Categories

Cleanliness
5.5
Mixed to negative: multiple reports of grime, hair on the bathroom floor and strong smells (pot/meth) in some rooms, though a few guests reported rooms as clean.
Service
8.5
Mixed: kiosk check-in felt impersonal and staff were at times slow or inattentive (late TV fix, early room entry), but some guests reported friendly, helpful attendants when present.
Location
9.9
Positive: repeatedly described as convenient, close to highway/trails and well-lit; suitable for quick overnight stays despite an awkward parking layout.
Room Quality
7
Mixed: several guests found beds comfortable, AC quiet and rooms adequate for a night; others reported dampness, rusty water, rubbing bathroom doors and some uncomfortable beds.
Amenities
5.4
Underwhelming: no real breakfast (only coffee/tea), broken ice machine, intermittent TV issues and limited on-site services; kiosk-only check-in reduced perceived service.
Value for Money
8.5
Mixed but generally positive for many: several guests called it good value or the best price in the area for a simple overnight stay, though some felt price did not match condition.
Food and Beverage
4.5
Negative: guests expected breakfast but found none (only coffee and herbal/green tea, no black tea) and reported broken ice machine — overall poor F&B offering.
Overall Experience
9.9
Generally acceptable for short stays: many guests appreciated location, comfortable beds and good value for an overnight stay despite notable cleanliness and amenity issues that hurt longer-term appeal.

Minus a few things very comfortable
Pros:

It was extremely quiet, the gentleman who stayed on property was polite, friendly and helpful. Convenient location for us while we visited

Cons:

The shower leaked all over the floor in the bathroom. (Talked to gentleman about it and he apologized and said he ordered a better shower curtain). This would have been nice to know in advance after traveling for so long. The floors also need a good carpet cleaning. Walking barefoot from the shower to the bed shouldn’t end in dirty feet. Lastly we couldn’t open the window and enjoy fresh air due to the screen being not properly secured. It left room for unwanted bugs so left it alone.

Pros:

Les lits étaient quand même confortable

Cons:

La mauvaise odeur dans la chambre, le fait que l'appareil pour parler à distance avec un employé ne fonctionnait pas correctement et le prix qui selon moi était trop élevé pour la qualité

I have stayed here before & will again. Next time I will bring my own juice & fruit.
Pros:

Check in was fairly easy & my room was next to the lobby & entrance door. That was great for unloading & loading the car. The shower was comfortably hot & the fridge comfortably cold.

Cons:

I did expect some kind of breakfast besides coffee. I don't drink coffee so I was looking for juice. None to be had. Would've appreciated a piece of toast, a piece of fruit or a bowl of cereal.

Cons:

Woke up the next morning and opened our door for it to smell like burnt meth ... Yes I know the smell as I'm a recovering addict. And to say the least was not impressed. People up all night, walking around talking, tv blaring.
