“Not impressed”
Hotel is behind a restaurant with tiny sign for hotel so drove by twice, hallway roasting hot and so was room so had air conditioner on at end of October, hotel room doors did not fit into frames so you heard slamming day and night by guests to get them closed, but in fairness rooms were neat, big and clean. Can't really recommend this hotel.
“not impressed”
This motel is not in very good shape.
“It's attached to a strip club...”
Wow - what a scary experience. The hotel is like one of those out of a cop TV show where someone always gets killed. It is attached to a strip club so that should tell ya the clientele around the place. The front desk area is quite nice and that's where it ends!!! The hallway smelled so badly of smoke and who knows what that I wondered how they would know to charge me the $200.00 fee if I did smoke in the room. If we were not just staying for 8 hours we would have been out of there right then. The toilet tank leaked when you sat down on the toilet - water everywhere which was initially gross until you realized it was just from the tank and not the bowl. All night long people were yelling and screaming right outside our doors. The banging on the doors from the parking lot side of the adjacent rooms was a little scary as well and the drunken patrons carrying on all night was, to say the least, incredibly annoying. Breakfast was a disappointment as well. They had little to offer and so we left very unsatisfied. The only good thing was that the beds were VERY confortable - too bad we didn't get any sleep......
“Would not stay there again.”
Obviously outdated....front desk charged me an extra 100 dollars at check in...just in case I damaged or smoked in the room....(it was refunded on check out), however I found it odd as I walked down the hall that clearly smelled of cigarette smoke. Rooms seemed mostly occupied by rowdies who could be heard well into the night. Not to mention the bar attached....well I tried to add the name but got an inappropriate language message when I tried to submit the review. Cleaning staff were nice and pleasant.
“Never again”
Stained bedding and a toilet with no seat. No more needs to be said.
“Dewdrop”
Not the beat, but for the price....OK.
“Full of ants”
Great location close to car rental place, room was full of ant, AC was not very good .
“"Our backs still ache when we hear those words...Howard Johnson."”
Greeted by musty odors in the air. Couch in the room had holes in it and was filthy dirty. Carpet had never been professionally cleaned in YEARS. The most uncomfortable pillows imaginable. We didn't even use them.The room was run down and in bad condition. My husband and I slept on top of the comforter and would not sleep under the covers. The mattress put our backs out literally. We are seeking chiropractor care upon return from vacation. The mattresses are so old that when you sit in the middle of the mattress it caves in and you almost fall off the bed when you sit at the edge. We did not eat anything at the hotel or bring anything back from nearby restaurants. You do not want to place any clothing or belongings in drawers so we kept everything in our luggage and placed belongings on top of the table. We kept socks or slippers on when walking on the carpet and sleeping. The first thing we did was check the mattresses for bed bugs. We slept in our clothing and coats. The sink and counter top next to the bathroom was dirty. My advice is that this hotel needs to be shut down and never offered to customers from any travel agency or company. The noise level was high. We got awoken to slamming doors in the hallways and hearing people walking in their rooms from upstairs above us throughout the night. Our sleep was minimal. I HIGHLY recommend that you NEVER go to this motel.
“For the well travelled”
This hotel is good for those who are road warriors and have seen a few before. I certainly would not bring my family there. I read the trip advisor after booking. My mistake.....it is a run down building, This was the worst room I got during my cross Canada trip, and many motels were small and cheaper. The staff try to present a clean room but they can't make up for the overall state of the building. A local resident told me they were looking at tearing it down and building a new one. Might I suggest they start building first,
“Bad hotel”
Worst hotel I have ever been. No water pressure on the shower. It was supposed to be non-smoking but room smelled like ashtray. You can hear all sorts of noise other people make from upstairs or next door.
