“Just okay”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 17 October 2011
1
person found this review helpful

Just stayed here two nights. It was okay. The beds were clean and comfortable. Staff were pleasant and efficient. Breakfast was fine. It wasn't pristine (a little clump of hair on the bathroom floor that did not belong to us) but not bad either. The property is old but the bathroom looked like it had been updated at some point. I thought it was somewhat overpriced but if you can get a good rate and are just looking for a place to sleep, it's okay. You do need a car.

Stayed October 2011, travelled as a couple

“Pleasant Stay - wonderful hospitality.”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 26 September 2011

We stayed for two nights here - Sept.21,22/11. The woman at the desk at check in was very friendly and accommodating. We were able to change our room from two dbl beds to one queen easily. The HJ is dated but our room was very clean. There was no AC in our room but being September the air coming in the window was fresh and our room was a comfortable temperature. The breakfast was included - the small buffet style had sausages, scrambled eggs, pancakes, a variety of juices and cereal, coffee and tea. We had gone to the island to do some cycling and take in the Buddy Holly Story. We were aware that it would be about a 10-15 minute drive to downtown, but this was no problem. The rate was excellent - $79 per night for a two night stay. The bed was comfortable but not fabulous. After a day of cycling, it was no problem to go to sleep! The room was very quiet.

“Nice hotel, comfortable beds and good breakfast”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 28 August 2011

Although this hotel was a little out of the way from the downtown area of Charlottetown it was a nice place to stay. Great customer service from the day we checked in to when we checked out. They were very accomodating and had upgraded us to a bigger room which we didn't feel comforable with (too big for just the two of us) so we asked to be moved which they were able to do the next day. Comfortable beds and pillows. Great breakfast, food was hot and fresh and coffee was good. Only one small complaint, would have liked to have had some fruit and/or yogurt. Good little lounge in the lower floor.

“worst motel in many many yrs”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 23 August 2011

we found the motel on a friday nite and the attendant charged us a 50 dollar fee in case we damage anything and hit the wrong button and had to re do it....hopefully i wont be billed for this...we got in our room and found there was tooth paste dried on the bathroom sink, a shampoo bottle part left in the bath tub, and an unbelievable amount of dirt and dust and grime behind my wife's head board...we called and complained and were offered another room but we were tired and decided to stay...wife had the creeps that there would be bugs etc but that was not the case..just very dirty....i really dont think the room was cleaned at all since the previous customer....when we checked out the same guy hit the wrong button again but did catch his mistake saying i made him do it because i was talking about the couple who woke us up fighting at three in the morning...of course they have no control on that problem....but he still hit the wrong button again so i hope i dont get hit with two additional bills for 50 dollars each because he was not careful...overall...terrible....the breakfast was good tho

Thank you for your comments. Please be assured that your $50 deposit was returned to you. We take a $50 deposit only when customers pay with cash. This deposit is for any incidental charges (IE: phone or restaurant) that you may incur during your stay. In regards to your overnight room, I do apologize that the bathroom was not up to par and your issues were addressed to the housekeeper. The head of this department is keeping a close eye on the employee so that something like this does not happen again. It is unfortunate that you did not accept the offer of another room as we do strive to be a clean property. Again thank you for your comments it keeps us on our toes.

“OK rooms but not amazed”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 20 August 2011

I agree with the previous reviews - the hotel needs some TLC - it looks and feels old. Having said that it served its purpose. We had a good night's sleep, shower and hot breakfast that is included in price. Weird that the tap would spit as if the hot water was just turned on. Overall, there are other hotels close by and since the prices are very close, I'd go to one of those instead next time.
