    The walls were very thin, so you could easily hear the people in the next room. The proximity to the highway and train yards did create noise too.

    The proprietor upgraded us to a room with a kitchen and sitting room with a couch. The room had a fan and air conditioner, so we were comfortable despite the heat outside.

    A little loud on the main road, but not too bad. Had a 2 burner stove top, but no oven- which we didn't need, but maybe if we were staying longer.

    We were greeted by the same lady/owner as mentioned in other reviews, so friendly and cute office! Her doggo, Bella also greeted us. Our room was in the back building and it was super nice! It was clean, super cute, and had all the things we needed. The beds were comfy with soft sheets. We loved the homey feel with the soft and fluffy towels and all the kitchen things we needed. We also loved the availability of the grill, we grilled our dinner and ate outside while chatting with the neighbors. TV with lots of channels too. Close to all the things im Cranbrook, we will definitely come back!

    The walls are paper thin, so you can hear EVERY SINGLE SOUND that the people in the room beside make. I mean EVERYTHING.

    The front desk/owner woman was friendly. Price is affordable and the room was fairly clean. A few cobwebs etc but it has that cabin vibe. Shower was nice and hot.

    Can be loud at times as it’s directly off the highway and a motorcycle shop next door. The bbq outside our room did not have propane.

    Went for a weekend golf trip booked two rooms. The location is close to all town amenities, there is a courtyard with bbq, fire pit and patio tables to have dinner. Room we stayed in is apartment-like, we had enough space for 2 friends. Kitchen all necessary cutlery, plates, and glasses etc. to cook with.

    It's pretty hard to find a "didn't like", but if I have say.... The bathtub mat was pretty grungy.

    Surprisdingly this was a wonderful spot, and certainly great value. When we first saw the site we hesitated. It is an older style motel situated between industrial properties. I asked to see the room, and was pleasantly surprised. The room was in a Panabode log building, and was more like a cottage, with a small dining table, and a kitchenette. The bed was comfortable, everything was clean.

    Overpriced, old blankets and pillows, goose crap all over the parking lot, needs a major renovation. A $50-60 dollar motel at best

    Not much to like, just a place to sleep. Gravel parking, old, old place. Host was nice

    The place is just way too old, needs to be either updated or demolished. Could literally hear everything next door, not good. Poor facility, needs attention badly.

    The flexibility of being able to check in early. The young lady went out of her way to have a room ready for me as I arrived early, greatly appreciated.

    The area outside the motel room is industrial/storage. Nothing outside the room. No real walkabout .

    An old motel that shows its age. Clean and comfortable. The surrounding grounds are very industrial. Nothing outside the room. Kitchenette sofa.
