Guest Reviews
- Cynthia (6/5): - Comfortable beds
- Srisudha (2/5): - This was by far the worst hotel experience I’ve had in Canada. The blanket provided was made from the thinnest material possible, and I was cold throughout the night, which eventually made me sick. The curtains were practically transparent, allowing light from outside to flood the room all night long.
The overall condition of the room was poor—everything felt broken or poorly maintained. Initially, the staff almost charged me for another guest’s booking, which I had to point out and get corrected. Then, I was mistakenly given a used room, which only got changed after I complained.
To make matters worse, I could clearly hear conversations from the neighbouring room throughout the night, making it nearly impossible to sleep.
- Brooke (10/5): - It was amazing stay
- Jinny (2/5): - No room key was provided.
- Young Hwan (8/5): No towel - Everything is ok but there is no towel. That made me so embarrassed.
- William (2/5): - I would be embarrassed to even have this property listed on your website. It was on safe the windows were broken out doors torn off garbage piled up outside of the building. We did not check in, it was not safe! I hope that you did not allow any payment for this, I did email them immediately. I travel extensively and this was the first time I was not even willing to get out of my vehicle.
- Ryan (2/5): - Was messy and probably not going back again because of it
- Yahya (2/5): - Bad , doesn't worth the money
- Trevor (2/5): - Room 11 needs to be turned to a storage room.
- Pinky (2/5): - The room smelled of cigarette smoke, there were dead bugs everywhere in the room. I could not sleep and breath properly as the smoke affected my breathing. They gave me another room. It still had the very same issues. As my breathing got worse due to cigarette smoke in the room, I decided to leave the motel because my health was badly compromised. I left 2 days before the check out date. They said they can change the room, I reminded them that they already did that twice and it did not work. They did not give a refund even though the issue was theirs (health and safety issue). I want all my money back and I need to report this matter because now I am sick from the cigarette smoke.
- Curtis (2/5): Better off sleeping in your car. - This place ahould be condemned. Dirty walls, doors, carpets. AC barely worked and the bathroom had a bar of soap from the last guest. There were no towels in the room and no tv in the room. DO NOT STAY HERE.
- Kevin (2/5): - Place was really bad had bed bugs
- Katerina (2/5): - I booked two rooms, arrived and they say there is only one available. I had elderly person and small child with me and one of my rooms were given away. The one available had one bed only. It is absolutely unprofessional. We could not find any room in surrounding area and had to drive 4 hrs back home because we had no choice. Please do not stay there.
- Tawfique (2/5): - Expedia should not have this place listed as an option for it members. This place has gone so downhill in last one year which is unimaginable. stay away please!
- Tawfique (2/5): - Unclean, stinky and moldy, we got sick staying here. We should have just left my bad that I didn't. Just a terrible please, I will never book this place again and please do yourself a favor by staying away.
- Marcos (10/5): - Staff were the best!
- Young Hwan (6/5): So so - Clerk was very gentle and smiling. But when i entered the room, i found there was no bath towels and bath tub and sink weren't cleaned.
- Vikram (2/5): - The property is in real bad shape
- DIPAK (2/5): - Not recommended
- Temiloluwa (2/5): - The room had a very horrible smell. The duvets were old, floors not cleaned and the washroom had human hairs all over.
Ended up not taking the room, we got refunded the money and left immediate.
- Suzanne (2/5): Bad business - First off my room was 2 hours late for check in... No towels or wash clothes. No TV! Kept being promised one.. Wrong room!
- Nigel (6/5): - Staff was friendly and helpful. Room was good for the price,...I would back again.
- Verified traveler (2/5): - The place was disgusting.
- Ashley (2/5): - There was blood and nail polish stains all of the sheets as well as the towels. There’s a homeless population as well as all their litter near the buildings. Not a safe location. It’s worth to pay the extra 20-40$ for a nice hotel! If you wanna cheap out and come here bring your own bedding and towels! The heating doesn’t work so be careful with how you pack.
- Matthew (2/5): - Worst place I’ve ever stayed. Blood stain on mattress recently washed but not totally dry, causing sheets to be wet. No pillow cases and dirty stained pillows. Dirty towels, dirty floors (don’t look under beds!), just dirty. Noisy music till 1am from monthly rentals. Save yourself a $100 and sleep in your car!
