8/10 Very good

Reasonable price and great Indian food!

The Indian food at the restaurant on site was fantastic! The room is very old and not maintained. The pillows were flat, and the bed was okay for comfort. My friend and I had a great time anyway because we hadn’t seen each other in months, and we didn’t care that the room wasn’t perfect.

Hotel was good. Bed & pillows good. The place is a little outdated. Could use new carpeting as it is dirty. Check-in was good. Small room, but for the price good. Grounds are clean.

This place was very clean, the staff were very friendly and gave us idea for places to visit. The lights in the bathroom were flickering none stop and the tap in the sink was falling off if we were pushing to hard.
Andre, 1-night trip

2/10 Poor

Horrible communication. Didn’t meet obligations

I left a dive watch in the motel. I contacted them and they said they would mail it. Ten days later it still hasn’t arrived. So I called them. The person who answered the phone would keep interrupting. They said they preferred to that we arrange a courier to pick it up. In ten days they didn’t let me know that they didn’t mail it. And that they preferred that we have it picked up. He became very rude, began swearing, blaming health problems. He’s not the only person who works there. He should have let me know he couldn’t meet his obligations.

Gail Louise, 1-night trip

4/10 Fair

The room was dirty in places and smelled of stale cigarette smoke. My wife bought cleaning products to clean surfaces as well as Febreeze to make the room smell liveable. The shower curtain was dirty and stained. The beds were actually comfy. We stayed two out of three nights.

8/10 Very good

Property clean fresh paint my room. Bed good. Dripping sink but looks like once a plumber can deal it will rectified. Quiet area. Easy access. Seating outside in shade if needed is warmer months. Restaurant Looks to be good to eat at as well. No looking for a place to eat as attached. Recommend for a quick night stay. Friendly staff.
