Good location, affordable prices, nice stuff, but cleanliness leaves a lot to be desired... Also, if you stay in closest to Tim Hortons apartment you will be forced to constantly listen to negotiations about ordering food from their Drive Through

Worst experience in my whole life. Feared for my life staying here. Blood stains in the sheets, clogged toilet, dirty carpets, broken AC unit. The place should be shut down.

If you want a room that's not fussy, cheap and comfortable, for me it meets all the requirements for a decent stay. There is a nice pool, many restaurants in the area. If you don't have a car it's convenient for Niagara transit.

Lobby was a mess. We climbed 3 flights of stairs to our room, only to find an ashtray full of cigarette butts outside our door. Room was ok, but all we could hear was the next door Tim Hortons drive thru taking orders all night. There was junkies shooting up near the parking lot.

First we got a room that was a pig stye.ripped curtains our door trimfell off soon as opened the door shower head leaked and some dont have cabl tv or anything and no microwaves in rooms. I will never go back there again. Had to pay extra for parking while there. No security, no protection of vehicles as the owner allows people to hit other vehicles and leave without informing the customers nor the police.