- khalid (4/5): - NOTHING WAS UNIQUE
- Chinelo (8/5): Satisfactory - Satisfactory. We arrived very late and they still received us. It was clean but they had so many cigarettes in the cabinet. The heat and AC were great. For the price and a room with two beds that contained our family of 4, I would say it was worth it.
- Matthew (4/5): - Not somewhere I would ever stay again.
- Luay (2/5): - No good motel
- Farouq (8/5): - The room was okay
- Susan (4/5): - I've been coming to this motel for years and it's always been clean. Four months ago ownership changed and the standards have fallen terribly. It was dirty with visible dirt in the bathroom (tub and toilet), on the walls and the smoke detectors was not on the wall but laying on the counter. And my non-smoking room was clearly smoked in. I will not be returning.
- Philip (2/5): - We arrived at the motel, the owner Mian said he did not have our booking from Expedia and did not have a room for us. Not only did I have a confirmed booking through EpediaI but I had called the motel the day before and confirmed my booking with a staff member.
Mian was disinterested with my complaint, we were left high and dry without a place to stay.
.
- Tak Yin (2/5): - Was told that my booking on Expedia was not "confirmed" and that the hotel was sold out for the night and they don't have any room for my and my family. I am completely lost for words. This is unbelievable. It's a long weekend and every other place in town has no rooms available for the night. I don't even know where I'm supposed to stay as I just drove 4 hours to get here. I would appreciate a response to my review please and thank you.
- Bhavin (4/5): - Average
- S (8/5): - Good for the price
- Jenn (2/5): - When we came there, it seems like the washroom wasn’t cleaned, the toilet tissue were already half used, and no kitchen or microwave. The bathroom stinks!
- ming (4/5): - Too hot
- Verified traveler (2/5): - Il faisait tellement chaud dans la chambre que c’était impossible de dormir. Le climatiseur faisait tellement de bruit que j’avais l’impression d’être coucher sous un camion en marche. Ça produisait plus de chaleur que de fraicheur. Impossible de dormir l’aire était suffoquant et puait la cigarette.
J’ai quitté à 00h30-45
- Phil (2/5): - We didn’t stay I lost 1/2 my money but there was no way I was going to stay there, completely unacceptable you really should go to these places before you advertise for them I’m not sure if I can use your web site going forward
- Pater (10/5): - Clean
- frank (2/5): - I payed for 2 days and nights only stayed 1 nightgot up to have a shower no hot water it was terrible i left and came home i did not like it at all so the got full payment for a 2 night stay i only stayed 1 night never again im very disappointed
- Jamie (6/5): - It was ok
- MATTHEW (2/5): -
Situated across the street from oil storage tanks and very close to an abandoned cement yard where homeless people hang out. Also the boarded up windows were not a positive
Luckily we were able to find a room somewhere else.
This property is nothing like it’s advertised.
- Will (2/5): - The property is in such bad shape it should be condemned by the city. There is mould everywhere.
- Stephanie (2/5): - The property is a dump that i would say looks like a rent by the hour. Upon check in the man checking me in was looking at me like i was from outer space. Then eyeballed my son like he was a criminal and proceeded to act like a parent scolding a child, to not be loud there are neighbours and no smoking. He was rude and should not be in customer service. He didnt even know i had a room booked so i didnt get the room type i wanted and i had to fight for the travelocity price. He made me put an additional $100 deposit that i was unaware of. I will never support this business again and never recommend
- Richard (8/5): - Clean upgraded room. Would have liked a mirror in the bathroom and a place to hang clothes. Fridge and microwave were spotlessly clean. Would stay here again. Convenient drive to downtown.
- Peter (8/5): - A typical small motel. A little old but well maintained and clean. No unpleasant surprises. Good for a quick shut-eye before hitting the road in the morning.
- Swarna (8/5): - True value for what I paid.
- Dhriti (2/5): - Ac was not working properly, Tv was not working. Blanket was dirty. No proper lightning in the room. Dirty and smelly rooms. Old building
- Michelle (2/5): Horrible service - Reservations made online … very hard time at office when arrived . Lady was rude and difficult. The only good thing was the shower.
