we were pleasantly surprised at how convenient the motel was. The room was tidy and clean and the heater was on when we arrived on a wet cold day. A lovely touch and made us feel welcome. My husband is handicapped and the parking right outside made it easy. We will use the motel again.

I stayed for one night with a group of three while visiting the island. The front desk was friendly at check-in and check-out and provided excellent customer service! :) The room was great overall, and there was parking right outside the room. I would recommend it!!

Welcomed on arrival with a good chat, then another good chat on the way out. Room was way above what I thought it may be. I have a new favourite place to book a room now when I stay at the Island. I'd give them more than 5 stars if I could.
