Negative Reviews
negative:
Signs of disrepair are found throughout.
Well worn furnishings along with broken doors and windows create some fairly shabby looking accommodations. Other complaints include drainage problems in the bathrooms and a broken gate for the parking area.
negative:
Rooms often feel unhygienic.
A host of bad odours, including musty smells and cigarette smoke, are found in many of the spaces at this motel. Dirty walls and carpeting with mould and grime contribute to many people feeling the property is far from being presentable.
negative:
Motel doesn't provide a good value for everyone.
Not every person is willing to trade a bargain rate for the quality of stay they receive. The immediate neighbourhood can feel unsafe, according to posted reviews. There are also very few amenities and what is included, such as the Wi-Fi access, aren't very usable.
