This stay was potentially misleading alongside unfit standard room conditions for guest safety. Location is close proxim Located in close proximity to crescent bay beach, towel service, AC. Arrived with the blind’s frame broken and derailed not allowing main front facing window curtain’s to remain closed. Solo female traveller, had to reinforce with hair clip for safety. Vanity light bulb burnt out, not replaced. Black mold/rot growing alongside shower heads and shower rods. Wifi service NOT included as advertised due to overdue “network errors”.

Motel très bien situé à 5 minutes à pied d'une belle plage et à 5 minutes d'un très beau promontoire qui permet d'avoir un très beau coucher de soleil sur la mer. Grande chambre, bien équipée et literie confortable. Les gérants sont très sympathiques et accueillants. Le wifi ne fonctionne pas malgré les différents mots de passe donné, car tout simplement on ne capte rien dans la chambre. Un seul oreiller mis à disposition par personne, c'est peu. Il y a bien un coussin de décoration en plus,mais j'imagine qu'il n'est pas nettoyé entre chaque client,il ne peux donc pas servir d'oreiller. Toutefois j'ai pu en demander un supplémentaire sans problème. Ce motel est composé de 3 bâtiments parallèle à la route ( une 2x2 voies ) ,alors si vous avez la chance d'être dans le bâtiment le plus éloigné, j'imagine que ça va. Moi ayant eu une chambre au rez-de-chaussée de chaussée, en première ligne et vu que la chambre n'est absolument pas isolé phonétiquement ( simple vitrage, jour qui passe en dessous de la porte) , le bruit de la circulation était tout simplement insupportable. Donc plus de 200 $ pour un motel en bord de route sans wifi,même si l'emplacement est top, cest trop cher.
