Leamington's BEST Kept Secret: Town'n Country Motor Inn!
Okay, buckle up, buttercups, because I'm about to spill the beans on Leamington's… well, best kept secret: Town'n Country Motor Inn! Forget sterile hotel reviews, this is a rollercoaster ride of honest opinions, quirky insights, and probably a few typos. Let's get messy!
First off, the SEO stuff. Gotta get those Google rankings! We need to hit all the keywords. So, deep breath:
Leamington Hotel, Leamington Motor Inn, Town'n Country Review, Wheelchair Accessible Leamington, Free Wi-Fi Leamington, Pool with a View Leamington, Spa Leamington, Pet-Friendly Hotel Leamington (kinda…), Restaurant Leamington, Family-Friendly Hotel Leamington, Breakfast in Leamington! Okay, I think we’ve got it. Now, for the real… stuff.
Arrival & First Impressions (and the little things that actually matter):
Okay, so here's the deal. Town'n Country isn’t some shiny, cookie-cutter mega-hotel. It's got character. And I mean that in a good way. The exterior? Classic motor inn, think vintage Americana. Think maybe… well, maybe the before picture of a HGTV makeover, but that's part of its charm! It's real. And honestly, that's refreshing.
Accessibility: This is important folks. Town'n Country attempts to be accessible and I have to say, the effort is appreciated. They have facilities for disabled guests, an elevator for getting to those upper floors, and I saw some rooms that appeared to be wheelchair accessible. This is a big win. Definitely call ahead and confirm specific needs, because accessibility is a constantly evolving thing.
Cleanliness and Safety: Now, in the COVID era, this is paramount. They claim to use anti-viral cleaning products, and have stuff like daily disinfection in common areas, hand sanitizer everywhere you look, and rooms sanitized between stays. Look, I can’t vouch for the exact brand of sanitizer, but I felt safe. They’ve got staff trained in safety protocol and masks required (or at least, they were when I visited). I felt like they cared. That's a big deal.
The Rooms – My Own Personal Getaway (and the Coffee Situation):
Okay, my room. Remember, imperfection is key! There was air conditioning (thank God), free Wi-Fi (in all rooms, HALLELUJAH!), and a desk to work at. And the coffee/tea maker… well, let's just say the coffee was a functional rather than a gourmet experience. But hey, it woke me up! There were complimentary tea, and bottled water too! I saw non-smoking rooms. There was a refrigerator, which is always a win for keeping those late-night snacks cold. They’ve got satellite/cable channels, and wake-up service. The best part? Blackout curtains – a lifesaver for those who cherish their sleep.
Okay, so, the internet was AWESOME. I work remotely, so having free Wi-Fi was a blessing. Plus, I need the Netflix and chill. So having internet access – wireless and internet access- LAN was the BEST. I'm a gamer and having internet access – wireless was the BEST thing ever!
Dining, Drinking & Snacking – Food, Glorious Food (and Maybe a Hangry Moment or Two):
Okay, this is where things get interesting! They have restaurants which is a bonus. I can't speak for the food quality, though… I ate at the restaurant because I was starving. There was breakfast buffet and also Asian cuisine in restaurant. But, honestly, I wasn't there for a Michelin star experience. Okay, I take that back: The breakfast buffet was Asian Cuisine and was pretty dope. I also saw coffee/tea in restaurant, and desserts in restaurant. There’s also a poolside bar and snack bar!
Ways to Relax - The Spa, the Pool, and My Inner Zen (or lack thereof):
They have a swimming pool and a pool with a view, which, alright, is pretty sweet. I didn't use it because I'm afraid of water. But, on the other hand, they also have spa and spa/sauna. I heard some whispering about the massage. I think. I don't do spa days. But hey!