- Verified traveler (6/5): - Poor customer service.
- Dylann (6/5): - Poor customer service.
- Alexander (6/5): - It was cheap for a reason. The bed was comfortable, other than that, the room was not great. I was looking for a cheap motel to crash then continue on my journey. It fulfilled my expectations.
- telly (10/5): - Nice hotel
- Gennady (4/5): -
- Arslan (2/5): Rude staff - They didn’t not clean room in 4 days not room service every day they didn’t provide shop shampoo etc
- Terry (8/5): - Front office staff a little rude. We stayed during a move and the car was packed and they kept looking at the car and asking if we were planning on putting everything in the room. We said no we are in the middle of a move and we bring in what we need and they just kept watching us like we were up to something
- Mark (10/5): - A remarkably quiet and good stay for low
Price - I would stay again and great for those on a budget
- Robert (6/5): - it was clean looked renovated
- Ameera (10/5): - Great price, nice place to take your rest in
- ming (8/5): - ok
- Verified traveler (8/5): Clean and comfortable - Clean and comfortable room. Took several minutes to receive a response at check-in and finally had to call on the phone but otherwise a lovely stay. Staff did apologize for the delay checking in.
- Upkar (8/5): - Not bad in that price .
- Atrayew (8/5): - This motel has a nice homey vibe to it however the staff are extremely lazy and towels are rarely even re stocked and no shampoo or shower gel whatsover. Its meh good for work related reasons but not so kuch vacations.
- Verified traveler (8/5): - The place is in a bad part of town, from the outside it doesn't look so great but it was super clean, bed very comfortable lots of hot water. I would have liked it better if there had been a deadbolt on the door . It was a cheap, clean, quiet place to spend the night
- Hena (8/5): - Nice cozy affordable place to stay
- Verified traveler (2/5): - Checking in, the lady was rude and unwelcoming. I paid using my debit card and she told me it was declined which I was confused to why that was as I had enough funds on it. I used my other card and it worked. I checked my bank statement a couple days later and the transaction DID go through on the other card too, so I was charged twice. For that price I could have stayed somewhere decent.
First thought when walking in the room was it smells musty, door has no deadbolt, screen door has no glass. very outdated, no coffee maker/shampoo, phone, wasn’t given the wifi password. My blanket had old blood stains on it. Water takes a while to heat up. overall it is in a sketchy area. Normally wouldn’t leave a bad review but what I received for being charged twice was definitely unsatisfactory.
- Andrew (10/5): Nice - Nice clean room, hot shower, quiet and relaxing
- Andrew (10/5): Nice quiet stay - Nice clean overnight stay...comfortable bed..nice hot shower..fridge and microwave...freindly staff
- Verified traveler (2/5): - I had to buy my own heater during the first day of my stay the temps were -15 C.
- Verified traveler (4/5): - Rude customer service. The room feels more like a store room with 90’s paint and bed sheets. No soap or shampoo provided. Had to ask for soap to wash hands even during this covid thing. The TV was old CRT tube tv and the picture didn’t work. AC was near the bathroom wall no air came to bed. Disappointing experience overall.
- Verified traveler (6/5): - You get what you pay for, it's a decent motel. It's clean, cheap, good for a cheap and short stay. Was charged more than what I booked on Expedia, and the staff weren't very pleasant or helpful. Also, the $100 deposit was not specified anywhere on my booking before we got there. Overall though, it was fine for what we wanted and were expecting.
- Verified traveler (4/5): - The room was very clean, including the bathroom.
The woman at reception, probably the owner, was very unfriendly and certainly not welcoming. There were 2 very tiny, flat pillows available that would have been perfect for toddlers but not 2 adults. A blanket on the bed would also have been appreciated in the cool room. The 2 towels provided were barely sufficient & 1 at the sink would have been nice.
- Alice (6/5): - nice old style family motel. Cleanliness was good. Needs updating at least furniture wise. Staff could not find my reservation. Nicely charged me what I had been told it would be by expedia booking. All in all, not a bad stay, but, not great either.
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Its clean and good for the price. Nice people too.
