This is a cute little roadside motel. It was clean and the staff were friendly. It is very dated and the rooms are very small. There is a musty odour and not enough towels etc for 2 people. Could use a little TLC

No view, looking out onto parking lot, huge pot holes exiting parking lot not good for cars. I drove across Canada and this was the first time I was asked to pay for 1 hour early check in. I don’t understand the 200.00 security deposit policy for this place, and they check your room before you check out before releasing the deposit.
