This place doesnt look like much from the outside but you will be pleased once you step inside. I checked in with an older Asian gentleman. He was very nice and let me know if I needed clean towels I could pick them up myself if I refused turn down service because only management had keys to the rooms, not the general cleaners. I had a king size single room. The bed was very comfortable with a pillow top cover. There was a microwave and small fridge in the room. The TV was 28 or 32 with basic cable. It is about 15-20 minutes from Buffalo where I was attending a wedding. Anytime I need a room in/near Buffalo or Niagara Falls (American side) I would not mind this great affordable place.
The motel is located about 20 mins from the falls. The owner was nice and the room had a fridge and microwave but that was all that was good about it. The bathtub was really dirty. We got bleach to put in it because we really wanted to use it but just decided not to. There was hair around the sink and dead bugs on the floor, we even found a couple small ones on the bed. Also the site we booked it from said check out was 11, but the paper in the room said 10.
Was ABSOLUTELY STUNNED with how beautiful, classy the decor was- especially for the ultra-cheap price I paid! I have paid far more for far less pleasant stays. Room was clean, heater worked great, location great too. Place was not run-down like many other hotels in the area, and management was friendly and helpful. Will DEFINITELY return!
We looked up reviews, on this motel and several other of the huge number of motels i n the area. The pics posted made us go take a look. If you are looking for an overpriced place with all the amenities, dont stop here. If you are satisfied with a super clean room for $45.00, this is the place. Our room had a really cute retro look. The owners were friendly and helpful. There was a small refrigerator and a spotlessly clean microwave. My husband is a trucker and we will be recommending this place to the other guys who pick up and deliver in Niagara Falls, and his company does often. Very happy with the accommodations
The motel is a place to sleep, but very minimal on any luxuries other than that. There is no breakfast, the bathrooms are bad, there were some little red ants in our room, and a funky smell. It isnt terrible for the price, but it was pretty bad, even for motel standards.
The jacuzzi was comfortable but leaked and soaked into the carpet all night so all of our things were wet when we woke up. The bed was so uncomfortable we couldnt sleep hardly at all. The bed also had just a sheet on it. No comforter or thick blanket at all. It looked very trashy and unfinished. The ceiling was peeling and chipping. Overall the experience was terrible and I do not recommend the motel to anyone. The pictures look great but the mattresses are lumpy and feel more like laying on just the box spring. Find another place to stay if you want to sleep. Almost every motel in this town has a jacuzzi so dont worry.
For the price this motel was not worth it. The room felt dirty as soon as you walk in. The tub in the bathroom was filthy to the point where you could see dirt build up on the sides. There is a hot tub in the room but is marked out of service even though it clearly worked. It was obvious the owners just didnt want to bother cleaning up.For a few extra bucks find a better place to stay.
Small family friendly motel. Each room has a refrigerator and microwave. It doesnt have contenetal breakfast. We had two queen size beds which left very little walking space but the kid bed we were able to push against the wall which gave the adult bed more walking space. The bathroom was modern and every one was friendly. The door was a dead bolt which was nice because we kill magnetic cards lol. They do not clean your room while you are there inless you ask. Which made it feel safer.
Beware! Reserved two rooms a month + in advance. Had to cancel two weeks later, was told no problem. Their cancellation policy is 48 hr. They never offered a reservation or cancellation number. Lo and behold, two days before the original reservation date they charge my card anyway. Not cool. I will let my credit card company handle it.
Arrived here after a 5 hour car ride, got to the room (jacuzzi suite) old opened shampoo packs in shower jacuzzi had no warm water also electric outlet not gfi right next to it door wouldn’t lock and the heat did not work (January weather) asked for a refund for second day because I wasn’t going to stay here another night the owner seemed ok about that at first only to have an attitude when it was time to put up! I think I may need to get a tetanus shot after staying the 7 hours I was there!
While the room is clean and doesnt smell it is very tired and old. The bathroom is very small. The curtains on the window are a cream color with no backing. So all the bright unfiltered light hits you as soon as the sun comes up. The furniture is straight out of 1965. There are no outlets on either side of the bed for our cpap machines. We bad to find a walmart and buy exstension cords so we could use them. No coffee maker in the room. Had to plug in the fridge and have to inplug it when we leave. Spiders in the tub. Dont think we with ever consider staying here again. Will deffinatly find a bettet place from jere on out.
The hotel is only clean and the sinking is cramped. There are no services or a phone to call the reception. Unfortunately, he lied to the reception. He said we will give you a large room instead of the room I booked, and it came out very small and expensive for nothing.... I advise staying away from it as much as possible.

2022-06-23The room was junky as heck! Looked real sketchy at first! I did notice, however, that it was clean. The bed linens and towels were also very clean. So, if you want a cheap room that looks very cheap but is clean, then this is your place.

2021-09-19Id put no stars if I could. The smoke detector was not attached to the ceiling, it fell off at some point and they put it on top of the microwave. The a plug has the a/c, microwave, and refrigerator in it. The toilet has a leak somewhere, so there was water on the floor. Nats in bathroom sink. The tubs hot water nozzle had a leak. The tub was so slippery I was afraid I would slip in it. The couch had lots of rips and stuff, and they tried to hide it by putting towels over it.

2021-07-08This place was great! Clean. Friendly people and the owner takes pride in his establishment. Super clean rooms. The owner even made a point to verify we were happy with our room. We stayed at a holiday in nearby first that was terrible in Comparison.

2021-05-30The owner was so very nice! The rooms were really nice. Had a fridge and microwave. We got there early and he had no problems checking us in. We stayed a Couple nights there. We checked out early tho because of our trip. We did make it to our destination in Canada. Thank you for being so nice.

2021-07-15Clean apartment set up. Needs a few things such as mirrors in bedrooms (only one mirror in bathroom), toaster and a better couch. There were 2 very uncomfortable futons. Needs a fresh coat of paint. Maybe they just need a decent investor.

2021-07-06I have stayed at some questionable places before. At least they have had good beds. At this place the bed was horrible. My husband and I kept rolling into the center. Also the shower is like a cruise ship shower. Super small.

2019-05-27I was satisfied with the service I received. We checked in last minute after receiving horrible service at the motel we originally we’re going to stay at and the receptionist was extremely nice, we received a discount and since we had 2 rooms he made sure we could be right next to each other. The rooms were basic, mini fridge, microwave, somewhat spacious, the bathroom could use a little work at least the doors, but overall it was a comfortable stay. Quiet and near lots of stores and food down the road. I would consider staying again.

2021-04-01Def not what it looked like in the pic. The jacuzzi was better, it wasnt a heart shaped one lol I was happy about that. The circle bed through me off a bit but all in the owner was nice and it was just a quick stop for the night.
