Not very happy with the overall experience.
Pros:

View and location was excellent

Cons:

Outdated sheets and towels should be replaced. Looks like things haven’t been replaced in years. Also, the smell of septic system was there all day. With no AC, windows had to be open. You get what you pay for here I guess.

Basic accommodation with amazing view
Pros:

Very basic motel. Coffee maker but no coffee, only instant. No ice available. Bed was small.
Gorgeous outlook but needs some TLC

Pros:

A very clean accommodation and met expectations. The view is wonderful so take the time to use the chairs set up out back and enjoy the evening view. We picked this location because of the view, but there was a great restaurant next door and a lovely place for breakfast in the near by town. Great as a stop along the Cabot Trail.

Pros:

St Anns Motel has a beautiful view across the water to the Cape Breton highlands. It is a very quiet spot and you will need a car to get to shops and places to eat.
