It is very old and not kept up. The room smelled musty and nasty. No mattress pad on the beds. Just a sheet on the mattress. Beds not comfortable. I would not stay here again.

Staff and location are excellent but the rooms terrible. Owners need to put money back into the property starting with new flooring and beds. Bathroom was made for tiny people, if you're obese or very tall you'll have major problems doing anything

The area around the property was very nice. Lots of shopping and Dining options. The Motel itself was in bad shape. Inside the motel room some of the wood was coming off the walls. Had to return our towels from Our bathroom so they could wash them and we could have them again. Breakfast provided was not very good.

As a seasoned traveler I can call this hotel one of the worst...sheets on one bed were stained with blood or mold...told staff and nothing was done...it's a shame to have to pay for a place like this. Expedia would do itself a favor by removing it from their list. Traveler beware!

The people running this establishment are the most accommodating people I’ve encountered in my two week trip from Saskatoon to Niagara Falls to Sturgis to home. Lots of places we’ve stayed at were not so. They went out of their way to make sure we got the room that met our needs.

This place had the worst mattress, the shower was so small you kept shutting it off with your arm. The floor itself was sloped so yiu felt like you were on a hill. And the road noise was terrible
