βI will definitely return. Not fancy but clean.β
I have stayed here before in a cabin. I needed a place for my friend and I to stay while visiting family in Caribou Island. I was looking for no fuss, clean and comfortable place to spend the night. Bed was comfortable, sheets were clean( drove by while staff was changing sheets). Shower had great pressure and the room was ice cold when we arrived, the outside temp was in the 30's so this was amazing. Proximity to grocerystore, liquor store, gas, and fast food was great for our early departure to PEI ferry. I will return next visit. We had a Queen delux I believe. Room was huge.

Initial room had a very bad smell and they did change it for another room. A somewhat improvement but only one window had an intact screen to open window. Other windows had screens that had holes so useless to provide bugs from entering. A disappointment.

βDirty and needs many repairsβ
Staff was accommodating changing rooms. However both rooms were dirty, in need of many repairs. Electrical sockets overloaded. The screen door and windows were full of holes. Dirty stained shower curtain. Weeds only in the window baskets. All the windows were dirty. Would have left if we could have got different accommodations. Would give a minus rating and should send an inspector to check electrical and safety issues.
