Guest Reviews

• eric (4/5): - Ok for basic overnight economical stay. Owner was polite and helpful. Fridge & micro.
• tony (2/5): - No staff around.
• EHSAN (6/5): - It was quite ok n clean n less expensive. The mattress needs to be changed as I couldn't sleep the whole night. May some water bottles in the fridge would have been nice.
• Verified traveler (8/5): - The walls in the bathroom need a paint job. The windows need cleaning to give the motel a better appearancce.
• Verified traveler (8/5): - Management was Wonderful.
• Volker (2/5): terribly stinky room full of pets hair - Pet hair was everywhere on the bedding. The stench in the room was unbearable. Did someone die in there and was only found 4 weeks later? Or is this room a cigar club on other days? I can't describe it. But it was terrible. Everything is loose, worn out, ramshackle.
• Verified traveler (2/5): - Absolutely nothing, the scariest place I have ever been in my life.they don’t wash the sheets.
• Verified traveler (8/5): - Easy to get to, friendly check in Staff. Room smelled clean when walked in, needs a good painting but overall meets my needs.
• Nicole (6/5): - Our room itself was clean and updated nicely, but the towels were mismatched, old and ragged. One even had tar or something caked into it, but you the TV/satellite was new, as was the bedding and flooring. The outside needs tome TLC & clean up, and there were regular tenants in several rooms that had large dogs roaming around, so it was a bit nerve-wracking for someone who is afraid of dogs. Owner was SUPER friendly and helpful though.
• Jim (4/5): - it was dirty and in disrepair.........................
• Jean-Marie (8/5): Good basic motel - This is a basic motel on the way north. We stayed two nights and the bed was very comfortable. The room had basic amenities which included a fridge and microwave. It was clean and functional. For a place directly on a highway (regional highway), it was quite quiet. The owners care about their establishment and their guests. We would recommend this place.
• Akhtar (4/5): - There was a separate entrance in the room and parking was in front of the room which was great. Availability of 2 queen beds was nice but the mattresses were sounding cho cho cho. Cleaning was unsatisfactory. And there was shortage of staff. Microwave, small fridge and tv was there in the room.
• Verified traveler (6/5): - Overall it was an average experience. It seems like they do not have a spare mattress sheet with them because the one that I slept on was totally dusty and they did nothing on it. But still nothing can expect from such a rural area.
• Verified traveler (10/5): - Great front desk service and nice clean room, and will stay again when in the area. thank you
• ANA CARINA (10/5): Clean and Nice - low cost, good conditions, clean and really friendly.
• Dorothy (8/5): - Room was clean, bed was comfortable, air conditioner worked good a little noisy but never kept me awake. No towels in bathroom and bath mat had brown stains on it. Water pressure in shower was amazing. Bathroom needs to be updated a vanity to lay your things on, it only had a basin sink. Nothing in bathroom to put towel on had to put everything on floor.
• Nick (10/5): - Pretty good spot. Room was clean. No issues with the water temperature either. Would stay again.
• Nina (6/5): - As soon as I entered the room, you can smell the chemical coming from the washroom
• Rob (2/5): - At first we got to the motel walked through a foot of snow to get to the office to check in. Got to the room found the bedspreads stained and the poor condition of the paint in the whole room. There were 2 ardox nails to hang our coats. The grouting in the tile was deplorable. The toilet paper was a piece of wire bent to hold the roll and hung on another ardox nail.
• Verified traveler (2/5): - There is no sounds proofing. I was kept awake until 3:30am by slamming doors and loud voices outside. By far the worst experience I've had at a motel.
• Verified traveler (6/5): - Staff was friendly. And hot water was great would make a few changes
• Verified traveler (6/5): - The room was reasonably clean, however, there was absolutely no water pressure in the bathroom sink. The top blanket was badly stained. It's ok for a place to stay for 1 night.
• Shawn (6/5): Old Motels needs renovating! - The owner of this motel is very courteous and accommodating but that only goes so far. Being completely honest the place needs a good thorough cleaning and some renovations. An older place such as this needs to be clean that's priority number one. Guests can overlook old decor etc. But the room needs to be clean. Our room was not. Plus there were cigarette butts just outside our room door. The screen door has about a 4 cm gap at the bottom to allow vermin to crawl into your room. Broken fan in the bathroom and cable TV cord through the window. There's no excuse for these things. There all fixable at a nominal cost tobthe owner and it will make guests interested in returning. I for my part will nit return again.
• Verified traveler (8/5): - Friendly, attentive staff. Clean, simple rooms with fresh linens. Comfortable beds. Issue with window in room was tended to promptly. Good price, stayed for one night.
• Diane (4/5): - This wasn’t the absolute worst motel I been too however it was far from being anything great. As soon as I opened my room door I was blasted with a heavy heavy scent of Lysol cleaner , I asked about it and to switch rooms and the girl told me: no they are all sprayed like that when they are cleaned, but there was hair all over the bathroom floor so it didn’t look like it was cleaned very well... There was no shelves in my room! I had to hang bags on nails and random hooks that were on the wall! The garbage/recycling, fridge and microwave were all in the closet area which is an odd place for it , I don’t want my clothing hung to smell like food and garbage. The bathroom also had no shelf or counter top space to put anything down , there is a rack placed very high up towards the ceiling which I had to stand on a stool to reach for the towels. My curtains fell down and I can see they didn’t use plugs for the screws in the dry wall so that’s why they fell so easily. Beds & pillows were not very comfortable. However the price was only 80$ and on a side note I had a person staying beside me with a pitbul who barley kept it on a leash and told me the dog was unpredictable with children so that was a bit scary! And to top it off I had a flat tire in the morning leaving (was probably something I ran over) but didn’t help my already troubled stay.
