Everything about our experience here was great. The room was clean, front desk people were friendly. The room was like having your own little 2 bedroom apartment, with a kitchen and living room. Will definitely look into staying her again when ever we come to a show at the Decoste Centre.

Room nice with 2 double beds, bathroom small but very clean. Kitchenette a bit underwhelming but we didnt use. its a great location to enjoy Pictou and the waterfront as short, easy drive. Had issues turning on tv but didnt really need it. Would stay there again, like having outside access to room.

Quick check in and polite. Surprised to have to pay $10 cash for early arrival as room was already empty. Decent room and bathroom which was appreciated. Parking directly outside of door. Location great for access to local amenities

Budget stay

This is a budget motel. The rooms are comfortable and clean, but the facility could use a major renovation. The price was right for a one night stay. Be aware, there are no frills. There was only one cup for the coffee maker in the room.

Staff was pleasant, helpful and accommodating. The rooms were clean and the bathroom has been recently updated. But the entire property could use freshening. Good for the price. But the photos are obviously dated.

Staff was very friendly, price was good and beds were very comfortable. However the cottage we were in was very run down with dirty carpets and broken blinds in most windows.

Everything was clean except for dust on the top of the headboards. Bedding was clean & fresh & it was nice to have a little kitchenette. Very convenient location for the ferry & very close to grocery store etc.
