    The price was very good for the accommodations as somewhere for me to sleep and store my stuff while in town. The bed was comfortable and the bathroom was clean.

    It was warm and the air conditioning was inadequate. Fortunately I brought my own fan. The tv was extremely small and the modem wasn’t plugged in so I had to configure how to get it working which I didn’t appreciate after a 12 hour drive.

    They only charged me $15 for both my dogs. Some places charge $30 for first and $20 for second. Needless to say, I don’t stay at those places. The shower was hot with good water pressure. Room was clean.

    The room had a strange smell. The toilet never worked, and the fridge didn't keep anything cold. It was insanely hot because the AC didn't work and the walls are so thin, every door that closed, it literally shook our room. It was okay for a one night stay, but I don't think I'll be back. Spend the extra $20 on a decent room.

    The beds were decently comfy.

    I wanted to checkout at 5:30 AM but no one was at the front desk and no response on their phone as well. I left keys in the room and locked it from the outside because I was on a tight schedule. I called the hotel at around 10 AM, and the guy claims he was there in the front since 5:00 AM. Guy checked us out over phone, but he was being combative for no reason.

    Parking was great. Beds were comfortable. Microwave and fridge was useful.

    We were unable to log into a secure wifi site. The price seemed about $20 too much for such a basic room.

    The room was clean, although very basic. The beds were comfortable.

    The room smelled like urine. Unfortunately a recent occupant urinated on one of the chairs in the room (cloth upholstery) and hid this. The cleaning staff did not note this prior to our arrival. They did offer air fresheners and the room was fine once the chair was removed.

    The location was convenient and the staff pleasant and helpful. They divide the facility with smoking rooms on one side and non-smoking on the other so there is no scent of smoke when on the non-smoking side.

    the sheets in the bed were stained. we had a late check in Friday night and were exhausted from an 8 hour drive. it was also very hot in the room and due to the condition of the room we were forced to sleep in sweaters and jogging pants. did not make for a comfortable rest.

    convenient location, not far from where we were heading the following day.

    Facility needs a lot of outside upgrading. There was no coffee room that I could find and the manager was not helpful in showing me where it was....if indeed there was one. Because of no coffee in the room I would looking for a cup. Found Tim Horten's close by.

    Noisey, could hear the people in the next room, drinking and partying until about 5am, closed door to the outside, you could see the light from the outside not air tight ! Glad it was not winter there for the stay, bed was ok, not that comfortable.

    It was clean, cleaning lady was nice. Close to where I was going
