The view from my balcony was fantastic, and I did get to see a ship "locking through." The property is a little bit dated (the bathroom is very cramped), but it is very clean and well maintained. The staff were welcoming and very helpful.

Aug 27, 2024
We booked 2 rooms. I shortened one room reservation by 1 day. This triggered unnecessary complaints from the owner. Unfortunately room 9 had live ants and in room 14 I found a dead ant in the bed. In one of the bathrooms (room 9) there was hair on the wall and in the other bathroom room 14 the bathtub was not draining. Towels were not clean in room 14.
The last night of the stay we got locked out of the room after 9 pm. We could not reach anyone at the property by phone and there was nobody at property to let us in. That night we had to book and pay a room at FourPoints hotel in Thorold. We came back next morning to gather our belongings .
This was not a pleasant experience at all.

This is a basic inn right on the canal with nothing much else around it. If you read the hotel description, you would know this.
It’s ideal for a 1 night stay very close to Niagara-on-the-Lake
It’s nothing fancy but importantly it’s clean and the front desk staff very helpful…for those of us who can’t figure out the air conditioning.
Only cons is not having anywhere to grab a bite within walking distance and the noisy air conditioning. For a one night stay, I would definitely book again.

This property was unique in that you were able to watch large lake ships transit the Welland Canal Lock 7. On this visit were saw many and we were surprised at how quiet this was.
Property was clean, comfortable but could benefit from having a hair dryer in the room.
All in all I will return to this property again.

Interesting to watch the ships passing by on Welland Canal. Front desk extremely friendly. Beds were a little uncomfortable. Too hard for my liking. Otherwise fine.
