It’s clean enough for the price. The bed was a queen, but shaped so that you roll into the middle. It’s better than sleeping in a vehicle. The baseboards could use a scrubbing but the floors were clean. There are loose boards on the ceiling in the bathroom and loose trim around a hatch on the floor. But overall, if you’re looking for a cheap place to spend the night in a clean bed it’s fine.

Great modest overnight pit stop.

Our group needed 2 rooms. They put us in side by side rooms each with kitchen areas. Spacious. Very dated but clean! A maintenance worker noticed we had trouble with the key and came to help immediately. Less than $100 each room. Quick friendly respectful check in. Easy hands off check out.

Photos aren’t recent, this place hasn’t been updated since the 70s. Bed was full of hair and stains, looked like it hadn’t been cleaned within the last 3 guests. The shower didn’t look clean. The toilet was! The sink was also mostly clean, still had some hair from the previous guest. The place also smells like stale cigarettes from when it used to be a smoking motel. In order to use the fridge, we had to literally peel the door open. Something spilled in that fridge months ago and still hasn’t been cleaned. Parking was easy, right in front of your room. Plug ins available for those really cold nights. The lady at check in was super nice too. These are my only 2 positives. I wanted to leave and sleep somewhere else, boyfriend just suggested we make the best of it. The room was more than warm enough thankfully (it was almost -30 overnight). Spend the extra money and stay at the motel next door if you want a place that’s CLEAN. I should’ve stuck with my gut and stayed where I’ve stayed previously…

This was a great stop over on our travels to Washington state. We were tired and perfect location. The hotel was older but they made it very clean and comfortable for what we needed for the night.

Parking was difficult, trailers in the way. Dog food and Pet hair on floor. After being asked if I had pets, the answer was "No I am allergic!" Then to be put in a dirty pet room felt uncaring and disrespectful.

Various stains around the room and on the sheets, shabby. I'm a basic type of person and didn't complain. Reading other reviews, I think it's normal to find rooms like this. I'm not familiar with prices in Canada, but for the same price, I got a much nicer and well-maintained room in another property.

The room was so poorly maintained that I immediately took a video documenting it as a precaution; under the bed was a lot of debris and some garbage, there was a ball of hair from a hairbrush on the bathroom floor, the ceiling in the bathroom was sagging in, and it was clear the sheets had not been changed before we were given the room. We did go to the front desk, and the woman kindly changed the sheets and apologized. The staff was friendly, but we'll never stay there again. 10 years ago, this was a well-maintained older property, but it appears that the new ownership doesn't have the same standards. Very disappointed because we wanted to give them the benefit of the doubt.

New Owner was onsite and handled the check-in. Seems to be putting a lot of effort into continually renovating the business. I was passing through to Alaska in January, and this was an easy place to get some quick sleep. I plan to drive through again in February or March, and plan to stay here again.
