booking with this hotel came with a couple of surprises, the most upsetting one was calling in to ask what facilities they had, hearing of the sauna was the biggest perk; then after booking and arriving at the hotel come to find that the sauna was closed- somewhat disappointing (considering the reviews on the pool at Super 8 were somewhat "cringy") then upon arriving in the room the TV didn't work. So overall the kids were rather disappointed, therefore so was I. And in the past one booking with services online paying with my credit card meant not having to pay deposit, I don't know if that's a common thing for people or not but it kind of came as a shock to me that it didn't state anything about it nor was anything previously mentioned when I had called the hotel before booking. Other then those minor issues..... it was a place to sleep....

Found the place quite run down. Clean enough but room smelled of stale smoke. Bathroom safety rail loose. Not enough counter space in bathroom. Needs updating very badly.

If i could give 0 stars I absolutely would. The hotel is disgusting and smells of old musty smoke. Like your 86 year old chainsmoker unkle stayed in the room for 6 years before you got there. It made it hard to even sleep and my only thought the whole time was omg... if it smells this bad how is the cleanliness of it ... that being said it was 1am and myself and my guy were exhausted. So we slept for a couple hours. Now. Let's have a shower OK.... heres another fun part. The tiles in the shower are kept in with pin nails which means if I pulled one off id almost bet there is so much black mold underneath. So, turn on the water all the way hot to warm it up. No hot water...5 mins later still no hot water to be spoken of. The sink was full of gunk and around the taps was filthy. I owned a housekeeping buisness so this is a non negotiable for me. I know what clean is and in any other hotel I've stayed at they seem to as well. DO NOT RENT A ROOM HERE EVER. THIS PLACE NEEDS AN ENTIRE REMODEL AND NEW FURNISHINGS ABSOLUTELY THE WORST HOTEL IVE EVER STAYED IN. NEVER AGAIN

Had decent wifi, but no hot water. I informed staff the hot water was not working, and they said maintinance would fix it, but nothing was done. Included breakfast is supposedly served until 9am, but I went to the lobby at 9:02am and there was no evidence food had ever been served there. I'm lucky Wal Mart was 1.2km away so I at least I had canned food to eat while I waited 2 days for the only bus out of town.

Very Disappointed – Not Worth the Price The cost was outrageous for the rundown condition of the room we received. The roof was leaking in the lobby, and there was extra room furniture being stored in common areas, which gave the place a very unprofessional feel. Our bathroom was in poor shape—the bathtub shower curtain was barely hanging on, and it looked unfinished overall. It also took about 30 minutes of running water just to get a warm shower. When I asked the front desk, they simply said, “Yes, it needs to run for a bit before it gets hot.” That’s unacceptable for any hotel, especially at this price point. I've stayed at hotels for a fraction of the cost and had a much better experience. Would not recommend.

Although it has an antique style, the place is clean, comfortable, and reasonably priced for the accommodation, and the staff were satisfactory.
