Horrible, smells like animal pee in room. Front desk said carpets were just cleaned, and have us an empty bottle of Jazzee to spray. Bugs in room. Uncomfortable beds and pillows. No a/c.

This is something that you are seeing driving over Lake Superior. People buying old run down properties and working tirelessly to fix them up. It is not fancy or spectacular, but the room was very clean and pretty comfortable. The staff were extremely courteous and attentive. I would (and most likely will) stay there again!

Really appreciated staff accommodated a slightly early check-in, as the time of our event got moved ahead with little notice. Was disappointed there was no A/C- as the ad led us to believe there would be. The sofa bed in cottage 2 is not very comfortable and could use updating. The chip truck was not open- and restaurant options were extremely limited in Wawa (many businesses have closed or keep unusual hours). The wifi did not work, and neither did the DVD player. It was fine for a night, and was booked fairly last minute.

Convenient location off of the highway. Room and bedding was comfortable. Bathroom was renovated and very clean. It is a rustic motel that we find charming and have stayed here numerous times while passing through Wawa.

So it is a motel. However we are travelling across Canada and our last motel stay was excellent. This one is quite run down though I think they are trying to renovate some rooms. Water pressure very bad sometimes barely coming out. Presume it’s when everyone runs it. Carpet very dirty. Beds were clean and comfortable. Too $$ for pets to stay compared with every other motel or other accommodation so far. Would likely not return but it was convenient as it is right on the hwy

Wonderful Stay

Great stay at the Northern Lights Motel & Chalets. The rooms were very clean with all the extras you didn't even know you needed (corkscrew, etc). Beds were comfortable and the staff was super friendly and helpful.
