Well i have been here off an on all of Sept. Iv been in 3 different rooms and they are roomy, clean and cozy feeling. i loved that the 2 rooms had amazing soaker tubs. Im a PSW so there was times i was dead tired came home and just relaxed, the owners are very friendly and easy to talk with. As i was here for work they gave me a break on my rooms and me in return looked after my room. i know i didnt have too. If I needed extra towels not at problem. the housekeeping was really prompt. If your not looking for fancy just a nice rest stop this is the place to be. Between you and me book room 8 or 2 those tubs were awesome. Unfortunately not pet friendly, and im sad to say ill miss staying here as i found a rental house. No there wasnt breakfast but a nice restaurant up the road or take the drive into North Bay. it was great for me, i bought food and drinks and ate microwaved dinners and salad and chicken wraps. Thank you for your kindness and making sure i always had a room. Shelley Sovie Colborne Ont

Had a great night no noise lots of heat in the room. little bit over priced for the location out of town, no breakfast and had to pay over 230 for one night. stayed in the hotel before at only 69 dollars a night and will not stay again at that price.

It’s an old motel that has had upgrades. It’s not flashy, but I had the best sleep in that bed that I haven’t had in a long time. Comfortable, extra pillows, and roomy. Flatscreen TV, fridge and microwave. Only one problem had. The first facecloth I chose was dirty. It clearly had been washed, but a white cloth can be easily cleaned with bleach. (Photo) The rest were clean.

This is what you would expect from a motel. It's basic but the room was clean and comfortable. The AC worked well. Conveniently located off highway 11. Staff is friendly and check-in was efficient. Wi-fi was good.

downtown location but still very close to the highway. Hotel is located within walking distance to restaurants and lakeside. There was a free car show when my wife and I visited which made the evening memorable. Rooms were clean and maintenance was kept up. Continental breakfast had good variety

Decent nights sleep except for a very strong raw pot odor during the night. Beds were ok and rooms was clean although very aged and tired looking. I think there would be better value in the area for sure.

Somewhere on the stretch of the Trans-Canada heading south toward North Bay there is a sign that advertises rooms for $49.99 at the Bay Motel. Of course I knew that they probably only have ONE such room and the rest are a bit more money but I needed a place to crash, since all of the campgrounds north of here were closed for the season. I pulled in just after dark and gee whiz there was only one room left, for $89.00, what a surprise. But I took it anyways, not being desirous of more time on the highway. The room did not smell fresh, like it had probably been smoked in (and there was an ashtray just outside the door), and it was evidently quite an old motel and a pretty tired room. The walls are very thin and you can hear everything going on in adjoining rooms, not to mention the highway. But the wifi was reliable, the sheets were clean and the hot water was hot, so these are always positive items.

I like it especially the location between the Forest, felt like a movie scene. The staff was good . The rooms are regular rooms and there's maybe one or two are deluxe. The price was high a bit for motel (not in downtown). If you wanna go have some nightlife without any driving, you can call a taxi the staff will take care of you they are helpful.
