    Pros +

    • It was located perfectly for my needs. There was a nice shopping center and train station close by. Uber was also available.Management was very accommodating and very pleasant!
    • a room at the side, upstairs was a great improvement as less road noise!
    • I liked everything. It was close to where I wanted to go and do.

    Cons -

    • The room was slightly dated but of great value. The management made up for any thing that was not awesome.
    • The traffic noise was to much for me. I didn't get much sleep.
    • The curtains did not completely stop the lights ( both day and night ). The couch was a bit old. The noise from traffic was also very noticeable.

    The room was spacious, have parking on site. Reception is open till 7pm. There are a few restaurants within walking distance.

    The curtains did not completely stop the lights ( both day and night ). The couch was a bit old. The noise from traffic was also very noticeable.

    Friendly staff, clean rooms

    Bed was beyond soft, could feel the springs. That mattress was way past its use by date.

    7LauraPosted on: 4-24-2025

    Clean and a good amount of room in the family room for the four of us!

    We unfortunately could hear the trains and highway traffic quite loudly from the main bedroom, the kids fortunately were in the main area so didn’t have the same road/train line noise.

    Proximity

    Noisy dated interior sink tap not working shower head broken

    8BrightPosted on: 4-9-2025

    Linda on the desk was friendly and most helpful. My dad lost his shaving brush and Linda (and her husband) went out of her way to help us retrieve it. The room was clean and comfortable.

    no bench space in the bathroom for toiletries. The door was locked but there was quite a bit of play/movement once locked. This didn't feel completely secure. However, the area felt safe.

    8TerryPosted on: 4-1-2025

    Basic accommodation but beautifully clean small bedroom and bathroom.

    Towels were clean but stained.

    7StephenPosted on: 3-31-2025

    Comfortable bed, good strong shower. However, it was quite close to the main road and railway line so was a bit noisy. Room was a bit old but comfortable. In our room the wifi was very weak.

    8NicolePosted on: 3-31-2025

    Centrally located, quiet even though directly on the highway, clean and comfortable.

    8GenevievePosted on: 3-17-2025

    Easy check in, friendly staff. Room was neat and clean

    Did not always replace towels when servicing the room

    10ProosPosted on: 3-3-2025

    Compact and very clean. Comfy bed and everything we needed.Recommended.

    8LynnePosted on: 2-15-2025

    Much better than I expected for a 3 star. Check in was easy, staff super friendly. The room was really clean, the bathroom not too outdated. Picked this motel as I attended a party at the local pub.

    On the highway so expect traffic noise

    10RoslynPosted on: 2-2-2025

    Loc action is convenient, staff friendly, facilities comfortable and clean.

    9PeterPosted on: 1-26-2025

    Conveniently located, clean and comfortable

    The noise from the trucks on the highway from about 4 am

    9RezellPosted on: 1-4-2025

    Proximity to where we needed to be

    Inflexibility of check out time even though there were still vacancies at the motel

    6ChristinePosted on: 12-21-2024

    comfortable bed and bathroom facilities, close to where I was visiting in Springwood

    Road noise and adjacent night lighting interrupted sleep

    7FrancisPosted on: 12-20-2024

    Well located on highway and handy to Springwood - small room but provided every thing needed for comfortable stay

    Access to and from highway a bit intimidating until you got to traffic flow

    8SarahPosted on: 11-17-2024

    Convenient location, and room availability. Happy to have got the bottom floor so no stairs. Spacious room. Room was good temperature. Tidy and secured. Plenty of spare pillows and blankets.

    Beds were a bit hard, and sink tap would not go hot. Had tap on for a few minutes and still no hot water came from the bathroom sink.
