Stayed 2 nights with my dog. Room was clean, AC worked great, cleanest bathroom I’ve ever seen in a hotel. Friendly staff and good price. I was visiting a friend and she stayed with me. Room is a little tight for 2 people and a large dog but the crate fit and we were comfortable. Tv worked good and overall great place to stay with your pup for not a lot of money. Would stay again.

I don't think the rooms could be any smaller. :) We enjoyed our quick stay while visiting Parc du Bic. The service was great and the rooms were nicely updated.

The room was okay. Nice for a short stay. The room is just big enough and had pretty much everything we needed. Wasn't special or anything, pretty much what you expect form a motel.
