Cozy motel
Family of 4 stayed in the suite with two bedroom for one night. It’s an older motel, but clean and well kept. My only issue was the AC is in the window of the living room, so the bedrooms were a little hot. Other than that, I would stay again.

For a quick night’s stay along the way that doesn’t break the bank, this place is great! It is nothing fancy, but it is very clean, comfortable bed, mini fridge and microwave, wifi, and lots of tv options. The staff is very friendly and helpful, and there is a restaurant on site that offers home delicious cooked meals all day.

This place is obviously taken care of with a whole lot of pride. The room was spotless, and there were no maintenance issues.
Thank you.
The only thing is that the decor is dated, and the floor was damp. Not sure why that was.

Thanks.
Hosts were attentive, and went above requirement to make the stay good during a family funeral. Not our first time staying, and will be back. The bed was very comfortable.

One night stay while travelling east from BC. Room was comfortable but seemed small compared to other stays on our route. Thankful for pet friendly room for our cat.

Paid more than what was on the web site for that day. Not overly friendly. Said restaurant was open till 8 pm. Door was closed at six when we went. Ate across the street at an amazing Chinese restaurant (Three Aces)

The office and restaurant was very odorous. Remained on my clothes. Location helpful. Screen on door let mosquitoes in. Also, something sticky on floor beside bed. It had not been dusted. Coffee was good in the room. Large green space for stretchjbg legs and for dogs or kids

EXTREMELY DIRTY. There were few options in this area, but honestly, I regret not just sleeping under the bridge. I did not end up sleeping at all because I couldn’t t risk the filthy sheets or possibly bed bugs (didn’t see any, but you rarely do). Do yourself a favour, keep driving to Sault Saint Marie and spare yourself the Staph infection (not that I got one, if you stay here you’ll understand)

We liked the grounds and was close enough to walk through the Iron Bridge and learn about it's history.
I would recommend this place for a one night stay.
Close enough to drive to other restaurants and gas station.
Room was clean and beds were comfortable.
