Hot breakfast brought to your room at your convenience. They're obviously working hard to make improvements. Host is friendly and courteous. Close to two national and two provincial parks.

Looks like lots of work is getting done and it was very clean and peaceful. Would suggest new hand soap though :)

Stop over on way to PEI
Cute little motel that we stayed I. During our trip to PEI. The motel is outdated and needs some TLC. The owner is super friendly and cares about his business and guests. It has the potential to be a special place.

Great little out of the way Motel.
Very nice little hotel a bit off the beaten path. Couple who run the hotel were very welcoming and kind! Went out of their way to make sure we got the the right building and room. Our room was small but perfect with all we needed for a comfortable stay.

This property isn't in the best of condition. It seems like it's being rehabbed a bit at a time. Disorganized and messy- definitely not worth the price charged. Much sloppy DIY maintenance readily seen. The toilet was connected to the hot water feed, for example. There are better options in the area.

Nice stay!
Older motel with updated room. We enjoyed a comfortable overnight stay. Owner was very nice and showed us to our room and how to use heat, TV, etc. and welcomed us. We had to leave early morning so we didn’t have any breakfast items. We’d stay here again if we’re in the area.

The room was clean and neat,but there was a crew there tearing the roof off of the office section and throwing the debris in a dump trailer. This left my truck covered in dust from the demolition.

The Pine Cone motel exceeded our expectations! The rooms were clean and the staff are SO friendly. We were welcomed with smiles and a tour of our room. We loved to continental breakfast that consisted of homemade muffins and scones. We will definitely be stopping here on our yearly visit to the area! The price was very fair for the experience we had.

It's a nice place, near Sussex and some other towns. There's not a lot to it, but the staff is nice and accommodating. The room was very clean, especially for a motel, towels, soap, toilet paper, garbages, sheets, and everything else is replaced and replenished daily.

Owners greeted us and went out of their way to make us comfortable and familiar with their property. Great bed, bathroom renovated, no carpets 👍. Small fridge and microwave. Unit is small but sufficient for the two of us for one night. Great restaurant across the street

We arrived late (after 10 pm). I called to inform them that we would be late, the woman (owner) was super kind, and stated she would wait for us. When we did arrive she was so warm and friendly! She gabe us the key and informed us anout breafast etc. Her husband walked us to our room, he even carried in our full sized cooler! He showed us how the tv/satellite worked, and he informed us about breakfast etc. Thry went above and beyond what they needed to, simply because he and his wife are so very kind. My daughter and I traveled from Ontario to Cape Breton and back, and of every hotel/motel we stayed in, this one was great! Se furniture was dated but very clean and in great shape. The bed was comfortable, the room was clean and breakfast was great! Muffins and scones were baked in-house, not store bought! You dont find that too often. When my daughter returned the key upon checkout the husband told my daughter to take the leftover muffins & scones and to grab herself a drink to go. These folks are great people doing a fine job! Will absolutely go back!

Homemade scones were the BEST I’ve ever had. I would stay again for those alone! The room and beds were comfortable. The location was about forty minutes to the Fundy National Park, but Thats what happens when you plan a summer trip at the last minute. I would definitely recommend the Pine cone Motel.

I had not realized I didn’t book a night on our trip until 2 days before needing a room, this came up on Travelocity and it was amazing. Definitely a hidden gem. The rooms have been updated and are clean. The staff is so friendly and the breakfast was excellent (homemade blueberry biscuits and muffins - so delicious!)!!

Although the motel is older the owners have made every effort to make the guests comfortable. From the home made scones for breakfast, to the the wireless phone charger on the bedside lamp. Best travel bargain around! We stayed here on our way to the Bay of Fundy NP and went out of our way to stay here again on our way home.
