Had to leave
It really was bad. I couldn’t stay there. The room smelled of smoke, the decor needed some serious updating, there was mould in the tub, slow Internet & garbage left outside. It was clearly a weekly rental for people down on their luck. I didn’t feel safe. The desk attendant was kind and understood my decision to leave.

Key did not work in the door. Non-smoking room smelt like stale smoke - had to open windows and even that did not help. Old furniture and carpet. When iwent to check out in the morning there was a note on the door saying “back at 9:30 am”!

Reception was prompt and friendly. The temperature was too hot and difficult to regulate. It was clean but could do with updated plumbing. Cable TV was basic only and I couldn't watch the Blue Jays! For the price and our purpose ( day surgery at the hospital) it adequately met our needs.

There were no Kleenex at all and only 1/2 a roll of toilet paper so I had to go out and buy some. Other than that, it was quiet and good value for the money. I would consider going back but will bring my own toilet paper and Kleenex.

As expected
It was exactly what I expected. A budget motel. The rooms were very clean and the beds comfortable. We had a problem with a large puddle in front of our door, I called the office and he moved us to another room, no problems. I would stay here again!

Typical MConsider this one if on a budget.otel
Stayed here while visiting Muskoka, Ontario. Ample parking and quiet. Rooms were clean and are equipped with fridge, microwave, and tv. A double room was a reasonable rate of $89.00 considering other options in the area. We got 3 different rooms with different capacity. There were no complaints from our group. Hotel location is good acentral to both shopping and restaurants in both midland.

Good value, clean and accommodating
Nice area outside with a bbqs. Good play area for kids. Good value, suited our needs. Could do with a bit of sound proofing, you can really hear into the other rooms. We would come back if staying in the area again.

Booked a room at last minute. For the price, it was well within what one would expect. Small cozy room. The nice touch is that there are two entrances to each room. . .one facing the parking lot, and the other facing a picnic area with BBQ grills.

The man working the front desk was incredibly rude. The people living in the motel made it scary. I was too afraid to leave my room alone at night.

Le proprietaire a annulé notre reservation !
A notre arrivé, le propriétaire de cet hôtel a annulé notre réservation car il estimait que nous n'avions pas payé assez chère sur Expedia. Il a ensuite voulu nous facturer presque le double. Ne sachant pas ou aller et étant loin de tout, on a négocier un prix entre les deux. C'est la première fois que je vois un établissement ne pas respecter une réservation et je déconseille tous de réserver cet hôtel. La chambre était correct sans plus mais de la bagarre a éclaté dans une chambre voisine. Il y a eu des cris et des allé-venus une bonne partie de la nuit.

Très bon rapport qualité prix. Pour les petits budgets, le fait d'avoir accès à un frigo et in micro onde permet de se faire à manger. C'est vieillot, mais l'essentiel du service est là et à ce prix là, on ne peut pas demander beaucoup plus!
