Fair Isle Motel

10/10 Excellent
"THIS PLACE WAS FANTASTIC! I stayed here for two nights to visit and do some hiking in the area - the manager offered a pickup and drop off from the Maritime Bus Terminal at no cost which was extremely generous as its. 30min walk with no sidewalks away (and a simple 4 min drive) Wonderful location close to many trails full of beauty. The Salt Mountain Trail was breathtaking with views of the whole bay and inlet. The pool was a great addition to the motel, the room was very tidy, clean, and spacious, and the view from the little patio of the bay is a wonderful thing to wake up to. Sunrises and sunsets galore! Highly recommend staying here. The manager, Christena (I believe here name is??) was so beyond kind and courteous. 11/10 stay! I recommend checking out and supporting the local Mi’kmaq crafts store at the little gas station/bus terminal plaza to support the local indigenous community and pay respects to this beautiful land. I hope to come back and do some more exploring, and if I do I hope to stay here again."

"Motel has been renovated fairly recently (at least where we stayed - not sure about the two storey building attached to the office/reception/dining room). Price a bit high but in line with what we paid in other hotels of cape breton. Comfy beds, fridge, microwave, no kettle, no coffee machine in the bedroom (I think the receptionist said you have to go to the reception to get coffee/tea). For one night, this was a pretty good option."
