    Old, rundown, almost decrepit... We went to Walmart and bought our own bedding. Noisy AC, super small toilet, grungy shower, rotten bathroom floor, etc. But if you are on a budget, then it will do.

    Location was great

    Unclean around edges with bugs (not bed bugs) excluding bed that was clean. Bathroom was patched back together with sloppy work and was dank and scarry with bugs in tub and sink drains. Face clothes were unclean. The lobby smelled very heavily of urine.

    Like I said above, there's 1 female staff member that has a bit of an attitude, I didn't really like the location as it's across from drug Central but oh well

    Me & My Boyfriend have stayed here several times, In my Opinion The Rooms Most Definitely Meet my expectations for the cost of the room. It's always clean. Most of the staff are awesome but there's 1 female that has a bit of an attitude, other than that I loved it

    Location was good, staff were friendly and accommodating. The place is extremely run down and dingy. The room was just clean enough. Sheets were clean and bathroom was clean. Kitchen had everything you need, but overall the building and rooms are barely livable. Fine place to stay for really cheap for a couple nights. Booking.com should update the photos on their site, not accurate at all. Pool is not functional at all.

    It was older and needed some repairs (i.e., broken tiles in the bathroom, mismatched things etc.,)

    The location was walking distance to restaurants and the staff were friendly. The bed was also very comfortable. The AC worked really well.

    Old facility. Fridge did not work. No plug for the sink and no handrails in the shower. Main problem was the air conditioner was off when we arrived and could not keep up with summer heat even when running. Wiring was probably not to code and few plugins available to charge devices.

    Good location, the beds were decent

    There was no food service at allthet could of had the pool up and running should of had better pillows. The grounds were beautiful as showed in the pick place is very old and run down could be due to the fact we were told they were replacing next year for a 9 story motel The area is about the only thing that was perfect for shopping close to a lot of stores

    Stayed at the Tiki back in Sept 2019. This past weekend, 5 of us experienced various problems in each of our 3 rooms. Though we were told that rooms were under renovation (some painting), we were surprised to find no bedside table [or those Tiki lamps] put back yet, dusty dirty floors and cabinetry, hillbilly-quality fixes (duct tape) to broken down ceiling and floor tiles in the bathrooms, one room with no hot water. One room's thermostat was no longer connected to the baseboard heating; control wiring exposed. They did bring me an extra blanket when I told them what I was seeing at the office (no heat). Blowdryer caddy fell out of its loose mounts into my hands, no extra pillows, had to ask for hangers in 2 rooms. Ancient homemade (?) cabinetry, rusty/chipped bathtubs, poor hygiene; not a way to run a business. This place has now lost its unique charms - now overshadowed by what appears to be operating on a shoestring budget. Time for the wrecking ball. We shan't stay there again.

    Location.

    Affordability, well stocked with towels and various toiletries (e.g. shampoo, q-tips), helpfulness, across the street from 7/11 - Tim Horton's and short easy walk to a great park (Polson)...all great when travelling with a 7yo grandson! Shorter distance to the wedding we attended (Paddlewheel Hall) than virtually everyone else who had also come from out of town which also translated into less expensive taxi rides!

    The motel is MUCH more run down than advertised on their site. The photos on the website are very misleading. The backyard was not well kept and the pool was not working. The room was mostly clean but could use some upgrades desperately. There were a lot of spider webs and a large spider in the top corner of the bathroom by the shower.

    The owner was very nice and did her best to make our stay enjoyable. The bed was comfortable and the room was very big.

    A last resort for accommodation

    This place clearly has seen better days -- probably in the 1960s. The manager is attentive and helpful, but the owners who are likely going to rebuild, are not putting any money into this place. The pipes to the swimming pool which was supposed to be a feature, were broken, and had not been fixed for months. Our room was supposed to be no-smoking but it smelt as if it had long been a smoking room. The room was not so clean. The glass sliding door was cracked, hidden by a screen. Finally, there was no hot water for a shower because the faucet in our room was broken. To be fair, the manager was apologetic and dealt with the problem. The hotel's neon sign says "A Gem of the Valley." Must be a plastic gem or one made of paste...

    I found this property at the last moment.

    Everything

    The photos on their site are a lie. You could film a horror movie there and not need many props. The lobby stinks. There was a bra and garbage on the counter. I found a sticker on the wall from 2019. With someone's name on it. There was tuck tape holding the floor down. Dead bolt does not work. The plus I got my money back with no problem.

    Hosts bras sitting on the counter during check in. Coffee machine came w/o a cup, bedsheets were extremely stained (blood)? I have photos available, Not secure & home to many homeless/transients. I left for other accommodations after one night. Operating a car repair from a tent in the parking lot. Comment when I left was "don't you like tie dyed sheets?" My money was refunded after threatening to put on my facebook page. Pool had no water.