• Verified traveler (10/5): - Very clean and spacious. Good value for sure. Would recommend this place highly.
• Amanda (6/5): Not bad for the price - Not a bad deal for the price but definitely nothing fancy. The room was pretty clean overall but the towel in the bathroom was stained. We also waited for 20 minutes to checkin because no one was in the office. Overall would recommend if you just need a place to stay for the night and nothing more.
• Verified traveler (8/5): Nice people, convenient. - Pros: The hotel owner was extremely nice and accommodating. The king size bed was nice! I thought the mattress was comfy. Plus, convenient location for our particular trip. Cons: The cleanliness... The towels were stained and smelled.. The blanket was not the cleanest.. Hair on the floor.. Grime on the windowsill.. and the filter on the AC desperately needs cleaned. It made the room smell really funky. All in all though.. Decent price, and served it's purpose!
• Jane (8/5): No Frills but Comfortable and a Great Price - If you're looking for fancy lotions in the bath and a mint on your pillow, you're not going to find it here BUT the room was clean, the beds and pillows were more comfortable than the ones I've had in much more expensive hotels. The TV worked and offered lots of viewing choices and the WiFi worked as well as it seems to in any hotel. The staff were nice as were the other patrons. The motel itself reminds me of the kind of roadside motels we used to stay in when I was a kid - no phone (why would you need one when EVERYBODY has cell service these days), no pool (although they DO welcome pets) but if you're just looking for a place to sleep for the night and not a fancy spa, it does the job just fine. They do ask you to pay the bill on check-in, but it was preauthorized through the booking agency, and many hotels I've stayed at have the credit card company pre-authorize a reversible security deposit. Since I didn't plan to skip out on the bill, I didn't see that as an issue. The biggest advantage, the next most inexpensive hotel in the area as 2.5 times the price I paid and prices ranged up to 6x the price.
• Takuji (6/5): I just stayed - I just wanted to stay one night. Therefore, I satisfied with my stay some extend.
• Nobie (10/5): - Location was very nice and the staff were very friendly
• Verified traveler (10/5): - Everything else was good but the lock of room's door wasn't working properly.
• Maleha (6/5): Not Nice Not Clean - The washrooms are rusty, the shower curtain was very dirty, there were ants everywhere, all over the floor. For the price it was a terrible experience. Do not recommend. The front desk service was not great, it was unclear and they didn't give us the wifi.
• Verified traveler (4/5): - check in was cordial. room was dirty, old, run down. The bed skirts had not been washed in some time & were clearly soiled.
• Verified traveler (2/5): - This was the worst motel experience I’ve ever had.
• Verified traveler (4/5): - We had a snow storm and the property wasn’t cleaned. Couldn’t park the car in front of our door.
• Verified traveler (10/5): - very friendly staff and clean rooms. would recommend to anyone looking for somewhere to crash for a night
• Verified traveler (4/5): Bates motel - There was no one present to assist with check in and the phone number went to voicemail. The room, despite just being cleaned, had a large wad of used Kleenex under the nightstand, beer tabs and a gob of hair in the sink, and I’m not sure when behind the fridge was cleaned. The toilet seat shifted as you sat down and although there was a rust stained tub, there was no stopper even if you wanted to have a bath. There was a strip of wood with screws sticking out on the floor next to the bed and the smoke detector was falling off. Otherwise was a nice place. Be warned though- you do hear constant highway noise.
• Daniel (4/5): - they cleaned the room once in 2 weeks, lack of coffe, did not make room Everyday, neither for towel. the Wifi was not good either
• Alex (10/5): - Although the address is a little difficult to find when coming from out of town, I would stay here 4739363 times over again. I can’t remember the name of the owner/manager off the top of my head but he was amazing! So kind to a stressed out young lady (me), offering all the help he could including offering up HIMSELF to pick us up later from a wedding in case we had any cab issues. He went so above and beyond. Along with the service, the room was gorgeous. Super clean, super comfy. 10/10 stars, A+, however you want to rank them. Skyview made my weekend so great.
• Verified traveler (10/5): - Staff was friendly and personable. The room was clean and quiet throughout the night.
• Matt (8/5): - Nice room pleassnt staff. Neighbors were a vit loud though.
• Kassy (4/5): - The woman at the desk was very friendly. Though dusty the room looked newly renovated and was comfortable. However the person next to us had loud music going (even after the woman at the desk asked him to turn it down) that continued late into the night. We had a fitness event the next day and weren't able to get a restful sleep
• Tammy (10/5): our stay - very enjoyable. very clean rooms.
• Verified traveler (8/5): - Very friendly and helpful owner. The room is basic and very clean.
• Verified traveler (8/5): - The outside looks in rough shape with junk hanging around. An old tractor sits with refuse in a bucket. Old sterl poles lying around the ground. Hiwever the rooms are modern and very clean. The owner is friendly and helpful.
• Verified traveler (10/5): - Gentlemen that checked me in was very friendly. We had a room with a King bed and the room looked exactly like the photo and was clean and comfortable. The outside of the Motel did not do justice to the room as it is in need of some TLC.
• Arash Reza (8/5): - Clean room with brand new bathroom. Better than we expected for this price.
• Henri (10/5): - Clean Faclity Finishes and paint sre new but rough...however clean and functional
• Basil (10/5): - Very clean and quiet place. Close to highway. It was bit hard to find however the staff was available to help 24*7.
