I wish the fridge had a freezer, though they did supply an ice bucket which a staff member filled for me. Glad to see recycling bins. These are often missing in hotels/motels.

Is a good spot to stay if you have children and need a suite to prepare food. Also, the attached restaurant serves good meals and reasonably priced. Good location too.

The staff were helpful and courteous. Rooms were clean and comfortable. We had a kitchenette. Only thing was the pots and pans weren't sufficient so we had to go buy so we could make supper. Only bad thing found was the bathroom exhaust fan was disgustingly dirty. We very much enjoyed our stay tho.

Had an issue with the Room being extremely HOT so when I contacted the Owner he looked into it immediately & shortly after he went into the basement to check it out the problem was fixed within minutes. Restaurant on site with Fantastic food that has a small Thomas the Train that going around the top of the ceiling throughout the whole Restaurant. Dynamite to witness:) Absolutely stay there again. Thank You!!! CR

The room smelled so much like cigarette smoke that it inflamed my lungs and I had to leave because I couldn’t breathe. If you have sensory issues or asthma, stay away.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities
Was a good spot for the night. Didn't try the restaurant. Close to the museum and other activities we wanted to see. Excellent and very friendly staff. Cleaners used are very strong, it overtakes the entire room. So if you are scent sensitive, you'd have problems. It's an older property and it shows but it's a quiet place for a good sleep.

Disliked: Amenities
Rooms are dated, not particularly clean. I noticed the fan in my bathroom and the AC unit were filthy (and incredibly noisy but I could forgive that). Looked like mould on the ceilings but couldn’t be sure. Linens were actually very clean though, so in terms of a place to sleep, it was fine.

The beds were very lumpy and squeaky. The room was dirty. The inside of door looked as though it had never been cleaned. Gave me the heebe jeebies
