How bad could it be for one night (we thought)….HORRIBLE! We should’ve read the other reviews on Trip Advisor and saved ourselves the headache. Upon arrival we were “greeted” by a confrontational front desk manager- she kept demanding more money for our child, which we had no issues paying for. We should’ve checked the room before checking it…dirty, smelly and contains something (mold? Cat hair?) that triggered a major allergy attack for my husband! We called hotels.com to see if we could re-book somewhere else but when they spoke with the manager she refused a refund. We honestly thought we could tough it out in a less than stellar motel for just one night but really regretting that decision! Read the other reviews about the crazy manager/ it’s no joke, and the place is an absolute dive. Don’t waste your money. Go elsewhere!

BEWARE!!! Manager is crazy!!! Booked room on booking.com. Called motel to ask for late check out (1 hr past regular) and wanted to charge me 1/2 day. Completely unreasonable. Manager tried to charge me 2nd time at check in. When I told her I alredy paid through booking.com she got hostile and abusive. I phoned booking.com and had them speak to her. She accused me of calling a friend and trying to scam her. Accused me of being a thief and threatened to call RCMP. Booking.com manager called her and she still refused to acknowledge payment. Flipped out on my gf. Refused to check us in. Wouldn’t let us use restroom while we waited 2 hrs for her and booking.com to try to work things out. GF forced to pee in bushes beside hotel office (very humiliating). Did not honour booking.com agreement. We had to move to other hotel. DO NOT STAY HERE!!!! Manager is a lunatic!!! It should be asylum not a motel!!!!!

We booked two rooms and two days in advance, we wanted to change this to one room and were told their policy is we have to make changes at least 7 days in advance (every place I have stayed in the last 20 years is 24 hrs and some places is zero advance time!!). Then, my daughter went into labour as we arrived and I tried to cancel because of this family emergency and were told the same line. I even offered to pay half rates but they wouldn't budge one dime. Looking at the other reviews I can see why no one wants to stay here as there weren't many cars in the parking lot. Terrible business practices ;-(

We stayed one night. Said it was pet friendly. That must mean you get the worst room. We are not fussy but really!?!?!!!! Old old beds. Big hot water tank I bathroom. Asked for more pillows as the ones in the room were so flat. Everything so old and decrepit. Just sad. Please don't say you're pet friendly if that means the room is your worst. Would not recommend this motel.

This place is filthy, run down, and absolutely desperate. We booked here due to the fact they had a "family" room. The beds were extremely uncomfortable, and the mattresses were filthy. We bought bleach to clean everything in the cupboards, and bathroom before we used it. Not to mention we were woken by some other patrons yelling at each other out in front of our room. The lady at the motel did nothing about this,and made no attempt to apologize and assure us it was not a normal thing.
The fridge didn't work, the toilet didn't flush properly, and all the furniture in the room looked like garage sale rejects. The room smelt as bad as it looked as well.
We checked out early to go stay in another hotel, and of course with the seven day cancellation policy we didn't get our refund. I understand why they do this, as I am sure they have lots of people that leave early.
DON'T DO IT!

This hotel has no window screens, no air condition so no way to keep it cool. Tons of spider webs. Bathroom floor is dirty Door does't shut Beds are small doubles. No many things good about this hotel. I booked four nights staying three and they still made me pay for four even though I cancelled three days in advance. Most hotels are 24 hours

Stayed 2 nights over the labour day weekend and wished I had looked around for a better deal but it was late at night. You can see in the photos that I have included that it would appear that these folks obtained the furnishings by the roadside for free. The bathroom door in the cabin would not close because the hot water tank was in the way. Many of the furnishings were broken, the chairs were spray painted and badly worn. The only things I would say on the plus side were that the room was clean, nice new TV and the bed was comfortable. My advice...stay somewhere else.

We were also expecting more. Our reserved room was rented to someone else. We got another in the place that was too broad. The room smelled musty. Decrepit atmosphere. However, not far from the ferry. Kitchen is not much. It is found together some kitchen utensils.

This motel was visited by a single mother and her 3 kids! She could severe black mold growing in the room and when she asked to be moved they wanted her to pay extra! I don’t recommend staying here unless you want to get sick or be treated poorly! Gross rooms and a gross management!
