Boutique Motel

This is a motel and is excellent for the type of property. Ample parking, decent size rooms and super friendly staff. The motel supplies plush bathrobes, renovated bathrooms (bathtub replaced with large shower), fridge, coffee maker, iron & ironing board and ear plugs. If you are on the ground floor rooms, you can hear the people in the room above walking or moving chairs but only during waking hours. This did not bother us but it may others. Very pleasant accommodation for a motel. Very convenient location for my early morning appointment at the Foothills hospital.
