Enormous King+ bed plus a single. Parking at the door. Nice little outdoor area with river/lake view + table and chairs. Only negative is the exhaust fan in the bathroom sounds scarily past its use by date.

Great property in a prime location; walk out the door and you are in a very pretty part of Lakes. Sleep quality was good. Staff were highly accommodating and friendly. The place was immaculate in the rooms and the exterior. Only downside was the furniture needs updating; this is minor. But excellent overall. I feel like this property has got a keen eye on making guests feel comfortable. Would stay again.

We were pleasantly surprised by the condition of the property, as we had expected a somewhat rundown motel—but it turned out to be much better than anticipated. The room felt quite new and well-maintained, and the bathroom was impressively spacious—larger than those in many motels or even some 4-star hotels. The only downsides during our stay were the presence of some rowdy neighbours and a few unruly children running along the walkway, which disrupted the otherwise peaceful atmosphere. Additionally, the person at reception (possibly the owner) could benefit from being a bit more warm and welcoming when interacting with guests on the phone, in particular. A friendlier approach and improved customer service could really enhance the overall experience.
