Property and parking were filthy, cigarette butts lined the curbs. Smoke fumes permeated every where as we climbed an antiquated wooden staircase to the second floor. Doorkobs were damaged as well as doors themselves. No hot water and cold had no force .

I slept so well that I didn’t even think about the lock not working and my truck potentially missing in the morning.

This place needs to be condemned, it is so disgusting, you can see the beg bugs crawling over, they use tape to fix broken beds, there’s no actual heater, you get a space heater. The fridge had bullet holes in it. It realest of cigarettes. Definitely read the reviews before eating money here. :/

This is the worse place I ever see in mi life. It is duty, and is rented to drug dealers, and homeless people. The place is rusty, trash is all over, spider webs are under the bed, lights don’t work, tub is moldy, the sink does not have hot water, I paid for “breakfast” when I reserve and the have no restaurant. They gave me 15.00 $ gift card for two people, and I paid the rest for the food. The price is three time the real value. The picture they posted on line may be the only room they have but they don’t rent that one. They should be charging 30.00 dollars for the room no 130.00. This is horrible!

Never again
Me and my boyfriend drove 6 hours to go see a show in Toronto. Overall the hotel looked decent on the booking site and very cheap, we aren’t fancy or picky people when it comes to hotels. As soon as we got there, I was shocked. People were literally living in the rooms, kids toys lying around in the parking lot. The dirtiest front desk ever, with bags of dirty clothes lying in the hallways. There were garbage bags everywhere. We got into our room and it took us 10 min before turning back and leaving. The bath had yellow liquid in it, the tv set had carvings in the wood by people, the bed sheets were dirty, etc. We tried getting a refund considering how unsanitary everything was, but the “owner” constantly refused. In all, we didn’t even stay the night. The worst place we’ve ever been too.

THIS PLACE IS TERRIBLE!!! Don't ever book your stay to this place. I don't mind staying in a motel or inn but this one wasn't recommendable at all. the pictures looks okay but when we arrived there i find it so sketchy, building was old and looks like they rented some of the rooms, looks like they were settled to that area. We stayed for only one night to give it a chance but i paid for 4nights. However we left the following day, couldn't stand the place. The air smells moldy, cigar and trash everywhere, the place itself was terrible interms of cleanliness. We even put the chair to block the door because the double lock was broken. We looked for a cheap place to stay for 4nights but instead of saving some money it was the other way around. I'd rather spend more than to risk our safety and not have a peace of mind after a tiring day. And also when we arrived to the place we waited for 20 mins trying to get the staffs attention, i rung the doorbell multiple times and even tried to call there phone line.

At least one towel one foot mat for a room is not bad, they can do more better
