Our BR ceiling leaked water. Also, while in the BR, the metal vent fell on my head. We had to change rooms late at night. We were given a better room. We were told they would take away 1 nights room fee. Never did. Probably won’t return.

PROS: Staff was quite friendly and allowed us check in early which was much appreciated. Our room was quiet from anything outside. Fridge and A/C units worked well and were quiet. CONS: There was only ONE electrical outlet available to charge phones and it was on the opposite wall of the beds. The TV is mounted quite high and is in one corner which makes it difficult to view. The mattresses seemed old and you could hear the springs move. The toilet seat was not attached to the toilet. The outside doors to enter the building are kept UNlocked so anyone can enter and roam. The keys are returned to an open basket where anyone can pick up a key, make a quick copy, and enter a room later.

We booked this property as the reviews didnt seem awful at the time, and we simply just needed somewhere to sleep for the night . Big mistake. . The entire building did not smell right, the carpets were super stained in the room we were in, there was fruit flies flying around in the room the moment we got in there. The whole thing just made us feel off. We then got a call about a bit of a family emergency and decided to leave after being on the property for MAYBE 10 minutes. While I understand there is policies in place for refunds the whole thing was absolutely ick. We weren’t offered a refund but told if we ever needed to come back that they would give us the room “free” ….i couldn’t imagine sleeping there at all. I was so disappointed. Lesson learned. The only thing positive I can say is they seemed friendly, but definitely not understanding.

Nice little hotel! The staff/owners were accommodating, the room was clean, no shortage of hot water and a decent size TVs. As an opportunity the rooms were small, not the greatest mattresses, not the best maintenance as the door would not close on it’s own and there were no locking devices inside the room. You get what you pay for and it was reasonable. Cheers,

Simple but clean
Check in was easy. Arrived at 1pm . Roome was basic but clean. All we needed it for was a place to sleep for the night as we were visiting family having an anniversaey celebration. Rooms were clean. Bed was firm but comfortable. Can't beat the price point for this area. Only 7-10 minutes from Stratford.
