I saw the review from August 2011 reporting that the reviewer was assigned a room that had not been properly cleaned, but I decided to take a chance anyway because of the great location right across from the Soo Locks. My mother and I were meeting up with a childhood friend of my mother's, who was traveling with her son,... More

Great hotel, charming drive to your door style hotel. Friendly staff and right across the street from the lock viewing area. Quiet and close to shopping, restaurants and the best brew pub we've been to in our tour around Lake Superior! Soo Brewery www.soobrew.com/ and the Palace Saloon restaurant are both just a few blocks down the street. More

My wife and I recently completed a relaxing and comfortable two night stay at this well-run and well-maintained motel. We were in cabin 110, far enough off Portage avenue to provide quietude and privacy, but still only steps from the street and about 100 yards from the Soo Locks. At check in, we were given our first glimpse of how... More

We stayed at this motel because we wanted to see the Soo Locks. Part of this motel is a typical 2 story motel. Then there are cottages. We stayed in the motel. The room was large, very clean sweet-smelling and comfortable with a view of the locks. Most of all it was a great value for the price $70. for... More

Very well kept up older motel. Rooms very nicely decorated and exceptionally clean. Quiet location even though in the heart of downtown. Friendly staff. Loved the location for viewing the freighters which was just across the street from the motel and the reason for our stay. Nice continental breakfast. Cereal, pastries,breads. You could even make a muffin,egg,sausage sandwich. Our only... More

From the moment we drove in the parking lot we knew we found a special place. Think old school motel, neon sign out front, and an actual room key. Everything about this place was great, it is very clean and the staff is very friendly and attentive.. The location is phenomenol, it is centrally located downtown and right across the... More

Our first impression was a good one. The cottages are lined up in rows and flowers abound, a seeming step back in time to days of pleasant simplicity. Our check-in went smoothly and we entered our assigned cottage. A harsh odor of chemicals irritated my nose and throat but I wasn't going to complain. It was upon seeing the beds... More

This is a charming, family-style motel right across from the locks in Sault Ste. Marie. The bed was comfortable; everything was clean; price was very reasonable and included a continental breakfast, which was basic but sufficient - mainly breads and coffee. There are several restaurants on the same street within a few blocks. We had a nice, freshly made pizza... More

We stayed in one of the "cottage" units and were pleased with the facility. There was nothing special about the room, but it was clean and had adequate space for our needs. It included a refrigerator, and a small television that was positioned to the side of the room, making it less easily viewed by those in the far bed.... More

The room isn't bad for the money. Its nothing fancy but it comfortably fit the four of us. The beds are comfortable and nice. The bathroom could use a little work. When they created the layout they were not thinking about tall people. It was hard to sit on the toilet without my knees being in the wall. The shower... More
