No assurance of safe parking for our vehicle and belongings despite being informed prior to check in that there was secure parking. Very dirty, odour the minute you walk in the door. We did not even stay but instead went elsewhere to find safe and clean accommodations.

They need to clean up the cigarette buts and filth around the property. Scape the pealing paint and repaint. Realign concrete curbs. A very unloved motel. I have been to a number of Sandman motels and this will be my last.

Staff was great. It would have been nice if coffee was in the office. No cups in the office. No cream in the office. Our room smelled like urine. The chair really needed to be replaced. It was clean. Perhaps the outside could used some grooming and appeal.

Except for the room itself (which was surprisingly nice) the property is being left to deteriorate. The remains of the closed restaurant are an eyesore. The room doors don't close properly and the door locks are from the 50's. Thought the property was part of the "Sandman" franchise and it clearly is not (or shouldn't be).

Overnight stop

We were travelling to the coast for a training course and broke up the trip. Staff were great. Beds were comfortable. Not the fanciest but great for a one night stop over.

Building was starting to show signs of aging, looking to be in need of a make over. It was fine, nothing special, room was clean enough, door didn’t close up tight.

This is an old building in terrible shape. Exterior is very run down. Rooms have extremely old furniture and are dated, badly in need of an upgrade. Bed was not comfortable. I didn’t want to walk on the carpet in my bare feet. It’s a dump.

We thought Sandman had standards. When we looked online the pictures are nothing like the disgusting hotel we ended up with. Peeling wallpaper in places was fixed with staples to the wall. Duct tape used to cover a wall outlet, electrical is questionable at best. The ceiling had obviously had a previous leak. The bathroom had too many issues to even list. very disappointing

Very run down, old and dirty. Wallpaper peeling, light bulbs not working, carpet stained and dirty, terrible water pressure and broken shower head. Furniture is old and damaged. Looks NOTHING like the photos… Expedia posting and photos are fraud. Don’t know how properties get away with such false advertising. Walls are thin. Airconditioner is very loud and old. Terrible climate control.
