• ashley (8/5): - Staff was friendly and accommodating
• veronique (8/5): - Personnel a1
• Mary Marta Jozefa (4/5): - Neighbouring rooms ‘ TV noise is heard clearly through the walls. No working TV in unit 150 . Hair dryer requested, but denied.
• C8074VTjens (10/5): Definitely worth trying this place out, highly recommend 5/5 - Very good reasonable rates, great staff, who are always available to accommodate. Very safe and quiet setting. I give 5/5 New cleaning staff, which means all rooms have recently underwent extensive cleaning throughout. And are still being done.
• Steve (2/5): - sketcty at night
• San (10/5): - The rooms are nice and clean. The bedding was fresh and we had a good night's sleep. The manager was very kind. We would stay here again :)
• Modest (10/5): - The manager was very nice and accommodating, I had an extra person with me and it was a very last-minute change but the manager was kind and understanding about it. The motel looks dated from the outside but it is clean and comfortable. The pictures online are old because the rooms are much newer and renovated. I would recommend this motel if you are looking to stay in town.
• Sana (10/5): - the staff was very kind and helpful the room was clean. The area is quite and it's good for a short stay when in town. I would come back again.
• Christian (8/5): sympathique - trés gentille réception. Tout était bien. Tranquille, chambre propre
• Modest (10/5): - Easy check-in and Clean room. old building but good for its price.
• Sara (8/5): - Good people and the room was clean. Provided us with extra towels and blankets. In a city like Chatham we expected it to be a little dated and old fashioned but they have done some renovations like the wooden floors. Overall, this motel was very good for the cost
• Kuan (10/5): - booked the room for 2 people but had a last-minute change of plan, a friend tag along. The manager was so nice and accommodating. Provided us with extra towels and blankets and did not charge extra. the Room is dated but very clean and with new sheets and equipment. The area is quite and calm. Felt safe to walk around. overall the service was nice and I would recommend it. I have gone back to them since my stay and I will most likely go stay with them again if I am in town.
• Kyle (4/5): - Overall dingy. Thin walls and could hear arguments of the folks living beside my room.
• Kelly (10/5): - Good Location, Good Price, Nice staff and Cleanroom. I could tell that they had sanitized everything which was good to know. The owner is very welcoming, definitely worth the stay, especially with the budget-friendly price.
• Sherwin (2/5): - Not good
• 660707ROADTRIPPER (2/5): No Quality or Concern - The room was booked through booking.com No one was in the office (lights out/front locked) which was only 15 minutes after I booked. When someone came I was told my booking was no good, wanted to charge me again for the room and charge more than booking.com. Then although there were two of us and we booked two beds they only gave us one towel and washcloth. Next, went into the room and by the bed was a gigantic cobweb with spider which went from ceiling all the way down to the floor and quite wide...also another spider on the ceiling directly over bed. They forgot to give the Wi-Fi password so had to call and after person gave us password they said don't call me anymore I'm going to bed. after that we started to move around the room trying to get the TV and password going. When in bed realized there was only a top sheet draped over the mattress with no top sheet in between the blanket covering bedding. The covering blanketing consisted of one very thin acrylic summer blanket. The room was very cold and when I went to turn the thermostat up to get the heat going nothing happened, it had been disconnected. When I talk to them the next day about how I was not happy with the room because of the issues and the heat not being available they said they kept the rooms at 14 and it wasn't that cold and didn't want to hear my complaint. Then said why didn't you call to tell me and I said I did and I was told not to call back so I didn't. Then they said that was my fault. Basically I paid for a room for two people that was less comfortable and warm than if I'd have stayed in my vehicle...I would have slept better in my vehicle. Totally unconcerned just money grabbers and not very honourable. Would never stay there again and do not recommend.
• Verified traveler (2/5): - Did not honour reservation. Made false excuses. Made no efforft to remedy the situation.
• Betty (6/5): - The room is big, the bed is comfortable. There was no towel but after we told the staff they were sent to the room
• Verified traveler (6/5): - Convenient location, good price, room could use updating
• Verified traveler (4/5): - Dirty, shabby, locks broken. Do not recommend to anybody.
• e (4/5): - motel room had a very bad smell, that it was hard to go to sleep.. very old room and furniture.when I open my bed there was a hair on the sheets.
• Carole (8/5): - the motel looked very rough on the outside but the room was clean, the bedding was fresh and the A/C unit worked great. The owners were very nice. I would stay there again..
