi-Fi password, so I don't know if there's Wi-Fi or not. For 60$ the price, and location were good. I went mountain biking the next day in St.James.

Cheap enough to warrant 5 stars

My stay at Finns was a mixed experience. While the room's bed was exceptionally comfortable—truly one of the best I've ever slept on in a hotel—the lack of any food options was a significant drawback. I was surprised to find there was no free breakfast, a common amenity at many hotels. More disappointingly, there were no food options available for purchase at all. This meant that every meal required a trip off-site. For someone who prefers the convenience of dining in or grabbing a quick bite before heading out, this was a major inconvenience. Ultimately, while the comfort of the bed made for a great night's sleep, the complete absence of food service makes me hesitant to recommend this hotel to fellow travelers who value convenience and on-site dining options.

Owners are very rude, threatening to call cops if I wasn’t fien to the office in 5 mins to pay for another night. Said we could not workout outside, made my son open the door so they could see who was inside and made me write down names of everyone staying for no reason after I already paid the night up.