Services and Conveniences – The Little Extras (and the Occasional Hiccup):
They’ve got daily housekeeping, which is a lifesaver (for me, at least!). Ironing facilities! Ironing service. Laundry service. Laundry service. Luggage storage. Cash withdrawal. They even have a gift/souvenir shop! (I didn't see it, but it might be there!). The lobby has air conditioning in public area. They also have meeting/banquet facilities and meetings… I guess that's for the super corporate people. Concierge. Doorman. Elevator. Facilities for disabled guests. All good stuff.
For the Kids (and the Kid in All of Us): Family/child friendly. They have a babysitting service, kids facilities, and a kids meal. Amazing!
Getting Around – Location, Location, Location (and Getting Around):
They have car park [free of charge], and car park [on-site]. This is a HUGE plus. Less walking, more relaxing. You can get a taxi service. Awesome!
The Imperfections (Because Nobody’s Perfect – Especially Not Me):
Okay, let's get real. This isn't a five-star resort. It's not glamorous. The decor isn't exactly "modern chic." The exterior corridor reminded me of a movie set from a slightly dodgy 80s thriller. And I, for whatever reason, couldn't get a good picture.
Overall Impression:
Town'n Country Motor Inn isn’t flawless, but it’s honest. It's got a friendly vibe, and the staff genuinely try to be helpful. It's a great base for exploring Leamington (and the surrounding area). It's comfortable, convenient, and, let's be honest, sometimes perfectly imperfect places have the most soul.

Escape to KL: Your Dream Puchong Homestay Awaits!
Alright, alright, buckle UP buttercups, 'cause we're diving headfirst into… drumroll… my glorious (and slightly chaotic) Leamington, Ontario adventure! And it all starts, naturally, at the Town'n Country Motor Inn. Let's get this show on the road (literally).
Leamington Labyrinth: A Schedule of Events (Maybe) - And Emotional Meltdown Moments
Day 1: Arrival and… Well, Existing.
- 1:00 PM: Arrive at the Town'n Country. Okay, first impressions? It looked promising online. You know, the classic "charming roadside inn" vibe. But reality? Let's call it "rustic." The lobby smelled faintly of chlorine and despair (kidding… mostly). The receptionist, bless her heart, looked like she'd seen things. Things that required lots of strong coffee. Check-in was smooth, thankfully. No hidden fees! Score! (Phew, deep breath).
- 1:30 PM: Settle into my room. (Room 212, for posterity.) The bed? Uh… well, let's just say it's not the Four Seasons. It’s there. The air conditioning unit, however, sounds like a jet engine taking off. Might need earplugs. Already feeling the existential dread of a solo trip.
- 2:00 PM: Explore the immediate surroundings. Walked, or rather, trudged across the parking lot to assess the culinary landscape. Found a Tim Horton's. My Canadian initiation ritual is now complete. Witnessed the epic drama of a squirrel attempting to steal a discarded croissant. Rooted for the squirrel. Capitalism is exhausting.
- 2:30 PM - 5:00 PM: Decided that I was still tired from the drive… and decided on a nap. I slept for two glorious hours… now I feel like I’m going to be awake for days.
- 5:00 PM: Back to reality. Tried to work out if the hotel restaurant has a decent dinner option. The menu looked like a relic from the 80s. (And not in a cool, retro way.) Ended up eating a soggy burger at the hotel bar. The bartender was nice, though. He told me about the local fishing scene. I don't particularly enjoy fishing, but he sounded very passionate. Felt a tiny spark of human connection. Maybe this won't be entirely a disaster.
- 7:00 PM: Walk to the supermarket to buy snacks and drinks for tonight's stay.
- 8:00 PM: Attempted to watch tv but instead, the jet-engine AC unit made it impossible to sleep (without earplugs).
- 9:00 PM: Stared at ceiling, contemplating the meaning of life (and wondering if I should've sprung for the suite). This is getting old.
- 10:00 PM: Gave up on sleep. Started writing this ridiculous itinerary.
