Staff was friendly and accommodating for a main floor room. Room was clean and tidy. Bathroom was well stocked, many of the other things could be updated. Bathroom light flickered and fan was loud. Microwave didn’t really work and bedding was older and mattresses as well. Tv worked fine and we had a restful sleep, with a coffee /tea and cookies included and available down the hall which was nice was nice

Rooms are pretty basic but clean and has a fridge with a tiny freezer. It was very quiet! They offer coffee and cookies in the cafe from 7-9 am. Friendly staff that double check that the room is clean before you go in. Very reasonable and only 10 min from Stratford

The property is dated but the room was very clean. Bed was very comfortable. Nothing fancy with this hotel but would recommend as the price is right! Staff are friendly and accommodating. It was about a 15 minute drive into Stratford.

Property was clean, but dated. Bed was terrible. Definitely need to upgrade. They were there cheapest one could possibly buy. This is a really inexpensive hotel. Wouldn't stay there again. Easy to get to on a main drag. Easy access to Stratford very few dining options close.

The property was very clean, quiet and the staff friendly and very helpful. There is very little around the property, however it is only 10 minutes from the theater and another 5 to downtown Stratford. If you want fancy and like to be pampered this is not the place for you. A great basic hotel that I would stay in again!

We liked the price compared to hotels/motels/B&B's/AirBnB,etc. in Stratford especially considering it was only a 10 minute car ride away from Stratford.

It's a budget property meaning that facilities are basic. A bed with clean sheets and a bathroom with clean towels. Everything worked as it should and was in a state of good repair.

Bathroom was dirty. Brown gunk under the door. They use strong chemicals to make it seem cleaner than it is. Probably won't stay there again.
