Disliked: Staff & service, amenities
Check in was easy, convenient. Room was extremely small. No problem as a solo traveller with the toilet and shower in same space as bed, however I kept getting caught by the table, bed legs, etc. as the space was too small. Garbage in the room hadn’t been emptied before I arrived as well. Off the beaten track, not worth it for the trek across from Ontario to New Brunswick as there are similar prices and better places in the same price point.

Definite no frills with min

The bed is sooooo uncomfortable you toss and turn all night trying to get comfortable. The pillows have so much depth that you wake up with pain, ps squeezing them down only works for a maybe. 10-15 seconds and then the spring back up. The shelf at the head of the bed, dangerous.. not attached to the bars so could tilt off and hurt like hell when you hit your head. Forget hanging your clothes there unless you want to sleep with your head in them. The shower, the head is unadjustable and in order to get in when you have the right water temp you get water sprayed on the floor. The step between the bed flooring and sink, shower, toilet, not a good idea. I guess there is no area tv programming. They do not replenish or enter the rooms to replenish coffee at least. It was a very tight fit room. Not a place to share as no privacy. Table did not open up, night fit chair against the door.

Chambre très propre, mais très mal isolé pour le bruit. Le plancher pas à niveau, le lit était très inconfortable à cause du penchant, les objets sur la table glisse dû au penchant du plancher et la porte de douche ne reste pas fermée puisque ce n’est pas à niveau. Une nuit c’était trop, nous avons très mal dormi et avons eu des courbatures due à l’inconfort du lit. Le Corridor sentait le Pot. J’ai essayé de contacter quelqu’un pour une information et malheureusement c’était un ordinateur, ça sonnait sans cesse pour parler à un interlocuteur, mais personne répondait.

Outside of property is a bit run down but rooms have been updated and modern. Room was a bit small best suited to solo travellers. If you have a lot of luggage, it may be inconvenient as reaching the room requires going up two sets is stairs. Amenities inside the room were great.

We arrived at the hotel in the evening and at first thought it was closed because there were many cobwebs at the entrance. To enter, we had to call and get the door code. Since we don’t speak French, we were very thankful to a kind gentleman on the first floor who helped us, and thanks to him we were able to check in smoothly. The hotel operates without staff on site, which we only realized upon arrival, but the room itself was clean and we had a comfortable stay for the night. If the entrance area were kept cleaner and the cobwebs removed, it would create a much better first impression.

Entrée avec code, aucun personnel sur place mais communication facile avec poste informatique à la réception. Chambre très petite mais avec tous les services. Idéal pour 1 ou 2 personnes très à l’aise ensemble car salle de bain dans même pièce que lit et table (rideau d’intimité seulement). Toilette commune aussi dispo sur l’étage. Tout dans la chambre était très propre, aspect neuf. Epicerie et 2-3 restos biens à 3 min à pieds. Frigo assez grand et micro-onde. Tv câblé. Clim efficace. Musique de la taverne dessous audible en soirée (juste la base en sourdine) mais cessait vers 22:00 je crois.

Nous recevons un code pour ouvrir la porte d’entrée et l’enregistrement se fait de façon virtuelle. Probablement une façon de faire qui se fera de plus en plus pour l’ayant vécu auparavant. Notre chambre n’ayant pas été nettoyée il a été facile d’en avoir une autre. Le seul hic c’est que la toilette est derrière un rideau. Le ménage laisse un peu à désirer mais dans l’ensemble ce n’est pas une expérience négative.

The only thing that I didn’t care for was having to walk up to my room, as I was travelling by motorcycle, and had to carry a heavy top case up a narrow staircase, and the television only seemed to have channels in French, and was a bit confusing to try and figure out, so I just gave up, and turned it off! Other than that the room was recently renovated, nicely decorated.
