“Not recommended - Sketch City”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 2 August 2011

Very odd experience here, I completely regretted making a reservation. Unfortunately, I was so tired from traveling, I stayed, but I wish I had gone somewhere else. From the sounds of it, the motel has changed ownership recently, and the best word I can use to describe this place is SKETCHY!! Bed linens gross, slept on towels... Carpet not vacuumed, bathroom just awful.

“HORRIBLE HORRIBLE HORRIBLE”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 1 August 2011

This was the MOST disgusting place that I have stayed in my life. I made a reservation based on the internet. DUMB move on my part. I was travelling across Canada and thought that it looked like a cute place to stay. The housekeeper had to check us in, and we had to pay cash as the owner was passed out drunk inside. The room smelled horrible. All of our food had to be thrown out as the fridge was actually a freezer, and was frozen in the morning. I can't beleive that more people haven't written a review for this place. I can't believe that a health inspector hasn't closed this place down. Save your money, or spend a bit more and stay someplace that you don't feel the need to sleep in your clothes....

Room Tip: smelly and dirty

“DO NOT STAY HERE!!!!!”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 31 July 2011

This motel is filthy, dated and extremly unacceptable! No towels in the washroom. No curtins on the bathroom windows. Burn marks on the bedding. No fans or air conditioning. Very tiny rooms. Just go down the street and find much nicer, clean rooms and better value then this place. We didn't even stay the night. We left and found another room. STAY AWAY!!!!
