We had a great stay. The garden in front of the ocean has an amazing view. Vince is super friendly and funny. The beds are very comfortable. Room was better than the pictures. We would definitely stay here again!

8/10 Very good

Was convenient spot to stay, clean and cozy. Friendly staff
Kelly, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Basic but all you need.

We chose to stay here because of its location at the start of the Cabot trail and the lake views. It also offered the self catering facilities we like-microwave, coffee maker, kettle and toaster. However, the price indicated that the accommodation could be basic and it was. The furniture was a bit of a hotch potch and it could all do with redesigning and renewing. Then we would have been happy to pay double the price.

2/10 Poor

Disappointed

Hotels.app incorrectly booked me for the next day when I clearly entered the specific dates. Tried to cancel within 5 minutes, property refused - despite knowing it was an admin error & that I wouldn’t be staying there. The property seemed more interested in the money than doing the right thing.
Allison, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

The owner is very kind & friendly. The view of the lake is very beautiful and relaxing, a great way to start your day. Would return.
Rosylan, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

Nice view and owners. No A/C, worn mattresses

Small owner-managed motel with approx 8 units. Purchased by owners during COVID and they are slowly renovating the rooms. I started out in an older room. It appeared very clean, but the mattress showed caverns where two bodies would lie, showing wear in the mattress. I requested a different room and was given a partially renovated room. This room also showed the caverns for two bodies on the mattress but it seemed like they weren’t so deep. It was only two years old and a thick mattress probably high quality, and turned out ok for my previously injured back. It appeared thoroughly cleaned. There was no A/C machine at all and it was too hot. A large fan was provided but I don’t sleep well with fans. I opened the windows. Opened or not there were tiny bugs jumping on me. I swatted one and it was white so I have no idea what it was. The owner pointed to the swamp across the street as the source. Owner had a lovely disposition, the ocean view was fantastic. However the bugs, worn mattresses and lack of A/C would prevent me from returning.
