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…

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.

This property did not look like the pictures that we initially saw on Expedia. Very rundown, dated, and several things not working. Several people live in this hotel full-time. But it was quiet, the sheets were clean, and it met our needs.

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.

Unit was run down. Unit smelled of cigarette smoke. Lighting poor. Heating wasn’t working so had a couple small electric fans that were noisy. Extremely noisey unit up stairs due to no sound proofing. Garbage in parking area and ice not cleared in front of unit.

Some good points and some not so good

This was a place of contrasts. The rooms, separate bedroom and living quarters, were large, with vinyl plank flooring, which I love. There was a full-size fridge and a microwave. On the down side, there was a stove, but the oven didn't work. The only window in the living area was really dirty. The owners(?) sat outside for several hours and I kept wondering why they weren't washing windows!! There wasn't a hair dryer, ice machine or hot water. I ran the water for a bit, but decided not to have a shower because the water didn't get hot and I didn't want to waste any more than I already had. When we went to bed, it was so noisy in one of the rooms beside us. It sounded like there was remodelling going on and it kept on for the longest time. On the whole, the price was great but I'd certainly be willing to pay more for hot water and a hair dryer.
