The two "Valley Girls" voices completely ruin this otherwise great show. I had to mute it.

I like the concept and the girls did a great job but their voices are horrible! So put the subtitles on and put the sound on mute.

The obvious lack of any design knowledge or renovation experience is quite evident. You can't charge premium prices for "smoke and mirror" finishes. It may look ok in a photo but I assure you, in person it will feel like a dorm room makeover on the cheap.
Cannot tell you how frickin' annoying the voices on these two are, the blond just a tad less so. It feels more like a bad Hallmark movie about how two besties try to renovate a motel. I made it through 1o mins.
I'm less than 10 minutes into the first episode and UGH. Like every other reviewer, 1) the girls are awful; 2) their comments are ridiculous; 3) I really don't care about their motel reno at all now...
Netflix - you made a HUGE mistake with this one.

If you enjoy interior design shows, this is a good one. Episodes are not too long and there's not much fake drama; it's fun. But when the ladies have a long conversation, you feel like putting it on mute. It's quite annoying how they talk.

For two 35 year olds, they sound like they are trying to be 15 year old valley girls in the early 2000s.
The overuse of millennial cliches are very annoying. I normally love reno shows but couldn't even finish the FIRST episode.
Please do your ears a favour and just skip this show.

I get the annoying voice people are talking about. It annoys me at first, but I got over it. I don't think the hosts are as annoying as the way they talk though.
I really enjoyed the show and their design ideas. I love designs shows. And this is not bad.

I watch a lot of design shows and enjoyed the idea of making over an old motel rather than a house. I didn't agree with every design choice the women made, but overall I thought they did a good job with a difficult project. Like the other reviewers I did find their vocal fry way of speaking to be super annoying, especially considering they're Canadian and not from LA, but I guess I enjoyed it enough to get passed that.

I like reno shows and this concept seemed like a lot of fun. I don't particularly like their design style or whole aesthetic but I can get past that to watch the show. However about 15 min in to the first episode I could no longer stand listening to their voices. Every sentence ends like a question with the way their voices go up, think 1990s Valley girl. Their lack of experience shows painfully. They don't seem to have learned anything from their previous reno job. If it seemed like they would be learning from this process I could see the show working (as long as they learn to speak like the 35 yr old adults they are).
I wanted to like this show. I gave it a try. I won't be back to finish.

Unlike others, I watched this show because of these women's accents. Where on earth did they learn to speak? I will never again let anyone make fun of my Boston accent. I sound wicked smaht compared to these dolls. I do like the show and would watch it again. Can you have a linguist on sometime to explain to the rest of the world how this accent came to be?

The moment I heard the girls talk, it took me back to mid 1990s. I thought that accent no longer existed. But there it is!
Drop the fake accent. Speak naturally and get on with your renovation. Can't be that hard. Can it?

I tried to watch it and enjoy it , But the two hosts are so pretentious so annoying.
Oh just a couple of ladies unabashedly strutting in fur-lined parkas trying to make an old motel "instagrammable" by incorporating very, very original and cheugy designs ("good vibes only") and jacking up the prices from "$60 to $200 a night," so that they can lure selfies-obsessed girl clientele. The locals must be thrilled to be frowned upon for not serving alternative milk lattes, to be referred to as the real-life Schitt's Creek and to have no local history highlighted.

First off, I joined IMDb just so I could say how horrible their voices are! I just wanted to puncture my ears so I'd never have to hear it again. And after reading the comments, I found out they do it on PURPOSE! Do you hate us?! What have we done to you, to deserve this ear rape ?

I somehow watched all episodes unmuted because I was bored on a rainy Sunday and looking for something empty to binge watch. Not gonna comment on their vocal fry or their inexperience or their basic tastelessness since everyone else already did but I wanted to contribute with a Valley Girl to English dictionary in case you get confused watching this:
Retro: I don't think they know what this means. Anything is retro. A blue swimming pool is retro. A surfboard is retro. Since their vocabulary consists of 15 words they label anything and everything as retro. Don't think too much of it when they say retro, they mean to say "pretty".
Super Retro: Means it has actual vintage vibes.
Real Retro: Vintage.
Art: Anything that came out of a colored printer.
Statement: Either big or weirdly colored anything is statement.
Design moment: Means you can take an Instagram photo at this spot.
You're welcome.

I was sad to see such terrible reviews. This is an amazing show and these girls really did such inspiring things during a pandemic and as business owners are an inspiration to all women. I understand the voice issue. They have picked it up somewhere as I can assure you it is not Canadian. This can happen and unfortunately until you hear yourself or see yourself on tv for the fist time you may have no idea. This is the directors fault. Like any reality tv stars after season 1 they see all their weird facial expressions and hear how they say certain words and if they get a season 2 they always have corrected all these things- I see it all the time! Give these girls a chance and focus on how down to earth the show really is. So many design shows have so many sponsors and massive budgets everything is a yes. That's so boring and it's so overdone and unrealistic. The amount of things these girls had to say no to is so relatable. Their dreams had to come to reality when faced with real financial issues and how many shows tell you HOW MUCH EVERYTHING COSTS!!!!!!!!So refreshing!!!!!!!!! Can't state this enough! I love watching the creativity that comes when people don't have exaggerated over blown budgets! Also I love how unpolished and real the contractors are, they are the types of people you actually have build, not polished Hollywood ty Pennington (no offence) personalities. These girls have brains, style, strength and the most beautiful friendship. They are positive through tough times and know how to work with people, that comes through the screen. It's so refreshing to see a real duo struggle and come out on top. This is not pretentiousness.
I understand the low ratings for being annoyed with the hosts, but there are some fun characters thrown in. Especially Rick the contractor who is obviously annoyed with their voices and them all together at some points, and it makes for some hilarious/uncomfortable moments.
The fact they transformed an entire MOTEL for around $700,000 is beyond impressive, and their project manager Courtney is the least annoying and hardest working in my opinion. If you can look past the vocal fry, this show is kinda entertaining and I do hope to see another June Motel makeover!

I thought I would really like this show. I do not! After listening to the 2 girls speak for a couple of minutes I know there would be no way I could watch the episode until the end....and no way could I watch 6 episodes. They speak using the fad called vocal fry and uptalking. Not everyone likes the sound of Kim Kardashian's voice. Drop the fad and be yourself...it will probably help with the show's ratings.
Also, at the beginning of the show they stated they have no formal training in hospitality and no training in design & renovation. A really big turn-off...I have seen way too much of that in my lifetime. I really do not want to waste my time watching it.

I found this show really entertaining. Yes, the main women have annoying accents but that doesn't take away from how cool it is to watch this motel get absolutely transformed. It made think that you can do anything you put your mind to! It's a great quick binge watch.

The most annoying dialog based on the opinions of two entitled caucasian women. They sounded like they were trying to recreate the ultimate "Valley Girl" movie.
I couldn't make it through the first episode.