- Verified traveler (2/5): - I paid using my credit card and on this site to book a room and he refused me with no explaination at all and told me he didnt habe to tell me a reason. And i didnt get a refund from this site for the amount.
- DAVID (8/5): Comfortable Two Night Sleep - The two nights I stayed were very nice. The room was recently renovated, and looked good. I enjoyed a comfortable sleep each night. I would certainly stay here again. Thank you.
- Verified traveler (8/5): - Good value for money, near river, near university, old property just good for short stay, ok value for money
- Verified traveler (6/5): - The design & condition of the plumbing is unsatisfactory. Not enough water came out from the hot water faucet.
- Sam (8/5): - I liked that the property is kept clean both inside and outside.
- Donald (2/5): Do Not Go Here - I arrived at 10:30pm Room was not ready and I was told to come back in an hour. I refused and I went somewhere else
I have to submit a rating to post this review
Overall = Sucked
Service = Extremely Sucked
Everything else - I have no idea, cause I did not stay, Giving them a bad review as well. only because they are asking me to review it
- Verified traveler (8/5): - Fair price.the front door screaning was torn but overall good value
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Charming motel, great value. Would stay there again.
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Front office staff are friendly. Rooms are surprisingly very new and clean. Very good value here!
- Sarbjit Singh (2/5): Will never stay in such place . - Checked the room , smelling smoke ash . Did not stay as I could not withstand the condition of the room . But the lady (Incharge ) charged me the money ( paid in cash ).
- Jeremy (4/5): - No shampoo small towels room is very cold Internet said smoking rooms no smoking
- Verified traveler (8/5): Great stay! - Only issue was that you need to run the hot water for a few minutes before your shower or bath to get any
- CindyJK (6/5): - I was disappointed that there wasn't a bible in the room. It took a l o n g time to get hot water. No towel rack in bathroom. Not enough towels. Most motels/hotels gives 3 sets of towels for 2 people. There was only a door handle lock on the door. Needed another lock/chain. Out dated. Overall was clean enough and what you would expected for the price, which was good.
- Verified traveler (2/5): - I had a room booked and when I got there I was denied and had to find another motel
- lucky (2/5): - Worst motel i have ever visited in my life. Despite having advance confirmation of booking, I was told that they could not find any booking under my name, just to save commision
- Armando (8/5): - Ok stay, renovated rooms nice and clean. No frills, comfortable room.
- Milo (2/5): Did not stay!!! - When we arrived with our confirmation, we were told there was a $100 CASH only deposit required and a credit card deposit as well as our night's stay. Staff was very rude and ignorant to myself and my husband when we told them we did not have the cash and they could charge the credit card for the deposits. We cancelled the reservation and went to the Ambassador Motel on Huron Church Road. Got our room for no deposit and less than Traveller's Choice. Fantastic room and since we are not from the area, the staff called us a cab to take to our event.
- Verified traveler (10/5): - The traveller's choice motel is a really old school motor lodge but one that'd i'd stay at anytime. It's really well maintained and extremely clean and well maintained. My only comment is that they'd might want to upgrade the air conditioning system but otherwise, it was great.
- Verified traveler (6/5): - This hotel is bare bones minimal. Good thing we are just staying one night. Clean but just a bed. No microwave. No coffee machine.
Location was a bit sketchy
- Verified traveler (4/5): Needs Work - Just a bit of work and a change in attitude from the staff might elevate this place's status, but as of now it would be avoided.
- DANFENG (8/5): Good enough motel! - Just one night stay. Economic motel. Clean, comfort and quiet. Parking and Internet is good! Don't compare with 5 star hotel. This is Motel. Good enough for your budget!
- Verified traveler (8/5): Good stay - Stay was good overall but hot water didn’t work
- Verified traveler (8/5): - good motel for travelers in windsor
- Verified traveler (6/5): Hotel a place to sleep for the night - I just wanted a place to sleep for the night near to my friends home. The hot water in the shower takes some time to get to you from the boiler for the rooms. I had to turn the heat on when I got there as room was warm enough to keep the pipes from freezing. It has a mini fridge, and TV that is all. As I said I just wanted a place to sleep so that is what I paid for.
- ZED (8/5): - Very comfortable and warm place. I had a nice stay here : )
