Happy stay at the Happy Salmon
A last minute booking turned into a very pleasant stay. The owner was very friendly and the hotel comfort/cleanliness were both excellent. Very well maintained. Happy Salmon is located next to the highway but road noise was not a concern. I would definitely stay again and am glad I found this gem.

Nice motel by the highway.
Very nice motel with lots of space. Older but well maintained. Seems most rooms are actually more of a suite with a separate dining and tv area.

Great spot for solo traveller passing through.
Excellent spot for a quick overnight passing through. Very clean and comfortable, could hear the folks in the next room a little bit but not enough to be disruptive. Would definitely stay again.

Great for overnight stopover stay
Great location right on highway with good signage, especially useful late at night. Motel room is bare basic; but is super clean. Bathroom is spotless. Bedding and towels are of good quality.
