Stayed for a night in the off season. Located at the base of the Highland Park- so very convenient. Had a queen sized bed. Room small but more than adequate for a couple. Clean. Had a microwave, large mini fridge and a coffee maker (yay!). Took awhile to get the hot water flowing through the taps, but once going, was... More

This hotel was very clean. It was a decent sized room with a flat screen tv, two beds a couch, fridge and microwave. It had a bit of a musty smell but nothing that did not go away after the windows were opened for a bit. There was nothing fancy about the place but it was a clean place to... More

I booked one month ahead for a one night stay for my family at the beginning of Natal Day weekend (knowing this weekend would be booked solid later). When I asked for an email confirmation, the owner gave me her name (Ethel) and a 4 digit confirmation #. She told me, "I'm too old for email." I should have RUN... More

Inexpensive: you do get what you pay for, but this was a fair deal. Room was clean, service very friendly. Room did need to be aired out a bit which was easy to do by opening all the windows. Beds were comfortable, Satellite TV big thin flat screen was Great!

I travel to Cape Breton every year and have stayed in this motel at least 5 times. It is basic, the tvs are old, and the rooms may occasionally have a musty smell, but it is a decent place to stay if you are driving the trail and simply need a clean bed and a roof over your head. The... More

Buyer beware is the rule we should have remembered. This is a roadside motel with no view or amenities but inexpensive and advertised as pleasant and clean. We were only staying one night, so we figured we'd save some money and sleep here. Our first tip off that this was a BAD IDEA: the owners (in the dingy lobby) made... More

This is a typical mom and pop motel just outside Cheticamp. The owner is extremely nice and accommodating, and the room is about what you'd expect in an older motel. It was very clean, but it smelled like stale smoke even thought it was a non-smoking room. I think maybe the owner smokes. The on-site laundry is a big plus:... More

Room was very musty, kept windows open in the hopes of airing it out, did not work... couldnt turn the overhead fan on, thought it was going to take off on it's own, it shook so bad. No satellite tv, 12 stations with poor reception, old tv, actually took vhs tapes ! Would not stay again.

Our group of four stopped during a cycling tour and were given a clean and spacious room at the Cheticamp Motel. I have stayed here and at other motels in Cheticamp in the past and this place has always provided good service. Please keep in mind that there are no big hotel chains operating in this community and most places... More
