The room was clean. The wifi was poor to nonexistent. The website advertised complimentary breakfast which they did not offer. The restaurant was closed down.

Conveniently located on highway, close to shopping and on water front that makes for a nice walk down the marina. However the check in was not very easy and the staff made any question feel like an inconvenience.

Pros: Room was newly renovate. Great location right next to the Bruce Mines Marina. Cons: Bed only had fitted sheet and comforter, no top sheet. Fitted sheet had yellow stains. Bed squeaked everytime you moved. Not very sound proof. Heard people talking throughout the night into the early morning. Restaurant on site permanently closed.

Very clean. Kosmos pizza on site. Centrally located in town. Beside marina. Ice cream shop and copper café right across the highway. Walking trails and restaurants nearby. Portions of the hotel are dated, but the bathroom was recently renovated and the bed was comfortable.

Unfortunately some rooms are better then others. New owner over the years has done some upgrades. Restaurant on-site is permanently closed...so no food or beverages. Beds, washrooms, floors are clean. Lots of parking for trailers. Park on site for kids and a great view of the water. The past 2 visits tho I've noticed a fair amount of spider webbs all over the ceilings.

We had 2 beds and a sofa bed. If you had the sofa bed open you could not walk around the end of the beds. You had to climb over the beds to get to the bathroom or exit. Bathroom is wonderful, modern and clean. Loved that it was close to a park and marina. Beautiful area. Wifi code was given but the WIFI did not work (yes the code was entered properly) overall good place to stay. But not great if you need a place for 5 ppl.

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The bed seemed fresh and was comfortable. The bathroom was clean and recently updated. The air conditioner was quiet and cooled the room well. The rest of the room was very dated. The window was dirty with some cobwebs. The sidewalk in front of the room was littered with cigarette buts. Hard to say how clean the carpet was. I stood at the front desk a long while waiting for someone to appear. Even after pressing the counter bell twice and phoning the cell number that the sign on the counter told me to call. To sum it up, the room was costly for what it offered and I won’t stay there again.

The motel was dated but our room was renovated. The bed was comfortable and the room was clean on the surface. It could use some cleaning of the window and baseboards. The towels and linens were nice. Overall satisfactory.
