The title says it all. We were looking for a place to stay and having no luck. The trip was a last minute impulse. The rooms were terrible. Damp, old, sheets had holes. My skin crawled all night and needless to say we didn't stay for breakfast. More

We stayed here on a trip to Cape Breton Island. The first room was used and not clean. The second non smoking room had been used by smokers and an attempt had been made to cover the smell with spray. It was impossible to breathe in said room so we asked for a third. This room was just OK. Aged... More

The room was filthy, the bathroom looked like it hadn't been cleaned in years. Besides the flat screen tv, nothing in the hotel has been updated since the... More

From the Rooms to the most ignorant housekeepers ever, to the smell and dirt of the place you would be better staying in a hostel.It was the worst room i have ever been in .We will never return and i hope noone else has the misfortune of staying there either.Looks like a converted crack shack.
