It was a good place to stop on a long road trip. It’s not fancy, but it does the job. The bedding was good, and the price is right.

It looks like it was built in the 70’s and any repair was just a patch job. Very outdated and overpriced.

This is a cheap motel in a gas station parking lot, next to a busy highway. It served its purpose as somewhere to stop for the night and that’s about it. Was over priced for what you got. Lesson learned here.

It’s a little rundown, but very clean and very convenient to the highway. There’s a Tim Hortons and a gas station within a one minute walk. So there’s food nearby. It’s a drive up motel and you can park right outside your room door, which is very convenient.

We stayed one night at our trip start point on the way from Toronto towards Nova Scotia. A room was clean with good parking with easy access to gas station, tim horton, & convenience store within 2 min walking zone. But no receptiom desk would make you feel uncomfortable. Before checking in, you should be prepared & communicate with motel or expedia for motel via email or text to get the room info with acceas code.
Other than that it was a very convenient and comfortable motel for us as bypasser!

When we got there their where wasp in bedroom notice where put air conditioning in bedroom there was opening in window so wasp could get in in fact any type of bugs could get in. Contact owner he came with tape to patch no excuse didn't say he was sorry he should take the time to do things properly so his motel doesn't look run down.

Run down. Smells smokey. No one onsite. Received a text with door code. There is a Keurig coffee machine and only 2 pods, one medium roast and one dark roast. We both like medium! Thank goodness there is a Tim Hortons and a gas station with a convenience store right next door. We don't recommend this property and will travel a little further and pay a little more next time.

Clean, comfortable, close to the highway. 10 minutes from a large town with lots of dining options. There's a Tim Horton across the parking lot so breakfast and coffee is good.
