10/10 Exceptional

The rate was reasonable and the room was sufficient.
Stephen, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

Good view/location. Friendly staff. Property and beds/pillows etc need to be seriously updated and replaced.
Ralph, 2-night trip

6/10 Good

Moderate experience but the price seems to be higher for such a property
Rushi, 2-night trip

4/10 Fair

Do not stay here, even for a single night! It is dirty, with bugs in rooms, and staff clueless!
michel, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

Located in a nice residential area but poorly clean, bed sheets smelling, found the floor dirty and bathroom not that cleanliness we expect for.
Camila, 1-night trip

Room was very stuffy and smelly
Tammy, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

We did an eleven day visit to the Maritimes. This was the cheapest hotel on our trip. The price is on point for what you get. The check in was quick, easy and friendly. The water pressure & temp was perfect. The bed was not the most comfortable BUT we were on the last day before heading home and passed out quickly anyways. It was a dark and quiet room, no off smells. The room is dated but oddly, it had the better TV & channel options than many of our stays. For the budget traveller this is a great option.
Teresa, 1-night trip

2/10 Poor

Garbage cans place in front of the room permanently. Wooden deck in poor condition. Storm door broken, no knob. Rugs are old and dirty!
James, 3-night trip

2/10 Poor

This room was terrible! It was dirty and dingy. There was a broken window that had been boarded up. The screen door was all bashed in. The bed was lumpy and the sheets and pillows were stained. There were no towels in the room and the front desk worker kept leaving the property making it difficult to get anything. The chain lock on the door was broken so we felt unsafe with the little lock in the doorknob.
Diane, 1-night trip

4/10 Fair

There’s no light fixture in the bathroom and no towel bars. There’s no screens in the windows or entrance door. The cable box is dangling from the wall. The stained rug is smelly and humid. There’s no light coverings for the lights on the ceiling. It does NOT look like what they show in their pictures on the website. The beds are super old and there’s planks for the box spring to hold together. The gentlemen who served me was super friendly and nice. He made me feel welcomed but the room needs a major upgrade!
Gabrielle, 1-night trip

2/10 Poor

The staff was lovely but the room was very unclean. Stunk of cigarettes and there was burn holes in the bedding. Empty alcohol bottles and cans everywhere. We left immediately. The staff was lovely and looked defeated. My heart goes out to them but I couldn't stay there with my immune compromised husband and children

Very good service
Jen, 4-night trip

The motel is very shabby, not well maintained and the room has bare minimum, not even a bedside lamp, the shower curtain is falling apart,the blue bathtub was painted white and the paint is coming off, the room was not very clean, garbage bin not emptied, it’s noisy outside with the traffic.

DON'T GO THERE! We found beg bugs in a bed. We arrived late, so we called at midnight, no answer We left during the night. The morning after we called to tell them and ask for a refund, the guy told us they had bedbugs but not in that section of the motel ?! The didnt want to give us a refund. Expedia neither

6/10 Good

Ce n’est pas sérieux!

Pour ma part, je serais très gêné de faire la location d’un tel endroit. Le coût est largement trop élevé pour un motel en décrépitude!
Stephan, 1-night trip

4/10 Fair

Staff was great. Rooms need some work.
Martin, 1-night trip

2/10 Poor

That was our worst decision during our road trip. We took the place in rush, because we hadn’t planned in advance. The bath tub drain was plugged, the sink drain was plugged, the bed sheet had blood spots on, the garbage can was full from the previous visitors Although the reception refunded 1/3 of our money, but did they bring our night back? Avoid this place if you only want a nice shower and a pleasant sleep, because you won’t get them.
Ali, 1-night trip