• Verified traveler (8/5): Pleasant enough. - As a lower priced accommodation we understand that the owners get frustrated with the abuse to the rooms enacted by some guests who either don't care or really feel they want "their money's worth". My room was clean and a non smoking one whos last occupants smoked up a storm in. I had worked as a housekeeper so I have no qualms with helping to tidy my room and add finishing touches. The owners gave me a better deal due to this as we are occupying the room until our apt is ready. The grounds are clean and the motel is older but pleasant looking. I am not unhappy here. Just had to clean up after myself more than just relying on maidservice. Staff is friendly and available. Many of the guests may be long term style especially with the increase of newcomers to Canada. They asked me not to smoke in the room and that is more than fine by me.
• reynaldov824 (4/5): IT IS, WHAT IT IS... - What to expect for Cad$50 / night? Room was outdated but clean and with good internet. Smelled a bit like bug repellent, which did not intimidate my uninvited guest, the mosquito. By the way, no bites to report. Got more than I expected for the money. You'll survive the night.
• Ron (10/5): - The location is GREAT and the price was so good as well! We loved our stay at Chatham motel ..We would HIGHLY recommend this establishment for anyone looking for a clean reasonably priced place to stay during your trip to Chatham motel.
• Yves (8/5): - Proprio sympathiques. Propre mais très usé. Porte entrée minimaliste...
• Verified traveler (10/5): very kind and smiling faces. - I stayed over the May long weekend. It was a very quiet and relaxing stay. It was a few minutes drive away from all downtown. The room and bathroom looked updated. Check in was quick. Would definitely come back if in the area. Keep up the great work guys. very kind and smiling faces.
• Verified traveler (10/5): Thank you so much for making us feel at home. - Owner and his wife are amazing! Very accommodating and friendly. They make sure their guests are taken care of and comfortable. We have stayed there on many occasions and have enjoyed every stay. The rooms are clean and comfortable and spacious. Thank you so much for making us feel at home.
• Verified traveler (2/5): - Couldn't stay in the room for the smell, very bad!
• Blueliner (2/5): Dump - Dump. Plumbing didn't work properly, holes in the walls, next to nothing for continental breakfast..... The manager did refund a little bit of money. It was close to where we needed to be and the bed was relatively comfortable.
• DAVID (6/5): Good room with minor issues. - Overall the room was good for the price. However, there were a few annoying issues: 1)the TV remote did not work 2)there was only 1 TV channel to watch which was a sports channel 3)the washroom receptacle did not work 4)there was no bedside light. These are not big problems, but when stating that there is a TV in the room, the expectation is that you have more than 1 channel to view.
• Dave (2/5): Not a chance - What a hole. People were nice but that's where the good ends. Door handle fell apart when I opened the door, paint flaking off the walls, trim missing, and I think it would have been softer if I had slept on the floor. Woke up the owner at 8am to check out, office wasn't even open. Hard pass on staying there again
• Alex (8/5): Cheap and comfortable stay in quiet town - We really enjoyed our stay at this hotel. It is family owned and mostly family operated. The entire staff was polite and welcoming and very much so on a personal level. Dated Motel but renovated rooms, very clean and comfortable. There is a connivence store right next door and a Tim Hortons walking distance. there is also a grocery store and pharmacy down the road. I would highly recommend this hotel to anyone travelling in this area who is looking for a cheap and clean place to stay for the night. A great hotel in a quiet little town!
• Carly (8/5): The motel is older, but well kept. clean and quiet - The motel is older, but well kept. The room was clean, bed comfortable, clean towels daily. Our room size was adequate. Parking is by the room door. A plus for us. The owner was quite friendly and helpful for all requests, (extra towels, soaps) very kind people. The location was convenient to downtown and not too far from grocery stores and not the mention the convenience store/gas station right next to the motel. Compared to price of other motels it was a good deal. Best part the greyhound bus station is the gas station it self which was very convenient for my wife who was traveling to Toronto the next day
• Matthew (8/5): Veey clean room - I had a three night stay i got here and the management was very kind i got to my room and it was very clean and quiet when trying to go to sleep and bed was comfortable
• Carolyn (6/5): - Would have been nice if they would have turned the heat on before we got there. No towels, had to call to get some.Very no frills. Was odd to see a treadmill in the front office.
• Debbie (6/5): Very tired motel Staff were wonderful Had a proble - Under new management. Staff are eager to please and hoping to do well in the future. New mattresses and pillows
• Mandy (10/5): Great rooms & very nice people to deal with!! 😀 - Very roomy and clean room. The people that I talked with are very polite and courteous! Good location to get to most anywhere you want to go. Convent store right by the rooms. Quiet area. 2 beds, TV, refrigerator, microwave , wifi, cable and most of all very cheap price!!!! The room here was nicer than most motels in town and a whole lot cheaper!!!
