We booked two rooms, but the smell in the rooms was so bad, and the neighbour was pretty loud in the morning too. ##### Lini Stayed 1 night in Jun 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### michael Sep 2, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Great for a quick stay ##### michael Stayed 1 night in Sep 2024 ### 6/10 Okay #### Bruno N Jul 27, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service The property was spacious for our family. It was deathly hot as they do not have any air conditioning and it was 30 plus humidex. Despite that we enjoyed our stay. It was very 1980 ish retro style. Overall a nice stay but definitely could use new furnishings and a good reno. Bring towels as they do not provide them. ##### Bruno N Stayed 2 nights in Jul 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### carol Jul 18, 2023 Good value and nice convenient place to stay. ##### carol Stayed 1 night in Jul 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Rostyslav Jun 23, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Easy to check-in, nice and calm location ##### Rostyslav Stayed 2 nights in Jun 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### urwashi Jul 23, 2024 Liked: Staff & service, property conditions & facilities Good lady at the front really helpfull , dine in restaurants nearby good too ##### urwashi Stayed 2 nights in Jul 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### John Aug 25, 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Nice location and reasonable; easy check in and out; room is ok; small shower and flat pillows. ##### John Stayed 1 night in Aug 2022 ### 8/10 Good #### Lito Aug 10, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Friendly and accommodating staff ##### Lito Stayed 1 night in Aug 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Cherna joy Aug 28, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Nice to stay ... like the old school tv.. clean and quiet..janet is very helpful.. comfortable bed to sleep... ##### Cherna joy Stayed 1 night in Aug 2023 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Patrick Jul 29, 2025 Disliked: Staff & service, amenities I had a really terrible experience with this motel. I was able to “check in”, even though there is no staff on site. This is where the problems really began. Since there is no staff on site, if you have an issue, you are going to have an even bigger issue getting it resolved. The toilet in my room had its chain disconnected, and to fix that, you had to know how toilets work and stick your hand in a tank of dank black mold tainted water. Staff were unresponsive to multiple texts and calls. Avoid this motel at all costs. ##### Patrick Stayed 1 night in Jul 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Paul Jul 23, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Great place to stop overnight in Ferndale, the rooms could use updating and A/C would be a great asset. But all in all it's a quaint little place, kept very clean and the owners are fantastic and offered great communication through the entire visit. ##### Paul Stayed 3 nights in Jul 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### bebot Jul 26, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities The property is cleaned and surroundings are quiet. Friendly owner ##### bebot Stayed 1 night in Jul 2024 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Abby Jul 6, 2025 Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities I stayed up all night because of the terribly mold smell of the room. No air conditioning and a small fan. I keep the fan on all night tried to get the mold smell away. However despite of the fan and essential oil, the mold smell is still intense. The room is small, no sunlight so it's explained the terribly moldy smell... So painful and didn't even sleep for one hour ##### Abby Stayed 1 night in Jun 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Evgeni Aug 29, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort Great motel for the money. Clean and has everything you need. staying as a family, we just wanted a place to sleep over night that clean and convenient. This hotel met all expectations. ##### Evgeni Stayed 2 nights in Aug 2023 ### 8/10 Good #### Janet Jul 9, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities It was clean and comfy ##### Janet Stayed 1 night in Jul 2023 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [The Briars Resort & Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/Georgina-Hotels-The-Briars-Resort-Spa.h9794102.Hotel-Information) > > [Rawley Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Severn-Hotels-Rawley-Resort.h10486809.Hotel-Information) > > [Coach House Inn](https://www.expedia.ca/Northern-Bruce-Peninsula-Hotels-Coach-House-Inn.h74186778.Hotel-Information) > > [Sherwood Inn](https://www.expedia.ca/Huntsville-Hotels-Sherwood-Inn.h699045.Hotel-Information) > > [Escarpment Heights Motel](https://www.expedia.ca/Owen-Sound-Hotels-Escarpment-Heights-Motel.h24128277.Hotel-Information) > > [Forest Golf Club and Inn](https://www.expedia.ca/Lambton-Shores-Hotels-Forest-Golf-Club-And-Inn.h17259825.Hotel-Information) > > [The Kiwi Motel](https://www.expedia.ca/Lambton-Shores-Hotels-The-Kiwi-Motel.h87128408.Hotel-Information) > > [Mikinaak Cottage & Cabin Rentals](https://www.expedia.ca/Owen-Sound-Hotels-Mikinaak-Cottage-Cabin-Rentals.h14742469.Hotel-Information) > > [Adventure the Bruce Inn - Recently Renovated With Outdoor Hot Tub](https://www.expedia.ca/Owen-Sound-Hotels-Adventure-The-Bruce-Inn.h57118608.Hotel-Information) > > [The Robin's Nest Tobermory](https://www.expedia.ca/Owen-Sound-Hotels-Mermaid-Inn-Tobermory.h11866386.Hotel-Information) > > [Windermere House](https://www.expedia.ca/Huntsville-Hotels-Windermere-House.h3826941.Hotel-Information) > > [Whippoorwill Cottage](https://www.expedia.ca/Owen-Sound-Hotels-Whippoorwill-Cottage.h59455084.Hotel-Information) > > [Huff Estates Inn & Winery](https://www.expedia.ca/Belleville-Hotels-Huff-Estates-Inn-Winery.h1766369.Hotel-Information) > > [The Little Inn of Bayfield](https://www.expedia.ca/Bluewater-Hotels-The-Little-Inn-Of-Bayfield.h15741678.Hotel-Information) > > [Oakwood Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/South-Huron-Hotels-Oakwood-Resort.h15081224.Hotel-Information) > > [Stone Cove Waterfront Adults Only B&B](https://www.expedia.ca/Northern-Bruce-Peninsula-Hotels-Stone-Cove-Waterfront-Adults-Only-BB.h69567566.Hotel-Information) > > [The Jordan Ramada by Wyndham](https://www.expedia.ca/Hamilton-Hotels-Ramada-By-Wyndham-JordanBeacon-Harbourside-Resort.h191507.Hotel-Information) > > [Colonial Hotel & Suites](https://www.expedia.ca/Lambton-Shores-Hotels-Colonial-Hotel-Suites.h71648848.Hotel-Information) > > [Picton Harbour Inn](https://www.expedia.ca/Belleville-Hotels-Picton-Harbour-Inn.h6550759.Hotel-Information) > > [Isaiah Tubbs Resort & Conference Centre](https://www.expedia.ca/Belleville-Hotels-Isaiah-Tubbs-Resort-And-Conference-Centre.h428008.Hotel-Information) > > [Sir Sam's Inn & Waterspa - Adults Only](https://www.expedia.ca/Dysart-Et-Al-Hotels-Sir-Sams-Inn-Waterspa-Adults-Only.h1737215.Hotel-Information) > > [Bayview Wildwood Resort, an Ascend Collection Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Severn-Hotels-Bayview-Wildwood-Resort.h2604315.Hotel-Information) > > [The Waring House](https://www.expedia.ca/Belleville-Hotels-The-Waring-House.h3079957.Hotel-Information) > > [Kingbridge Conference Centre & Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Toronto-Hotels-Kingbridge-Conference-Centre-Hotel.h899249.Hotel-Information) > > [Ste.
