The reception was cordial, respectful and responsive. It was professional. More grease to the elbow of Swan Motel, especially the staff members who are core to running the day-to-day services of this place. Many thanks.

I booked this place looking at reviews and had high hopes. Unfortunately it was the exact opposite. The place was dirty, blankets with burn marks in them. Empty kicthen with no amenities despite being an extended stay facility, which I paid to upgrade to. Denied access to the advertised shuttle service. Very disappointed and would not book again. WiFi was also extremely weak.

I reserved a non-smoking room for my son and I. When we checked in, I was giving a remote control for the TV with no back on it. Then when we got to our room and I opened the door, it was filled with the stinking stench of cigarettes or cigar smoking. There was no running water in the bathroom sink. The sheet on the bed had a huge tear to the bottom. I wouldn't stay here again nor would I recommend anyone to stay here.

We called for the shuttle service at the airport. They did not tell us where to wait for the shuttle. We waited at the hotel shuttle area and this was not the location. It took us approximately 2 hours to leave the airport. We ended up calling Uber. The following morning we were awoken at 4:44 am by the front desk banging on our door shouting out that it was time to check out. The front desk then used the key and opened our door. Check out wasn't until noon hour. She made an error and went to the wrong room. We couldn't get back to sleep afterwards as we were shaken by the experience. My husband went to the front desk and asked for a refund, or discount or some sort of compensation. The front desk had absolutely no compassion. We would not recommend this motel/hotel.

Big updated rooms and bathrooms are a plus. Convenient airport shuttle service is available. At first a staff member couldn't find my reservation, but the morning person was very pleasant and helpful and straightened everything out. I just wish there was a hairdryer available in the bathroom.
