The room was good.
Was exactly as portrayed. Code for room works but it doesn't light up until you have pressed a number and you can't see to press the correct first number. Perhaps a more clever person is required.

Uncomfortable Stay
OLD building, somewhat renovated. No friendly staff present. Walk thru dark lower level hallway (long-term renters) to access upstairs units. Door knob code panel not pre-light prior to initiating code. Took 3 attempts. Large gap around room door (have picture). Not very secure.

We liked the easy check in, the comfortable beds, the spaciousness of the room, and especially that our room was sparkling clean. What didn’t work for us was the very weak bathroom fan, and it would’ve been nice to have a second chair in the room.

Have a big parking lot and is right beside the hwy. Good location. The bed is uncomfortable (old mattress) and the floor was dirty. The sheets and bathroom were clean but the shower doors wasn't clean and that makes me think that the whole shower wasn't very clean. The hallway smells like humidity.

I know that this was a "value" property but besides being that the major complaint's are (1) that the window AC was vented into the hallway. So if you turned the noisy AC off you roasted. The hallway was extremely hot. (2) The walls are paper thin. You can hear everything going on in the adjacent rooms from conversations to "everything" else. We will sleep in our car before we stay at this property ever again.

We stayed in room 9 and it was what we needed. It was clean, odour free, the bed was comfortable but softer than to my liking. The fridge was nice and cold. The microwave worked well. The water pressure was good and the hot water was hot. It was a little disappointing to discover that all exits/entrances didn't have code access necessitating walks from the far end of the parking lot/back end of the building. Emergency exits were alarmed with signage preventing near-access to the parking lot. Management, who we accidently met a couple of times were friendly and helpful. I'd suggest tea and de-caf coffee at the easy to use Keurig coffee maker, and also some signage on the drawer "hiding" the coffee. I was slightly annoyed that our room door did not latch easily - it needed a hard push to latch, putting our belongings at risk. The room-door code entry device is poorly lit, and the unlit numbers are difficult to see, until the first number is hit. The window curtains flapped because of the air conditioner fan and it would be nice to see some weights to place on it to prevent flapping. The air conditioner controls seemed to be unresponsive until I discovered a remote control for it. The walls were well constructed for sound and we never heard our neighbours or even if we had neighbours. A good stay inspite of these annoyances.

Got there, there was no one working there, tried to knock of office door no answer, got into out rooms felt like the floor hasn’t been swept in a while, there was blood on the vanity in bathroom, curtains were not big enough to cover the window had to go get some clips to clip it shut enough that no one would see in, ac was really loud aswell. Area was nice though

The location was excellent! The staff was wonderful! the bed needs major upgrading. The sheets and comforter felt amazing, but you could feel the springs of the mattress! Overall very happy with the stay and would stay again if I knew the beds were new.
