We slept like babies in the comfortable beds! The room is spacious and super clean. Lady at registration was friendly and effective! All in all, a really good place to stay for a fair price in the area.
Marie-Josee, 1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

We stayed 1 night in a room with two queen beds, which we found really comfortable. The bathroom looked newly renovated and was very clean. Very convenient location on the cabot trail. Just 1 restaurant nearby, which is nothing fancy but all we needed. Spent the evening at a fantastic beach nearby. I would recommend this stop and would stay here again.

8/10 Good

The lady at the front desk was funny, energetic and very fun to deal with! The room was clean, and had been renovated lately. Even with the AC on, it was a bit humid, but this was during a very hot week, so that might be why. A good stay, with a very nice view!!
