Very welcoming host.  Quiet, clean, and comfortable room.  Very nicely appointed but not trendy, which is fine by us!  Ground floor hears some from above.  The host is friendly and is doing the best he can as an independent owner! 

It's a great stopping place with lots of food choices nearby!

Great stopping place!  

We stayed here years ago and found it basic but very clean. We were travelling through the area again and the best western was sold out so thought we would try it again. we found  check in to be friendly but room was sub-par. Sheets dirty and found hairs in bed…yuck! Sheets smelled dirty..pretty sure they didn’t change the sheets..double yuck!  If we weren’t exhausted from travelling we would have changed hotels.  Towels were dingy, smelly  and yellowed as were the sheets.    I don’t mind staying in on older motel but it needs to be clean!  We wont be back.  I don’t know who wrote raving review about this place…it’s fair at best n my books if not poor.  The photos make it look better than it was 

Nope, don’t do it...yellow sheet inn !

I booked a non-smoking room.  Imagine my surprise when walking into a heavily odoured room that obviously had been smoked in.  I asked for another room but was informed there were none available.  It was late, so I was resigned to a night of burying my nose in the pillow as to not smell the smoke.   No surprise the night didn't go well and I woke early (no alarm) just to get outta there.  A badly soiled towel (pic attached) was on the shelf for customer use.  I don't even want to think what it was used for let alone put out for consumer use.  The lights in the bathroom (pic attached) kinda symbolize the 'standard' of this motel.  The sign (pic attached) declares, "clean, comfortable, just like home" - true if you live in a barn.  I will not stay there again and I encourage you to do likewise.  The manager on site was polite and even tried to be helpful.  He should have offered a deep discount as I was effectually paying for something I didn't buy.

Like this Model A (pic attached), this facility is antiquated and doesn't deliver

I stayed at the Model A Inn on my way through town and ended up with bed bug bites all over my body. Thankfully they did not travel with me to my end destination a work camp because that could have been a major incident. I will never stay there again, and I recommend that any travelers check the rooms before going to bed.  Get your motel fumigated!!

Bed Bugs

Got the last room late at night passing through! Decent place to stay. Comfortable bed. Unfortunately there was no coffee machine in the room. A place where you actually used a key and not a key card. Unfortunately the parking was not the best. Not suited for big trucks and one truck blocked two spots so we could not park by our room. Good last minute stop.

Decent overnight stay.

Great little place conveniently located on the main street through town. Room was clean. Bed was great. Had a great sleep. Randy, the owner, was very pleasant as he checked us in. Got photos in front today the Model A car in the driveway. Great experience. Will definitely be back.

Highly recommend

We loved this little motel. The rooms are CLEAN. Felt safe. Dog friendly. Offered space to walk the dog. Looked like other guests were visiting on the patio. We would go back there if in the area. Thank you.

Traveller

Very clean and great place to stay. Price is more than reasonable and staff are very generous of their time to provide assistance. Close to restaurants or shopping. Easy access to getting in and out of town. Would recommend.

Quite Quaint

We lost our receipt for a two night stay and needed it for reimbursement. 
I phoned the lady who manages the motel and was told that she would fax it maybe sometime tomorrow. I asked her if she could phone first as it is our home phone. She told me in no uncertain terms that she had no time to do that. 
When I protested, she hung up the phone. I'll post a comment again if she behaves better. But for now I'm not used to being treated like that. 
Totally unimpressed. Good motel, but there are plenty others. and I won't bother them again.

Wait a minute!

I have just spend last week at model A well visiting family. The staff has been first class. They have been helpful when needed and respectful of privacy. Easy access to anything on strip in Cranbrook. Would happily stay next time in Cranbrook. they also allow pets.