Day 2: Pelee Point and… Possible Existential Crisis
- 8:00 AM: After a night of fitful sleep and dreams involving squirrels and disappearing croissants, I needed a coffee. A lot of it. Went into the hotel "continental breakfast" setup… and stared at it blankly. Plastic-wrapped muffins and instant coffee? Nope. Instead, I went to Tim Horton's again. Desperation, I tell you.
- 9:00 AM: Drive to Point Pelee National Park! The main event. The sun was shining! Found the park entrance fee and paid in full.
- 9:30 AM: First impressions. Point Pelee is gorgeous. The beach! The reeds! The sheer airiness of it all! It's the southernmost point of mainland Canada, and, well, it feels special. Like, "I am a tiny speck in the vastness of the universe" special.
- 10:00 AM - 12:00 PM: Hiked to the Tip (the actual, southern-most tip of the point). The walk was easy and beautiful. The sand was the colour of gold. Saw a little snake, probably trying to stay cool, just like me. Took approximately a billion photos. Got sand in my shoes. Worth it.
- 12:00 PM: Lunch at the park's cafe. Tried a veggie burger… it was edible. Ate it while staring out at the water. Thinking. About things. You know.
- 1:00 PM - 3:00 PM: Walked more. Drove on the boardwalk, and took multiple stops. The boardwalk offers a closer look at the marsh ecosystems and the chance to see wildlife like painted turtles, frogs, and various birds. So many birds! I’m not a bird person, but even I was impressed by the variety. Also, the wind whips around, and it's even more dramatic.
- 3:00 PM: The wind picked up. Decided I could not take the wind any more.
- 4:00 PM: Went back to the hotel and took a long shower that washed away all my worries.
- 6:00 PM: Wandered around town, looking for a decent dinner. No luck. Ended up at the same hotel bar. But different bartender! Progress!
- 7:00 PM: Ate an extra large helping of French fries.
- 8:00 PM: Contemplated the meaning of life (again). This time with fries.
- 9:00 PM: Slept. (Thankfully.)
Day 3: Departure and… Maybe a Return?
- 9:00 AM: Decided that I could not endure another breakfast at the hotel. Went to Tim Horton's again. (I’m feeling a deep and abiding kinship with those squirrels.)
- 10:00 AM: Checked out of the hotel. The receptionist smiled. Maybe they could sense my relief.
- 10:30 AM: Drove towards Windsor.
- 11:30 AM: Stop by a local park before leaving.
- 12:00 PM: Goodbye, Leamington! This trip was… an experience. Parts of it were a bit rough around the edges (like my hotel room), but Point Pelee was truly amazing. It was an experience.
- 12:30 PM: Start the drive out.
The Bottom Line:
Would I go back to Leamington? Yes. Maybe. Definitely to Point Pelee. Town'n Country? Well, maybe not. But hey, it added character, right? And sometimes, a little bit of "rustic charm" is exactly what you need. Or maybe I just need a bigger dose of caffeine. Either way, I survived. And that's something. (Plus, the squirrel appreciation is now officially part of my personality.)

Town'n Country Motor Inn: The Unofficial FAQ (Because, Honestly, Who Has Time For Official?)
What's the deal with this "Best Kept Secret" nonsense? Is the Town'n Country *actually* a secret?
Okay, okay, settle down. "Best Kept Secret" is a *bit* of an exaggeration. Let's be real, anyone who's driven through Leamington, and I mean *anyone*, has probably seen the Town'n Country. It's that charming, somewhat faded, retro-vibe place on the highway. Secret? Nah. Undervalued gem? Maybe, just maybe.
I mean, my Aunt Mildred *swears* it's haunted. Claims she saw a shadowy figure in room 17... personally? I think she'd had a few too many Crown Royals at the casino. Still, the *idea* of a little ghosty? Enhances the ambiance. Don't tell the front desk I said that, though, they already think I'm a menace for asking about the Wi-Fi every five seconds (more on that later...).
The rooms... what are they *really* like? I'm picturing something... dated.
