I was here twice before, was treated very nicely. This time, I was informed that a $70 would be charged, and refunded next day, which did not happen before. I don't appreciate the inconsistent services.

The staff member Mr gavino was the most pleasant and helpful
The room we had was extremely neglected holes in the carpet patched walls that where clearly not done properly the hinges on the bathroom where coated in rust internet didn't work no connection, coffee was available in the morning nice and hot i booked a single queen room and when we arrived the clerk claimed i reserved a room with two beds assuming they gave our room away considering i have an email stating i reserved a room with a queen facility itself is very clean the building and rooms just appear neglected and no interest in updating them water is definitely hot for shower and bathtub id recommended somewhere else to stay i was in the parking lot in my car around 10pm and the truck next too me there was a man urinating on the ground
This is the worse motel iv EVER encountered absolutely do not go there! They wouldn’t let anyone even come into my room after 10pm not even to help me put my luggage in the room they were so concerned about charging more an more fees and being able to kick u out without refunding u and were so busy listing off more and more irrational rules that never did this place ever even say welcome it was the most unwelcoming and intrusive an rude establishment iv ever encountered and then to tell me it would be 7 -10 business days before my money would be refunded what a musleading joke…worst place ever trust me do not ever book a room here

We actually decided not to stay at this location, but I wanted to leave a 5-star review because the property manager didn't charge us for 3 rooms we had reserved when he could have per their late cancellation policy.
Definitely a budget motel. Lady working front desk super pleasant. Rooms super dated, needs renovation, ripped carpet, burn stains here and there, no working lamp and no working TV and TV services not working but front end lady got it fixed which took about an hour. Bedding thin and scratchy.

My view was all the junkies that live in the bushes. Broke down cars lining the streets.
I would NOT advise anyone to book at this establishment.
It was a busy weekend for Kelso as they had cycle race traversing their town. Getting accommodation was difficult. We requested NON SMOKING ROOM. The room reserved for us had smoke odour,. They did give us another room but nominally better.
Mold in bathroom, chipped furniture, bed linen appeared to have been slept in. carpets
Pass thru stay overnight, worked well for but needs a few updates. Nice snack breakfast but just sugar bomb doughnuts, coffee available at 6. Very nice staff and helpful. A/c / gray unit needed repair but wasn’t unbearable for the time we were there. Nice walk to downtown and train depot.
