Staff was very friendly and room was nice. It’s not the fanciest place in the world, but exactly what we were looking for. A quiet place to rest our heads in between visiting the Amusement park and water park. Would recommend.

The room is big with kitchenette, newly renovated. The staff is nice as he let us moved to other room, because the room given to us had cigarette smell. The nightly cost of the room is affordable too.

Place was okay.. very average place to stay. Quiet at night, some lawn chairs to relax in just outside the room door… didn’t go to the coffee shop/ restaurant so I can’t comment on that but overall it was pretty good. Price was a little high for what the room looked like though.

We were in town for the CBMF. No complaints about our stay. We had a dinette unit that was nice and spacious. We were unable to hear neighboring rooms. The staff were nice and friendly, the lady especially. Thank you.

While our room was nice and big, it wasnt the cleanest. Under the bed had significant dust and debris. The sinks hadnt been cleaned in a while. The room was very hot and the curtainsblocked the A/C. It was, however, very quiet. Easy parking. Nice and close to Confederation Bridge.

A quick stop for an overnight. Very convenient. Only complaint was too few electric outlets. Could not plug in 2 phones and 2 iPads plus hearing aids because outlets were needed for A/C , fridge and lamps. But all in all a good stay.

Nice little stop

Nice little place to stop. Wouldn’t stay more than one night. A/C was noisy and did not work very well. Blanket had holes in it, replaced without a problem. Food was good in the cafe.

Older (50's style) drive up motel. Family owned. Room was large & clean. TV worked OK, w cable, but few channels. Unfortunately I stayed on an unseasonably cold night, & there was no heat in the room. Got very cold. Clock in my room did not work, & smoke detector chirping for a new battery. Got a lot of noise & cigarette smoke from adjoining rooms. I mentioned the smoke detector upon check out, but not sure the man understood what I meant. Seemed to have limited English comprehention

Close to the bridge. Room was small and basic. Dried blood in several spots on one bedspread - forgot to point it out to them. Have to borrow hair dryer from front desk. They have a restaurant that you can purchase breakfast. Has BBQ out back but I didn’t check the condition. Relatively inexpensive but you get what you pay for. Ok for a night.
