The motel itself is a little older but honestly nothing to fuss about with the service/cleanliness and location. ##### Sharnia Stayed 5 nights in Mar 2025 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Edward 13 Jul 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Great Motel A lovely place with a great view of the bay! Can feel a little bit exposed, the lacy blinds are a little bit too see through. Would also be really nice if there were hooks by the door to hang coats etc. Great location, walking distance to all the tourist things! ##### Edward Stayed 3 nights in Jul 2025 Verified ### 8/10 Good #### Greg 3 Mar 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities Owner was happy to organise our outings for us after we discussed what the best options were. ##### Greg Stayed 3 nights in Feb 2025 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Sherri 15 Dec 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Super friendly host. ##### Sherri Stayed 2 nights in Dec 2024 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Robert 17 Dec 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Convenient to wharf.