Dated? Honey, 'dated' is putting it mildly. Think vintage Formica, floral wallpaper that *might* be original (could also be a really convincing reproduction, I'm no expert), and a general air of 'time forgot.' Which, frankly, is part of the charm. I stayed there last fall, you know, just when the leaves were starting to turn. It was perfect. It was quiet. The bed, I won't lie, was questionable. But the crisp autumn air and the view of the highway... pure bliss.
The water pressure in the shower? Let's just say it's adequate. Pack your own conditioner, the provided stuff smells suspiciously like industrial cleaner, and the towels... oh, the towels. Bless their threadbare little hearts. They do the job, eventually.
And the air conditioning? Okay, fair warning, sometimes it's like a grumpy old man - works sporadically, grumbles a lot. But hey, open the window, enjoy the crickets, right? It just adds to the experience...
Is the Wi-Fi actually a thing? I need to, you know, *work*.
Ah, yes. The Wi-Fi. This is where things get... *interesting*. Let's just say it's not exactly fiber optic. It's more like... dial-up in the age of smartphones. I spent an entire afternoon wrestling with it once, trying to upload a single family picture. It took three hours, and by the time it finally finished, I’d aged roughly a decade. I think I might have actually aged ten years from that experience alone. So, work? Depends on your definition of "work." Checking emails? Maybe. Video conferencing? God bless you, if you can pull that off. I personally recommend disconnecting. Seriously. Embrace the analog life while you're there. Read a book. Stare out the window. Contemplate the existential dread of slow internet speeds. It's cathartic, I promise.
Are the staff friendly?
Friendly? That's a loaded question, isn't it? Let's go with "authentically friendly." You're not getting the forced smiles and fake enthusiasm of some corporate chain. You're getting the real deal, maybe a little shy, maybe a little world-weary, but undeniably *real*. They're usually busy, and probably a little short-staffed, and also probably the victims of your relentless questions about Wi-Fi but they still try. It’s like talking to your cool, slightly eccentric aunt who's seen it all and isn't particularly impressed by anything. They're not trying to sell you anything, they're just... there. And honestly, that’s kind of refreshing.
Okay, you mentioned an experience...tell me more!
Alright, alright, you twisted my arm. The *best* stay I ever had, honestly, was last winter. I was going through... stuff. A rough breakup, a job I hated. I booked a room at the Town'n Country on a whim. Just a little getaway to clear my head. It was snowing. Like, *really* snowing. Blizzarding even. The highway was basically impassable. I was stuck there. Completely and utterly stranded.
At first, I panicked. I was alone, the wind was howling, and the only thing open for dinner was the greasy spoon diner across the street (which, by the way, has the *best* coffee in Leamington, but let's not get sidetracked). But then... something shifted. Maybe it was the sheer absurdity of the situation. Maybe it was the sheer volume of snow. Maybe it was the fact that I was completely and utterly forced to unplug from everything. I sat in my room, wrapped in a threadbare blanket, and just... watched the snow fall. Listened to the wind. Read a trashy novel. And it was... *perfect*. It was possibly the most zen experience of my life. The silence. The solitude. The realization that the world kept spinning, even if I was stuck in a motel during a blizzard. Yeah, the Wi-Fi didn't work. And the heater sputtered a bit. But in that moment? It was exactly what I needed. I think I literally cried. Happy tears, mind you. I woke up to the sun shining on the snow, and the world felt... different. I felt different.
I'll never forget that trip. And the Town'n Country? Well, it's got a piece of my heart. Even if the shower could use a little work.
Is it worth it, ultimately? Should I book a room?
Look, if you're expecting luxury, look elsewhere. If you're after sterile perfection, run screaming. If you NEED reliable Wi-Fi, FORGET ABOUT IT. But if you're looking for a slice of real life, a dose of nostalgia, a chance to unplug and reconnect (with yourself, maybe), then absolutely, yes. Book a room. Embrace the glorious imperfections. Order a really bad pizza for delivery. And for the love of all that is holy, pack your own conditioner. You might just find yourself falling in love with this quirky little motel, just like I did.
