The space was cleaned— but the shower was a problem, there was no hot water and if there was, it was for a very short period before the cold water took over.

When I first checked in the woman had bad body oder. The property in all is looking quite run down, although I know it's an older building.
The ceiling in the bathroom had a repair, it was far from a professional repair, it looked like a pile of drywall compound slapped on.

We stayed for just one night before our Le Boat rental. This hotel is literally a three minute walk from Le Boat. Very convenient for that. The hotel is a little dated. Not as nice as it looks in the pictures but overall it was clean and well kept. The only issue we had was the handle for the sink faucet was not screwed on so it would come off in your hand if you didn’t use two hands to hold it on as you turn the water on. Since we were basically only there to sleep and leave the next morning I didn’t bother to tell the staff until check out. I would stay here again.

The hotel is very old and the installations definetely need renovation. The carpet is dirty and cleaning overall needs improvement. I think it is ok if you are just looking for price. We decide to leave earlier as the elevator broken twice in 2 days, there was a police incident in our floor and the air conditioning works in the rooms only, not in the corridor. The staff was super nice and responsive, but the building is old and really can use some renovation, as there are a lot of patches around.

Dated property, peeling wallpaper, old carpet, rusty ceiling light, repaired ceiling plaster from a roof leak and generally a tired site makes the cosmetics a turn off. BUT the location is excellent and is better than the nearby hotels that are on a boring highway. It was quiet. Good view from the balcony, overlooking the water. Easy walk to restaurants and the canal nearby. The morning continental breakfast was forgettable.

I have to say I was most impressed with the staff. One person in particular. Whatever issues I ran into he was very eager to solve it. The view from the room is beautiful although you can only enjoy it from the balcony or going outside which I highly recommend. The hotel is old and needs a major renovation. I had a hard time figuring out how to start and stop the shower. They are pet friendly. Given that there are balconies people smoke there which isn’t much fun if you don’t like to smell it. The price was good and for one night it was great. It is also close to everything which was a bonus.

I was disappointed in the public restroom by the reception and breakfast area. It is absolutely not handicap accessible. The toilet stalls are very narrow and cramped and almost impossible to navigate as a handicapped person. So small that your practically have to straddle the tiny toilet in order to open or close the stall door.

It's unfortunate that a property like this has not been kept up or improved to take it up a notch or two. Great, scenic location off the Rideau River. Beautiful river views, but the building is old and needs some TLC. It was okay for a nights sleep, but I wouldn't recommend it if you're looking to spend some holiday travels in the area and quiet time on the balcony looking over the river. Much potential, but it's aging away.

We stayed 1 night at Econolodge Smiths Falls and can safely say we would not return. The positives, staff were friendly and helpful, the bed was comfortable but we did have to ask for extra pillows. The negatives, the hotel is in desperate need of renovation, peeling paint, cracked bathroom sink, enamel on bath cracked, no fan in the bathroom, carpet ridges and stained. The balconies were very dismal and had there been chairs to sit in you would not be able to see the view of the canal due to the concrete wall. A shame because this hotel has the potential to be so much more with its position right in the canal. The breakfast offered is very basic with just toast, pancakes, cereals, yoghurts … no fruit, eggs, bacon, etc. Smiths Falls does not have a lot to offer as a tourist place but served as a place to rest overnight.

This is an affordable hotel, conveniently located to local restaurants and points of interest. It is easy to find and located alongside the Rideau canal - very picturesque. The owner is very involved with check-in cleaning, breakfast, and was offering us coffee/tea at all times.
The hotel is a little \"tired\", but the room and common areas were very neat and clean.
This was a great affordable accommodation, in a handy location

During checkin (6pm ish on a Saturday), had to wait maybe 5 minutes for the solitary staff person to get back from whatever she was doing in the basement.
