The property overall was fine. The room was very clean and spacious. The parking was not the greatest and some of the people were tenants of the property, not guests.

Very tired looking. Room was not refreshed on second day. Had to go to the desk to get fresh towels. No replacement toilet roll. Very very noisy neighbours until 3 am both evenings. Overpriced for the standard

Basic motel just off Hwy 17. Use GPS to locate as it is hiding behind Catalina Motel. No carpet in main room, so take off shoes ASAP otherwise you get grit all over the room. Metro and Stacked pancake house nearby. Parking lot needs to be repaved as it has uneven surfaces. Clean room and bathroom. Toilet requires holding the flusher down a long time.

Bedroom and bath were spotlessly clean. Bed and bath linens very nice. Puffy pillows. Freshly painted walls. Basic amenities provided in the room ( bar fridge, coffee maker, mirror, hangers). However, the property needs a face lift. Doors, vanity & baseboards need to be replaced - all in run down condition. We stayed in unit 11 and it smelled musty. Hotels/ motels in SSM are expensive but paying 156.00 for this place was too much. We would not stay here again. Motel is in a good location … lots of restaurant choices nearby as well as gas stations and Tim’s and Starbucks.

Pleasantly surprised
When we originally pulled up ....things looked a bit dicey and we were originally concerned. People were sitting outside rooms smoking, drinking and it appeared they may live there. However...we were extremely pleased with our stay. The rooms (although not fancy) were exceptionally clean (and i really looked). The beds, pillows, linens and towels were very comfortable. Shower was excellent. We did not hear a peep from any neighbours. Overall fantastic!

When pulling up to the hotel I was hesitant as it honestly didn’t look like it was kept up. But we tried it anyway and the room was absolutely immaculate…the grout in tile around Bath/shower was perfectly white, no dust or dirt anywhere. Not the fanciest place but for the value I’d return. Bed was comfy and linens and pillows great. We only needed a place to sleep and refresh for the next mornings travel and it met our needs. I’ve been to far more expensive hotel/motels that weren’t nearly as clean or comfy.

The property is older but the rooms have been updated and are extremely clean. It is on a very busy road, however there are shops and restaurants within walking distance. We have stayed there before and probably will again.

This place is perfectly fine. It’s an old style motel where you park in front of your room. The room was clean and tidy, which is really all you should expect from a place like this. We stayed one night while passing through town. Would stay there again.
