Walls were scuffed and dirty. There was a used facial tissue and some plastic packaging discarded under one of the beds. The curtains were worn and ripped, one of the lamps was falling apart potentially exposing bare wires and there was no security chain on the door. The photos on the website look nice but the room we were in was awful.

Renovation materials lying around the place. Restaurant poor. Room accessible only with key. Bathroom very small and toilet seat unsecured. Stained carpet. Damaged headboard. Also, when I tried to cancel 48 hours before checking in was told by hotel owner and Expedia that 72-hour notification required. This reflects badly on the hotel and Expedia.

Not great for those staying with young families. The bar underneath played super loud music all night. The exterior of the building had no siding on it which was sketchy. We stayed in a renovated room. The room was ok. Clean. However there was no lamp so the main overhead was all we had. There was also no top sheet on the bed, just a comforter. The bathroom fan was super noisy and there were a few fixtures in the bathroom that appeared to be unfinished. The only positive was that the location was really great in the summer. A short walk to the marina, a little playground, walkable to an okay restaurant and ice cream parlour across the street.

The manager was very nice, they accommodated our dog. The room itself was also very nice and they are working on the exterior of the building, which definitely needs some attention. I did not care for the stairs, or that there was only one set to go up and down in the weather. We were also given a room with an adjoining suite that was locked. We could hear a lot of noise through that door from the other guests, noises that our kids definitely did not need to hear. Make sure you don’t have an attached suite to your room, unless you have a large party and rent the other room. The area is safe and close to a coffee shop, park and restaurants, so that was good. Overall, except for the other guests and thin walls, our stay was fine for a night on our way to our destination.

Lots of potential, also lots to fix
Stayed one night. Some positives but unfortunately also some negatives. Great location and great view. Desk is open 24 hours you just need to ring the bell. Beds are comfortable and climate control works great. Hotel itself needs a fair bit of TLC. Outside is mid reno with construction material strewn about. Our room had old fish in the fridge and possibly mold on the wall and cigarette burns in the blanket. Also doors only have a doorknob key lock and no other safety measure.

Max - our host - works hard to make your stay enjoyable. He and his crew (family) are progressively renovating the rooms and they are just wonderful inside. The outside, however, is a bit unsettling. When I first drove up I wondered "What have I gotten myself into?!!" Upholstered chairs outside that are cracked and fading, weeds growing through the pavers, peeling paint on the front door, old fridges sitting outside, stacks of cardboard... I've mentioned this to Max and I know he's aware and wants to fix everything, but has to prioritize. Bottom line - the rooms are wonderful. As good as any chain hotel like Quality Inn, Super 8, Microtel, etc. I liked it well enough to stay there again on my return trip 5 days later! I should mention that the restaurant in the hotel is not part of the hotel, and you're not going to get German food! It's a pizza place, and it's the ONLY licensed restaurant in the town of Bruce Mills. Others have signs that say licensed, but they have since elected to stop serving alcohol.
