Do not go - run down and dirty

Room 1 - Very run down, bathroom is filthy. We used towels to stop the cold wind coming in the door. Took almost 2 hours to get the room at a decent temp. Positive - bed was comfy and no bugs.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
This was a quiet motel that served its purpose for me (rest stop between destinations). Nothing outstanding. Room had an older TV, desk, chairs, mini-fridge, and coffee machine. Bedding, towels, bathroom and other surfaces were clean, and staff was friendly enough. Heat was a bit confusing at first, but worked well once I got it going. Bed was a little bouncy for my liking, but I was able to get a good night’s sleep, shower, and be on my way. Sobeys and Subway around the corner was convenient. I would stay here again if I needed a low-key place to crash for the night.

Great location and good price. It's right near big Sobeys store for groceries etc and MacDonalds - both I think open until 9pm. MacDonalds opens at 6am - great if catcing the 7am ferry to PEI. The parking lot coming in is a bit chaotic and our room was a bit run down. It can also be a bit noisy with main roundabouts at doorstop and hectic comings and goings. But absolutely great for anyone on road trip - and the Caribou to Wood Island (NS > PEI) car ferry.
