Limited maid service. They only change towels/sheets every 4th day. We only stayed 2 nights, so maid service never came to the room, not even to make the bed!

We would stay here again

This hotel looks a typical motel from the outside but has been fully renovated inside. The room was clean and comfortable. The art was colorful and the furnishings were modern. The beds were great and the sink area was right inside the room. The shower and toilet area had its own door. There was a fridge but no coffee maker or cups in the room. It was perfect for an overnight stop on our way to another destination. The staff was very friendly and helpful. Breakfast had a lot of options to choose from and a nice space to eat. There’s a great restaurant named the Proper Pig not far away. We would stay here again.

All the basics done well

Roadside hotel, recently redone. Up-ro-date furnishings. Nothing fancy, but good basic place. A list of TV channels would be nice since it takes a while to fihre things out. Perfect for a night on a road trip.

Surprisingly quiet considering closeness to freeway and vehicles right outside the door. Unfortunately the Irving lights from behind were shining in through the bathroom window at night and then the sun in the morning. Great friendly staff, Amanda checked us in. There was another lady in the morning shift when I grabbed my mom’s coffee. Spacious and well organized.

Smelly

The overwhelming stench of marijuana was present in my building and around the office. I know there’s a dispensary next door, but had I known, so would have stayed elsewhere.

We stayed at The Elmwood only very briefly, en route to Cape Breton, but were very pleased with the cleanliness and comfortable bed and quiet surroundings. Due to traffic delays we arrived well after their usual office hours (7a-7p) but management had arranged to have a clerk on the desk to greet us -- we very much appreciated that above-and-beyond service.
