The place was clean and convenient, bed were comfortable. Having a microwave was nice. Did not like the fact that they no longer had regular cable TV so if you didn't have a service of your own ie, Prime, Bell Fibe etc. there was no TV to watch. Towels were also thin and need to be replaced,

You need to have normal cable tv so folks can relax and enjoy their staff. Steaming is far from being for everyone and cheating your clients out of this service to save a few dollars is enough

Average on the low side

We had booked this hotel to split the road between Moncton and Ingonish. Travelling with a 10 month old baby that needed to be fed when we got there. I figured checking in would be easy but all my drivers liscence data, address, phone number was diarised and the process took forever with no words being exchanged… when this process was finally over and after I signer and ignitial a bunch of stuff I asked for a crib for the baby it was like they never heard of this before. The guy told me this is something I should’ve asked for before but would look into it. He did so and tried calling our room while we were gone to eat supper. The building is old, smells weird and the elevator is scary but the room was ok, bottle of water included. It was calm and we slept well. On the drive back we decided not to stay there again and booked something in Truro instead.

No regular TV - only streaming services. Hot tub and pool close very early. Towels were threadbare. No front desk clerk at check in for 5 minutes. There is really nothing redeeming about this hotel.

Restaurant was not open till 8 am Sunday and we had to leave by then, Restaurant was closed Monday. Very inconvenient. TV is streaming only so you need subscriptions or the desk clerk has to come to your room to set it up. Not user friendly for seniors,

The website advertised “BREAKFAST INCLUDED”. We are familiar with Justamere Cafe, and this was the reason for selecting your hotel. After booking we did not receive any notice that the cafe would be closed, and the breakfast offered was TIM HORTON’S GIFT CARDS! If we wanted a Tim Horton breakfast we could have booked anywhere, but we were offered a neat little bait and switch instead. Really not cool. And sorry doesn’t really mean anything when you’re not providing what your website had promised.
