Very Basic
Handy to Stratford Festival and economic. But a very basic, plain motor inn. Front appearance odd with fountain in a parking lot. Staff friendly.

Meh
It just seemed really run-down and not taken care of. It was okay, but not worth the money that we spent.

Stratford alternative
Staying at the Shakespeare Inn is perfectly fine if you want a place to sleep without the steep Stratford prices. No frills, reasonably comfortable, and very clean.
