Cute little place right off the highway and right across the road from the liquor store. Very quiet at night. Cozy rooms with everything you need! It was a little crowded with 3people in one room but it was perfect for what we needed. I'd definitely stay here again! The owners were super nice too.

Room is as shown in the photos from others. Easy to book and locate. I stayed for one night and checking in was easy. I let them know I would be checking in later and the staff accommodated. Room was clean, shower pressure was good, and it was easy to park my car. Check out was quick. There were people staying in the unit next to us and I didn’t hear any noise. Overall, great experience and it met my needs for a place to stay for one night. Motel is conveniently close to Cape Breton National Park.
