“Okay for one or two nights.”
Spic and span and clean, facility is well maintained, but sort of museum like. Really old and outdated. Good location. WiFi is fast and stable.

Had a lovely stay. Our room was simple, but all we needed. The view is absolutely stunning and we were able to see a whale from the park just down the street. The price was reasonable considering it was peak season for whale watching. We had breakfast 2 days on site. Food was good and the chef was so nice!

“Cheap as they come”
You are forced to check in between 1600hrs and 1800hrs.. This is only mentioned in a message after completing my booking.. I phoned the hotel to explain that I had a 7hr drive and a stop to visit a relative in a seniors residence.. They said they would wait till 7PM. I told them I had no idea when I would arrive and asked for a refund to which they refused.. I told them I dont rearrange my trip to thier needs. Well I did rearrange my trip to arrive on thier time. NOT IMPRESSED. There are 3 buildings on this property.. We were in a very tiny room in an old house that was converted to 4 rooms on each floor., clean but antiquated. They will also charge you if you stain , as they put it any towels or bedding. They also charge you if you dont return key to front desk and only give you one cup of coffee per day.. I would avoid this hotel for any reason.

Hotel is rustic and within walking distance of everything within Tadoussac, as it is a small town.
