Motel vibes with hotel quality. Looks like they recently renovated, and they did a great job of it. My room was super clean and the staff were always friendly. Very comfortable bed, and all the basics covered in the room. The breakfast was modest, but very convenient. I happened to get the room at the very corner of the hotel, and the view was incredible. Would easily recommend Vista Inn.
NO A/C needed in a Canadian winter, but the heater was really good! Stayed one night and it has everything a traveller needs - comfy bed, hot shower, good linens, and quiet neighbors - a a great price! I will be back
The motel was clean and looked newly renovated. Staff was friendly. The breakfast is very simple, granola bars, yogurt etc. Overall, it felt like good value for the price.
Was pleasantly surprised to find our room nicer and more comfortable than the big-dollar resort one we stayed in the night before! Very clean and quiet, too.
