The Rex Motel

Great motel, cozy rooms, very clean. Stayed there for 3 nights in early June, didn't have anything to complain about at all. We paid around $65/night which is great value. 7 min drive to the Niagara falls.

Very accommodating to our check in time. Great hospitality, I was able to get everything I asked for in advance. Bathroom spotless. Room had everything we needed. Set back from the road and quiet. Will stay again and would recommend to friends.

For a weekend stay in this area in summer, this was a reasonably priced option and met all of my needs. I'd stay here again!

Pros:
-Clean, quiet, and comfortable; not cramped
-Owner was very helpful and responsive to questions over email and I was able to arrange to store my luggage in the morning
-Though it's not as close to Fallsview as other options, it's in walking distance of reliable city bus stops so it's still practical for tourists who aren't renting a car
-Right across the street from a 7/11 convenience store

Cons:
-City bus service stops coming around the area at night, so you may need to take an Uber if staying out late
-You can't control a thermostat, but for what it is I found this acceptable and I was comfortable in August with the provided fan
-Free WiFi was ok but might not be strong enough if you need to reliably video call or stream things
-Note that check-in is limited to a 3pm-5pm window; there is no 24 hour reception. Self check-out is available.
