My family and I stayed in the family suite of the Rex motel. It is about a 25 minute walk to the area around the Falls.
The family suite was just right for me, my son and my two grandchildren. I had a small room right separate from theirs but in the same suite. The bed was soft but to my surprise very comfortable. It's not fancy, just practical and clean, very clean. The bath is small but sufficient and clean towels were always there. A fridge and coffee maker with coffee were also there with bottled water and coffee pods replaced daily. The price was very reasonable. I would stay there again. The new owners are doing a good job. If I had a criticism, it would be that the 3 doors were awkward when moving through the hall. Not sure it that could be fixed or not.

The Rex is as advertised: clean and cheerful rooms, friendly staff and comfy bed. It’s a motel so don’t expect anything fancy but it’s half the price of other hotels in area. A short drive or uber ride to attractions and restaurants. Quiet area.

We just finished up a vacation to Niagara and stayed here 4 nights. Everything was perfect. Great rate, extremely clean, quiet, friendly hosts who made good recommendations for parking, free WI-Fi, great beds and pillows, excellent water pressure, and thick towels. The only caveat: even after 4 days here, we had trouble finding the place. This is not the fault of the property, but of the layout and street names in NF Canada (and admittedly, I have a terrible sense of direction, but I CAN read maps). By the last day, it finally made more sense, but it was very frustrating. My GPS did not work in Canada, so check that out before you go.
