We're looking at their suites for our stay in august. Looking for some feedback from anyone who's stayed there!

thanks
 
I stay here almost every time I go. The rates are cheap, the rooms are clean and you can't beat the location. The pool kinda sucks because it is indoors and smells funny. I would recommend it.
 
We've stayed here & the location can't be beat!! The rooms were spacious & clean. The beds were a bit hard, but most motel beds are (at least in my opinion).

The pool is inside & small & during the summer months was packed......we avoided it.

The breakfast is great for grabbing something for your walk to the park, but don't expect it to fill you up.

The parking is a bit of a nightmare. The lot is small & doesn't really accomidate larger vehicles....all it takes is one to set off a chain reaction of bad parking.

The price is great for what you get, but if you're looking for a bigger breakfast, plan on using the pool quite a bit or looking for a fancier room...then I'd say, look elsewhere. We would have no problem staying here again....but just not during the hot weather (we want to be able to swim).
 

If staying in the parlor suite I'd recommend not going when it's hot the ac is in the bedroom and there is a little hole in the wall between the rooms to cool the "livingroom".

It was January when we went and had to leave our door wide open for hours because it was soooooooooooo hot in the room! We found out our ac was not working and they had to swap out the whole unit. When it did work it was still warm in our room. The pool smells of chlorine...I wasn't sure I wanted my kids to swim in there because it was indoors and seemed like there was no ventillation.

Parking was a little bit difficult but manageable. We didn't leave too often so it wasn't so much of an issue.

I am not picky with hotels..but I think I've made up my mind that this would be a last resort and must be a great deal. I would bring flip flops or house slippers because the floor felt a little bit damp and grimey...I also wear flip flops in the shower. We got the parlor suite a for $79 and for the location and free continental breakfast it's a great deal. Also no matter what type of room you are allowed only one vehicle.

On the plus side the front desk was helpful, you can't beat the location and my sister who had the 2 br family suite love her room. It was very spacious and cooler in their room.
