Great location - great value.
I enjoyed my stay at this property. Rooms were large, clean, nice TV. Cute lil ceramic bears with Santa hats on the building exterior:) Park in front type of motel just a short block or less from the main drag. Even had a shortcut into a shopping village. School next door with church bells ringing periodically during school hours. I could see the lit Anakeesta mountain chalet from my door. My room 217 the shower ?? water noise from nearby super loud thankfully never was late or early. I would stay here again if the price was kept reasonable.

Is it the cleanest or most up to date? No. But is it a cheap, decent option for a short vacation? Absolutely. My one and only actual complaint is the bright lights in the parking lot and the lack of blackout curtains. Each time we stay here (stayed with family and then a friend) everyone wakes up at all hours of the night thinking it’s morning time because the light shines in so much.

This is a no frills hotel, but it was clean and well apportioned. The shower was excellent. They also had a nice fire circle where we met a number of other Travellers.

Older Updated Hotel Convenient to Downtown
Older updated hotel, convenient to all things so we could walk and not have to drive in terrible traffic. Our remote to tv was missing the back and a battery so we manually changed channels the whole time. We made them aware on first night but told them not to worry about it that night and assumed they would fix the next day, but it never happened. We didnt use it much anyway, just kept it on same channel most of the time. Floor was pretty dirty! Grandsons white socks were black after only a few hours. For convenience of location and price, we would definitely stay again.
