This was a great option for our one-night stay after visiting Vancouver. The front desk staff was friendly and efficient. The rooms were spacious and clean. The breakfast options were typical of a continental hotel breakfast - waffles, yogurt, fruit, bagels, etc. Enough variety that I could find something to eat on my vegetarian, gluten-free diet. There was plenty of on-site parking. And getting to the hotel from Route 5 was super easy. I'd say this hotel is a solid choice and was better then I expected.

This is a great little motel. The room was very spacious, super clean, comfortable bed, quiet. AC/heat worked well. It had a surprisingly good breakfast with waffles, fruit, cereal, good coffee, packaged pasteries, juice, and more. More perks in the room include bedside tables on both sides of bed with lamps and power outlets, a desk plus a little table with 2 chairs, refrigerator, coffee maker. Staff pleasant, friendly. Good free parking. Stay here!
