Ok so they gave my room away and then had to scramble to get me a room which was #4
Not a good room. No hot water in shower, bed is lopsided and it’s a very tiny room but it was clean inside
The fan is very dirty and stinks it needs a good cleaning
But the restaurant is amazing
Really good food and reasonable prices the staff were awesome! It’s the restaurant that saved this place. We would eat there again.
Clean newly renovated room. gas station nextdoor, view of the lake and a really good restaurant open from 7am to 8pm. Convenient spot to stay before you get to the Cabot Trail. 2 thumbs up 👍👍

Beware of Room 4. Although the room was clean it is a renovated garage. Way too small and actually felt like staying in a garage. Not sure what the other rooms look like but stay away from this room. Would think twice about staying here again.
Would like a coffee maker in the room. However, when I went to the restaurant to get one she did not charge me because I was staying at the motel. Overall, a satisfactory stay and I would probably return.
Perfect spot to stay ehen coming off the ferry. Our room was very clean and looked newly updated even though it was done 8 years ago. Staff and food were spot on.Only there a night but no problem staying longer.
We picked this property when booking for ease of access to the NFLD Ferry and also for its amenities and pricing. We were very satisfied with our stay.
