    Sadly, the restaurant next door was not open in early May (so the cooking facilities were much appreciated!)

    A standard motel room--a little old but with thoughtful amenities (fridg, toaster, coffee, etc) and a scenic location right on the water! Good base for driving the Cabot Trail.

    No shower curtain.. they probably forgot to put it up and it was too late to call and report. Also, even though there was a toaster, coffee maker, kettle, microwave plus refrigerator, there were no dishes or utensils. Great location and good value for the rate we paid.

    That the restaurant next door was closed but to find out that their season hadn't started as we were there the beginning of may and it wasn't mentioned. But all and all is was very good.

    I love ❤️ the view from our window. And the motel was right on the trail for cabot trail. As that was the reason for our trip.

    Currently (March 2024) the WiFi doesn't quite extend as far as room 8, which was of course where we were staying!

    The view was lovely (although a bit misty as we were staying out of season) and it's in a nice central location.

    Unfortunately there were a couple small maintenance issues such as the shower making a weird noise when in use, and the lampshade lining being broken (the light still worked, just the lampshade).

    The location is great, perfect as a jumping off point for Cape Breton and exploring the local towns, but also surprisingly peaceful for being so close to a main road. The view across the water is stunning, even on more gloomy days. Additionally, Vince and Tina were super helpful and knowledgeable about the local area, and speaking to them both was a pleasure.

    This motel is located on the entrance to the Cabot trail. The location is central in Cape Breton island and provides easy access in all direcrions. The rooms are positioned lakeside, providing relaxing and quiet atmosphere. The owners live just there and are very helpful.

    Nothing. Late check- in was accommodated, area advice was exceptional, extremely clean and tidy and comfortable room.

    Pleasantly suprised - was expecting a budget strip hotel and instead had extremely high level of personal service from all staff, high quality inclusions in the room and a view for morning sunrise (or evening sunset) over the water that was exception. Yes, this may appear to be a standard hotel room, but the managers have gone all out to add nice touches (types of products provided for bathrooms and kitchen) that raise the standard quite a lot

    The location of this motel is great, on the water, with great views. While the property is a bit worn, the rooms are priced accordingly and the space was comfortable. Staff was friendly and generous with information about the area, including eating spots in nearby Baddeck.

    The Bathroom need and update.

    Good accommodation, very well located in the area of ​​St Annes Bay, perfect for travelers doing the Cabot trail. The price-quality ratio is very good, the rooms and furniture are a little dated, however, nothing to worry about. The view from the rooms is dreamlike. The manager very friendly.

    To have the smoking in one area away from the rooms, to prevent the smell coming in to room, and outlets by the bed for phone charging at night, stir sticks for the coffee station.

    To start the service was absolutely amazing very welcoming and so many good suggestions, the room was perfect really comfortable bed and the view was breath taking! The interior has been updated from previous reviews and was very nice and clean. The location is perfect, it is right at the beginning of the Cabot trail, and not far from many great restaurants!
