Pros:

Was great to have the vouchers for breakfast, the café was great. The room was to my satisfactory for sleep and was very clean. I was away during the day so did not get to enjoy the facilities it had to offer. Location was great and close to where I needed to be.

Cons:

I could hear people talking from another room in the morning but was quiet at night.

This place is a gem. Great accommodation, food and proximity to amenities.
Pros:

The meals were exceptional. The subsidized breakfast was the best on our trip. Try the salmon eggs Benedict!

Cons:

The place is in a shopping centre, which was unexpected. Our GPS took us there, but we initially didn't believe it. As it turns out the location was great as the liquor store and grocery store were right there.

Meh.
Pros:

Their rate included a breakfast voucher for the attached restaurant; which was very good (as is its bakery). The room was close to the area we wanted to focus on (St. FX) and there was a free EV charger.

Cons:

To have a toilet that flushed (was clogged when we go there; no, no visible waste). To not have several hairs (not ours) in the tub. To not have had wifi access issues. To have better mattresses; sore back !

OK for one nght but I'd look for an alternative in future.
Pros:

Parking easy and breakfast in the motel's partner cafe was very good.

Cons:

The motel is located right behind a major shopping mall, difficult to find and not very attractive, and not very close to town centre. We were treated rather off-handedly by check-in staff. It's decor and furnishings had a very 'tired' look.
