Good price and location. Love the large sitting area in the center court yard. Nice to have our vehicle right outside our room door.

Easy Place to Stop
We only stayed one night as it was a stop on our roadtrip. It was quiet and the hotel clerk was nice enough to offer us a way to check in after hours and included a late check-out knowing we were arriving so late.

We enjoyed the garden space with fountain and seating areas, although it could use a bit more maintenance. The beds were excellent.

There was nothing I liked about this place. I was super disappointed in the rooms cleanliness. I have worked has a chambermaid and in older hotels like this and I can say this place was very unclean. Dried on food on the chairs and stove. Bathroom had hair and dirt that u could tell has built up and hair on the pillows. Unfortunately we got there on the later side and being Creston places to stay were very limited. It’s the first time I ever slept in my clothes that’s how bad it was. I don’t normally express this much in a review but maybe they will see this and start doing inspections on their rooms.

Really appreciate the early check-in accomodation as we had arrived earlier than expected from a very long and tiring drive. Clean room and comfy beds. Also loved the on-site restaurant options. To the staff, keep up the great work! Will definitely stay again when passing through.

Just awful. Wifi doesn’t work in the rooms, only in the office. The staff blamed it on us having an iPhone….. the rooms were filthy and full of critters. Beds were uncomfortable. Air conditioning does not reach the bedroom or bathroom. This motel failed in every aspect of what you want in a second stay.

It was handy for our needs and clean, however dated. This hotel is older and sliding windows with a stick for security and a chain on the door inside are minimal at best. Gapping under the door was noticed as well. It’s better than some and for it’s quality , an ok price.

The filth of the room was so bad. Spiderwebs (inhabited).under every ledge, corner, nook and cranny. Hair, dirt, and webs of this magnitude could be less if you slept outside. The kitchen counters had been wiped, but the front of the stove was entirely streaked with grease, the top of the fridge full of dirt, old food crumbs in the cupboards and drawers, the fridge still had food circles in it. Just overall unhygienic.

Good, basic motel
We had the king bed, which was fine. Room had a mini fridge and microwave, and a loveseat for sitting, which was nice. There is a restaurant on-site, but it was closed the night we were there.

Ok stop.
Booked through hotels.ca indicating 4 adults, paid that fee, but was then emailed we owed more monies for 4. We paid it and our room was clean, kitchen equipped with dishes, utensils and even some pots, comfortable beds, two bedroom suite which was nice, very quiet. The manager was very good to bring us extra towels and pillows. Yes, I would recommend to travellers.