• Verified traveler (10/5): Money saver motel - Lets be honest, this is not a 5 star motel but if you only need to sleep at night. It is more than adequate.
• No Happy Travel (6/5): Mom & Pop Motel - No trash pick up all 4 days. No WiFi password. No real manager on site. 1 washcloth, 1 large towel, 1extra large towel for 2 people. Peeling ceilings. HIGH step to get into room. No plug to recharge cell phone. They need HELP.
• FR (4/5): Just a place to sleep - Good thing we were not there much because no one even came in to take the garbage out everyday, we had to take it out ourselves. I know it was no daily maid service but really no trash pick up? And the manager gave one of the rooms away before we even arrived on Thursday 6/29/2017 and the manager did call me twice at my home but I was driving there to Canada, didn't get the messages until I got home on the 3rd. NOT HAPPY.
• Verified traveler (4/5): You get what you pay for - maybe even less - The proprietor was distracted by his cell phone throughout the check-in process and could not find my reservation in his system. When I got to the room it had not been cleaned and I had to wait, even though it was nearly 5 p.m. To top it off the vending machine swallowed my coins without giving me my soda or a refund. The shower was robust through.
• Verified traveler (10/5): Clean room, nice hostess - The non-smoking room is very clean, two queen size beds with nearly new quilts, micro-oven, refrigerator. The hostess is nice too, and didn't charge me for extra adult fee (3 adults 1 kid). The location is quiet. The price is almost the cheapest!
• Thomas (10/5): Satisfied - I have stayed here several times and it is a very comfortable motel. I like the new upgrades and the staff are very friendly.
• Helen (2/5): Will stay elsewhere - Old and tired,paint peeling off the ceiling,room could use a good cleaning and paint job,stayed 2 nights,room not made up for second night and no clean towels.
• Verified traveler (10/5): Exceptional service - We arrived after an 8 hour drive to find out that they don't take pets. We are so greatful that they allowed our large breed dog in for free!!! Thanks so much!
• Jenny (8/5): Great Room for the price and Good People - The Room was clean and included all the necessities. I was put into a renovated room with Hardwoods floors, The Staff was kind and welcoming. good place for family and kids. Close you many stores and Tim hortons for breakfast. The owners were kind enough to let us check out late free of charge.
• Jeff (8/5): not to bad - Good for a couple night stay . It has everything you need for a quick lsy over .
• sh3rri (2/5): Overwhelming horrible smell in room - The room smelled so bad we could barely breathe. Had to purchase spray to try to cover it and that didn't help at all. Felt like we were suffocating in the stench. Toilet got clogged and the cheap plunger broke. They said we'd have to fix it. Went out and bought a plunger and when we got back it was fixed and we were charged half the price of the "plumber" that allegedly came to fix it. Would never ever stay there again. The smell was in our clothes and hair. Could smell it faintly in the car for weeks.
• Matt (10/5): Great motel for the price - This was my third time staying at this hotel and I have to say I enjoy just relaxing there
• Avery (2/5): Very dated, terribly maintained, avoid this place. - Arrived at night, checked in and went to the room. Room was dated, air was heavy with smoke to the point where you could only smell smoke with every breath. Soap dish in the bathroom had soap melted into it, floor in bathroom had cigarette burns around the toilet, walls in the bathroom were peeling as there is no ventilation (fan) in the bathroom. Floor was a blue carpet that felt dirty, checked the beds and there were no sign of bed bugs, however the sheets and comforters had stains on them that were bodily fluids. All payments are done up front and "no refunds" sign is proudly posted in the office to ensure you are absolutely trapped.
• Verified traveler (2/5): - THE ROOM SMELT DISCUSTING,THERE WERE MOTH BALLS EVERYWHERE EVEN IN THE SOAP DISH.ONLY 2 TOWELS AND NO FACECLOTHS.THE PLACE SHOULD BE TORN DOWN,BELIEVE ME IT WASNT AT ALL LIKE THE PICTURES SHOWN.....AWFUL EXPERIENCE I WOULD NEVER GO BACK THERE.
• Jen (10/5): cheap, ideal location and quiet - Looking at the price I didn't know what to expect but luckily the motel rooms were clean with nice new hard wood floors not carpet (thank god). Great location near Tim Hortons and a Convenience store right next to it. The owner was a darling and surprisingly very welcoming and caring.
• Verified traveler (4/5): - Bare bones establishment in need of some upkeep Didn't use TV, don't know if there was wifi Would not stay there with my family Will not use it again
• Boris (8/5): Great value..... - Nothing fancy, great value; great shower, would stay again
