Poor interior of room as it was not visually pleasing, a/c did not work. Only one light bulb working in bathroom, the fixture has placement for four bulbs. The owner knocked on my door 45 minutes prior to check out asking if I was checking out or not. I didn’t appreciate the intrusion at all. I would not recommend.

Property is a convenient stop over half-way point however on a lower end of the scale as far as room updateness goes. Needs a face-lift and room color scheme changes. Old building. Nice that Tim's is close by and an awesome Pizza place for a meal.

Nice location on the water. Room was clean, but had a very distinctly bad odor. Towels also smelled badly. Should replace all bedding and towels. It would go a long ways toward receiving a more positive rating.

The bed was as hard as a rock, it was like someone took a kitchen table put a sheet on it, and called it a bed. Booked two parking lot rooms, and was given one room across the parking lot along the waterfalls, made it difficult when traveling with children… would not recommend this place to anyone! One side of the room had a room full of dogs, the other side had cats along the falls. The room along the falls smelt like moth balls, and was very small!

The TV didn’t work, the fridge wasn’t plugged in. There was an old water bottle from a previous guest behind the night stand table which also had a considerable amount of dust and debris. The smell of moth balls hits you in the face as soon as you open the door. Large amount of ice build up on the deck as well, no maintenance there. The price definitely should have been way under $100 per night.

The room smelled like it was smoked in for many years and when we complained about the smell they just gave us an air freshener. Do not stay here unless you are a heavy smoker and don't mind the smell
