Not a happy camper!

We were supposed to have a king bed but upon arrival told there was a problem with the king bedroom so we had 2 queens which we agreed. Little we know they were renovating the king bedroom which was directly over the 2 queen bed room. First of all there is a large screen TV in our room but there was no live TV, no sports, no news, no movies etc unless you subscribed to Prime, Sportsnet, Netflix etc so we went to bed at 1030 and the noise above us continued all night. I yelled at them at 2:00 and again at 4:00 and it continued. They were dropping tools and stomping around all night. I was going to ask for a refund from Hotels.ca. This was definitely the worst hotel.ca experience we ever had. I would not recommend this hotel. There were no black out drapes, and the ceilings seemed to be thin enough that when the tools hit the floor above we could not only hear it but we felt it. There was no front desk person to complain to and I believe the workers may have been the owner’s family.

This place is ridiculously overpriced. It should be $120 -150 a night . It has a lot of potential, but it seems the owners could not care less. I know one couple left soon after arrival. There are a number of cottages nearby to stay in which offer better value The restaurant below is in fact very good and even has live entertainment

Was cheaper than other motel/hotel stays and clean

It was noisy outside of my room at night and early in the morning. If anyone decided to stay do not get a room at the back of the building too noisy.

Two Nights Bday Weekend

This was a bday couples weekend for us and we stayed in room 7. At check in, the TV was not operational and there was no cold water in the shower. This was our first ever scalding hot shower at a hotel. Our concerns were discussed with Michelle who was responsible for the front desk and was very empathic and diligent about getting the issues resolved. However, the shower needs to be renovated as well as the plumbing. The room is small with a comfortable king bed and the AC works and we were grateful for this. The cost for this hotel is over priced. It’s not worth it.

This is a older but lovely little spot. The rooms are small but comfy. Very close to the beach, maybe a 5 min. walk. The staff were wonderful. There is a place to eat and they even had live entertainment, which was excellent. Your about a 10 min walk from the downtiwn area. It was a perfect spot for me and my friend.

I needed just a bed for the night. It suits my needs. The room is small in comparison to other hotels I've been in but when u consider the type of place and location it makes sense. It has got an onsite pizza place and another burger joint, so dont have to travel.far for food. The beach is like a 5 minute walk!
