Loved it, was probably the best motel I've ever been to. The staff is very friendly, and there is a very nice canal in the back. There is a bar in the lobby as well full of townies, and the rooms are nice. This is the place to stay if you're in the area.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
It's very basic, so if you're just looking for a place to sleep, it fits the bill. The room was clean. The staff was amazing. Absolutely gorgeous location right on the Rideau Canal.
Older building, needs to be updated, but room was clean and we loved the balcony overlooking the Rideau Canal and Lock.
Laundry mat, bowling alley, giant tiger, restaurants across parking lot.
Good location. No clear markings in the parking lot and less lights around the hotel.

It’s getting old, could use new carpets and electronics but I had a very nice room, it’s very clean, and staff were unfailingly courteous and helpful. I would certainly stay there again.

Liked: Staff & service
The location was quite pet friendly which was nice. The beds were clean. The carpets were old and needed to be replaced. It is an old hotel that is showing its age
Leaving out the age, the rooms are always clean, have comfortable beds, abundant hot water, and, Hassan, apologies if spelled wrong, is the most efficient, customer oriented and polite hotel staff for 100km at least. Always handles my simple issues instantly. I stay here for the caring staff more than anyqhere else.

Disliked: Property conditions & facilities
The staff was nice and the room was clean but t the place needs updating badly
The breakfast was toast, bagels, muffins etc. The room was clean, but the bathtub could use a better clean. There was plenty of parking. It was good for the 1 night we needed it for.
