We spent 5 nights at the hotel in a single queen and had family in a suite. Motel nicely renovated and bed so comfortable. But the best thing about this Motel is Emerose and her staff. She was so helpful and resourceful in finding solutions for our changing dynamics in spite of a fully booked Motel all the while maintaining her warm, welcoming personality. She is a true jewel.

We stayed there for a night. The room had air conditioner and it was working well. The bathroom and the room was clean. There was a queen bed and feels good. There was ample parking space for car and its free. The only objection I had was there was no closet for cloth hanging except a portable rack which was not sufficient if you have a baby and furthermore no electric water kettle in the room although there was microwave oven. I would rate the place average if not excellent.

I discussed with the office attendant my concerns for them to look into with suggestions regarding prioritizing what needs to be upgraded. This is to reduce time taken up with complaints from visitors whose expectations exceed the reality of the surrounding community. It’s an older building, restoration to its earlier state will take time and be limited. The staff were courteous, friendly and prompt, I would not hesitate coming back or recommending this establishment as I can see from their vigilance there will be future improvements i.e. more parking with a couple spots for larger vehicles. Thank you!
