Boundary Court Motor Inn
Was a great location, friendly staff, great for short term stay some of the furniture was quite worn, And the pillows weren't the best

Ashwood Manor Motor Lodge
The triple spa room and bathroom were spotless and the amenities adequate with the toaster and kettle being brand new. Mind you, the one pack of two biscuits for a room that slept 3 was less than adequate. Furnishings were sparse but met our needs. Additional pillows were requested and supplied immediately ...

Ventura Inn & Suites Hamilton
Nice and clean. Bed was comfy and AC worked fine. Breakfast was really basic continrntal but certainly no Croissant here. Pool not heated. Rooms look very sad, in need of modernity and sofa/chairs need serious vlean up. Too expensive for the quality.
