Pretty rooms newly renovated right on the St Lawrence. The restaurant however is overpriced for what tou get with few options. Charging for bread is rather stingy!

Beautifully appointed by the River, brand new remodelled motel unit. Small room, no fridge. If you dine with them it is very pricey.

Nice boutique hotel. Beautiful spot. The music from the restaurant was way too loud. We could hear it through the floor and it kept us up.

The location of the Motel’s room front of the sea very nice. Bed sheets be white and clean room although a bit old building accommodations are fine Dinner at April good but fees 4$ for 1 mini bread ridiculous! Fish of the day salmon very good and dessert with strawberries of season super! Love this aera and village of Notre Dame du Portage by the sea. Nice discovery for me!

The common areas were gorgeous and cozy. The restaurant was amazing and you should definitely eat there.. big portions and great taste. The location was beautiful. The rooms are very basic, but at this price it's what you'd expect. However, the soundproofing in the rooms is very poor, you can hear the people in the next rooms as if they were in your room. In addition, the second night we were there, there was a huge amount of noise coming from the restaurant. We had to go down and ask them to turn down the music. Then there was banging and crashing for about an hour and the sound of something, (vacuuming?) after the restaurant closed. We got a very poor sleep that night. The staff of the restaurant have to be more aware of how much noise they make... maybe leave the heavy cleaning until daytime hours?

Very nice old inn, which you see in the pictures. However, when you book a room, you'll probably be in a small room in the old motel next to the beautiful inn. Regardless, I would stay here again. Fantastic view and for a very reasonable price. Great friendly and welcoming staff. There is a restaurant and small lounge on site. Nice, but a pricey menu.

When we got to our room, it was hot - easily over 30 degrees C. When I told the front desk, I was told that if I opened the deck door it would cool down in 15 minutes. That didn’t work. The door was open all night, but it stayed hot and our whole family had to sleep in the buff. Fortunately our children are young enough that they won’t be scarred by it. The next morning, when I told the front desk person they should have opened the balcony door all day before we arrived, I was told I could have asked for a fan - why didn’t the person tell me that the day before when I said the room was too hot??? It was a horrible experience and you should stay there unless you want to sleep in a sauna.

Hello, We are sorry to hear that you didn't enjoy your stay, it's true that it has been particularly hot recently and we do not have air conditioning. Typically it gets much cooler at night, however, you should have been offered a fan at the reception desk. Our apologies.

This is an old building with no A/C (it was 30 degrees outside) and the rooms are old but clean. Door to room opened only halfway, there was no air coming in the bathroom and light was dim. The restaurant in the auberge was pricy. There were no stores or restaurants in the area

We are sorry to hear that you didn't enjoy your stay with us. It is true that we don't have air conditioning, but we typically have a cool breeze from the river, especially in the evening. It would be helpful to know which room had an issue with the door and lighting so that we can address the problem. Our restaurant is excellent and our rates reflect that quality. However, there are many stores and other restaurants in nearby Rivière-du-Loup.

The main building with restaurant have so much character, felt like a B&B. The dining area had a beautiful view of the St; Lawrence with a classic European style continental breakfast. Our room was in the motel-style building with a deck right on the water -great sunsets! Room was clean but could use updating.
