It was kind of clean on the inside. But the outside and places are sooo run down. They look nothing like the pictures. It's unfortunate cause it could be a great cute place to stay. And the people that were outside smoking and drinking at the front of the motel all the time looked very sketchy and I felt un safe when I pulled up.

We stayed one night for race at Gull Lake. Place is clean, has what you need, but is definitely older. There had been updates to flooring, counters. Definitely clean. Friendly front desk, close to everything. Beds were new, I found them soft. They have instant coffee, but there is coffee shops near by if that does not work for you. Grateful the AC worked!

I have asked for a late check out ahead of time and received a confirmation that the room will be available for an extra hour or so. I confirmed the late check out details when I checked in. When I called back on the check out day at noon (one hour after the check out time) the same guy at the reception said the room is no longer available. Horrible service!

Everything was fine but with one major problem.
I never saw so much dust in a room. I don't think any cleaning was done other than changing towels and bedding.
The dust was really thick everywhere.

I had to clean the shelves to put my clothes on. Once we turned on the AC, we saw dust flying in the air. We removed and cleaned the AC filter and the bathroom vent.

The toilet seat had a seal showing that it was cleaned but there where drops of yellow and brown matter on it.

The TV screen looked very greasy. We used one glass and it had greasy fingerprints all over it.

Anyway we had to do some cleaning before we felt somehow comfortable.

But if this housekeeping issue would be addressed and with a bit of painting to refresh the room, everything would be great.

The 'cottages' are little more than a backyard shed with a bathroom addition. Nowhere near worth the value for the room I was charged.

Access to my room late at night was barricaded by 2 vehicles, one of which had a couple of men smoking weed and yelling with the vehicle running well past 1 AM.

Staff were also insistent on copying down my drivers license, claiming it was standard practice. I've never had another property do it, they verify the name and that's all.

run away as fast as you can

one side of the building must have tenants living there as there was beer cans, cigarette butts and rotted carved pumpkins outside of most of the units, the cottage area really wasn't any better as there was overflowing ashtrays outside. definitely not like the pictures that are shown on Hotel.com's website

The lack of grab bars in the bathroom made it less than ideal for a senior couple who rely on these safety features. There was no anti slip features in the bathtub either. For these reasons I would not recommend this for seniors.

Better than first impression

Everything was pretty much booked when we decided to stay on a Saturday in mid-August in Gravenhurst. We wouldn’t normally stay at a motel, but the accommodations are owed by a lovely family who aimed to please. Although the cabins were of a certain age and sparsely decorated, the room and bathroom were spotlessly clean. There was a little kitchen area in the room and outdoor tables and chairs, so we enjoyed a coffee the next morning in the sunshine after a restful sleep.

This hotel was in a very central location, ideal to do walks about the town. We had a pleasant stay, the only set back at the time for rest, was the rather loud noise emenating from the refridgerator motor.

Well, you get what you pay for I suppose. Wasn't the worst motel I've stayed in. The door didn't lock so we had to put a chair in front of it at night. The walls were very thin, we could literally hear the people in the room next to us fart. There was no thermostat in the room, and when I called to ask if there was the lady who checked us in brought us a space heater that was very dusty and very noisy (we didn't end up using it. Could hardly hear each other talk over the noise it made). The room was kind of cold during the day and evening but at night the heat went up, and we were drenched in sweat. I wish there was a way we could have controlled it. Overall, if you are there just for the night amid a winter hiking trip like we were, it'll do as a place to rest when you are tired enough to pass out anywhere.
