It was an excellent stay although it's far from where we wanted to go, Niagara Falls. 45 minute drive, but that's not a negative on the motel. There is no breakfast, just sugar cereal and pastries. The staff is very friendly and helpful. Safe location, no worries there, and one more thing that I think is VERY important...the beds were wonderful! Very comfortable sleep.

We absolutely loved our stay! They were extremely accommodating for our request for an early checkin. Such a gift after travelling all night. It’s like a home away from home. There are a few cosmetic issues in the room with wallpaper and baseboards. But it’s CLEAN! So it didn’t bother us at all. Would stay here again in a heart beat. The breakfast is cereal, prepackaged breakfast sandwiches, yogurt, and mini muffins. If you’re wanting a warm breakfast we would suggest going to Bill’s Diner down the road. It was $30 for two people and the portions were great.

Niagra family trip

Great overall place to stay for a day or two. We went for a family trip to niagra falls and stayed at lake ontario motel. It was about 35-40 mins drive to niagra falls. The motel is a small but good size rooms, bathroom size is small though. Great outdoor deck, breakfast is just some cold muffins, yogurt, cinnamon rolls. They keep all the food in fridge so nothing fresh. Overall a good place .
