Room was filthy and disgusting. I opened the door and about 10 garbage flies came flying out. If it was so late and already booked through Expedia I would have just left but almost 175 dollars later. I didn't sleep and left as soon as it started to get light out wouldn't even shower in that old moldy bathroom. Wish I could give it a 0 star rating
Some repairs begin but not painted. Basic accommodations but clean and good value for the money. The best parts were the lovely check in lady and the view and sound of the river.
Room was clean, needs a little updating and some screws need tightening. Staff was great in accommodating our needs. Love that it was pet friendly. Close to restaurants and situated in a lovely setting overlooking the lake and brook. Relatively quiet. I would stay here again.
Total dump. Expedia shouldn't have this motel on their website if they want any kind of reputation. Paid for 2 nights stayed one place was too dirty to stay 2nd night. Other rooms smelled like bug spray and had exposed wiring.
Our room was dirty, had long hair on towels, stained sheets, a loose toilet that literally wasn't fastened to floor, stains on the curtains and a super bright exterior light to keep you up all night. Paid 150 per night wasn't worth 50.
the room was small and the upstairs shower drained in my tub - totally inacceptable and disguisting. There was noise till 3:10 am making it impossible to sleep and i did NOT feel safe at all. It was a horrible experience.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
Disliked: Amenities
The room was relatively clean but very old and dingy. The tub and shower area had mold around the top of it but the hot water was plentiful. The beds were not terribly comfortable. There was no screen on the window. There was absolutely nowhere to get any food as all the restaurants are closed and even Tim Hortons was under renovation. The most positive thing would be the beautiful falls and water at the back of the property.
Where to start?? Smells , curtain broken . Bathroom door doesn’t shut. Extremely outdated. But we did lock ourselves out and front desk clerked came up to open the door lol ..
Noisy. Lousy shower. Faucets were loose.
Curtains were so thin and exterior lights were so bright the room was lit up all night making sleeping very difficult.
