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

There are signs that they are renovating and upgrading this motel. It is old and tired but our room had been upgraded and the bed was reasonably comfortable. The towels were okay - a bit thin.

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.

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.
