The owners/managers were very friendly and were quick to assist us with any needs (e.g., an electric kettle, extra pillows). Location is fantastic. About a 15 minute walk to the falls and plenty of restaurants nearby. Also, great parking and clean, renovated rooms.

The place is just OK. However, it’s a 15 mins walk away to Clifton Hill which is a big plus. No need to bring your car there to pay for parking. The only downside were….. it’s a no smoking room but you can smell the cigarettes on the hallway and they have people banging closing the doors on the hallway in and out at 3am. We didn’t really rested well because of the noise and you can hear people talking so loud.

Thank you for your review.We are so sorry that your stay was less than perfect.The whole hotel is non-smoking unfortunately we appeared to have a number of guest during yout visit that would smoke outside and then come straight back in while the smell was still sttrong on thier clothes. There was also one couple that was particularly loud and was smoing in the room that we had to ask to leave. We are working on ways to reduce the sound travel from the hallway into the rooms. .

We are sad that you had a terrible time. I am not sure exactly why this was.I hope it was not due to the confussion of the front desk clerk when you arrived for your booking for 2 Adults with 3 cars full of people she counted approximately 12 people.It is a bit unfair to rate a stay in a room with a capacity of 4 Adults when you show up with 12 many of which used the room in rotation to either sleep, shower or eat.Perhaps if you had booked the correct number of rooms for your party you would have been more comfortable.

this place is seemingly run on a shoestring budget, no frills, not even any regular channels on the TV. The bed was not great. The original hotel lobby has been turned into a takeout pizza joint. The place however, is functional and is in a decent location. If you want a basic room with no frills, this place is it.

Thank you for your reveiw.We are sad that we did not meet your mark for a small 2 star hotel. The beds are new and medium firm and most people love them. As for the TV we cater to everybody we do have the facility for every regular channels and thosuands more for thoses looknig to spend time in front of the box. However we recently installed Chromecast becasue that is what the majority of our guests have asked for so that they can stream their premium channels. I guess the jury is out with the Pizza Joint vs the old hotle lobby., However it is new and missed the open of the season but appears ro be gaining a local following. We are aiming for friendly. clean and comfortable, with attentive staff with a slice near bye should you want that late night bite.

The room was spacious and functional with television, mini fridge, A/C and walking distance to Clifton Hill. However, the pillows we're cheap (chunks of foam), we had a bath faucet in our stand-up shower (no bath) and there was a piece of metal stuck in a power outlet (very dangerous)!
Stayed 2 nights in Sep 2023
Response from The Mamma's Team on Sep 18, 2023
Thank you for your review, after your husband informed us about the outlet we immediately removed the grounding prong. I have never seen one of them break off in a plug and I am not sure how that would even happen. So I'm very surprised that someone would not notice if they broke one off and report it right away, unless there was malicious intent.I am sorry that you did not find the pillows comfy. We purchase them from hotel suppliers and replace them regularly.

The stay was budget friendly and still close to the Niagara activities. Most places are within a short walk. There were limited amenities in the room - but at least they offer a small fridge (no Microwave, kettle or coffee maker in-room). TV streaming service available but the WIFI connectivity was poor.

Response from The Mammas Team on Sep 4, 2023
Thanks for your review. The issue with the keys is that they use a magnetic strip and modern smart phones have a strong magnet on the back and the wireless charging is also magnet base.Many people keep their keycards with their phone so they don't lose them. However if the phone case is not thick enough it demagnetizes the strip.We are sorry for the inconvenience

There are bugs/ants, aircon not working so well, the lady in charge in giving towels was so rude. Very frustrating that we chose to stay here.
Stayed 1 night in Jun 2023
Response from The Mamma's Team on Jun 12, 2023
I am sorry that you did not enjoy your visit. However we welcome your comments and criticisms.Addressing your issues,Housekeeping has not seen any ants in the rooms on the 3rd floor, this could be caused by guests propping open the fire door on the floor when they go outside to smoke instead of coming downstairs through the hotel front door. This is an issue we are trying to address. It is hard to stop nature from coming in through an open door, We pride ourselves at keeping the rooms as clean as possible. The aircon has a thermostat and that is why it does not stay on all the time. This is an old building that was recently renovated with all new furniture and beds. Air conditioners are maintained regularly and are replaced when they reach the end of their life cycle.There were 2 towel sets in your room because you booked for 2 Adults (which is the base occupancy) then close to midnight when asking for more towels we are a small hotel and there is not 24 hour housekeeping,When the lady tried to exchange your towels it turns out that you had 5 adults in a room that has a max. occupancy of 4 avoiding the incremental charge for the additional adults. You then slammed the door in her face when asking how many people that you had informing that the room was booked for 2 and hotel policy does not allow unregistered guests to stay over.The hotel didn't charge the additional 60 that was due. As a courtesy.Again I am sorry for your frustration with the question from the guest manager but hotel policies are there for a reason, both for your safety and the enjoyment of other guests.

Thank you for bringing this to our attention. I have ordered a new screen for that room.I found that there is a sizable tear in the screen in the window of that room and we notice that this time of year small flies are abundant in the field beyond our parking area. We do apologise some of these flies do get in from time to time but a screen prevents them from directly entering the rooms.

Response from The Mammas Inn Team on Jun 5, 2023
As I explained when you arrived, the room you had booked had a maintenance issue. So I upgraded you to a better room, so that you were not exposed tot the damage your room received over the Memorial Day Weekend. In moving you I conciously moved you to the more private wing away from the crowd of college kids that were visiting us over the weekend. And as explained we were fully booked due to a couple of rooms that wer had to put under maintenance. The new room was newly renovated and exactly the same cost as the room you booked. The a/c was working before and is still working after your stay.Before you checked in I showed you two rooms and you stayed in the room you had selected. I am sorry that we did not live up to your expectations, although we cannot control the noise from outside the hotel. Niagara Falls is a noisy entertainment city. But my team and I continue to strive to improve daily.

Only have really two things that I didn't like avout the place. First they're checking time is 3:00 p.m. and they stick to that. I find it a bit late to have to check into a place at that time, I would have preferred if it was at 12:00. Secondly, in order to get in the door if there's no one at the front desk they give you two phone numbers to call. The first number I called wasn't able to take calls and the second number I didn't get any answer so it was a bit frustrating. Other than that the rooms are kept clean a couple of little minor details that could be addressed but no big deal.

Thanks for your kind comments and constructive ciritsisms. Regarding the check in the major hotels have 16:00 check in. The reason is it takes a considerable time to do the housekeeping and people can checkout at 11:00 to get an early check in would require an early check out of the same room type.With regards to your second point, we have a new mamagement and there is only one number to call and there will always be someone there to take care of your check in needs.
