There are such simple and cheap ways to clean up this place like SOAP AND WATER. It's really bad. It smells how it looks. Even the pillows stink and something bites you when you sleep. The only other option in the town of Kemptville that I found was a worse place that looked like a drug house. I wished I... More

The place stinks of smoke like a beer hall the morning after. The rooms have lumpy unusable beds. The management is both surly and incompetent. I was able to connect to the wireless network only if I sat in the reception area, but it had no Internet access anyway so I insisted on my money back. For $6 more, I... More

We stayed a night there without previous planning following finding it on the google map as the closest hotel to our location in our way to Ottawa at late night. Surprisingly, the inn address was incorrect and guided us to a wrong place. I opened Trip Advisor app and only there I succeeded to find its right address. About the... More

Although there is nothing out of this world about this hotel, I found my room to be adequate, the staff to be friendly and found my 3 night stay there enjoyable. The hotel is older however, being in Kemptville, the choices for hotels are limited and I was satisfied with my stay at this location.

We luckily only stayed one night, but the beds were not comfortable, especially if you're sharing a bed with someone. The bathroom was disgusting and the air conditioning barely worked. Very creepy and smelt like smoke everywhere. Definitely DO NOT recommend this motel, however it is difficult to find a hotel in Kemptville other than this one.

This hotel needs updated, but we feel we got what we paid for. older, but clean and decent. Not much for breakfast, its not like the other howard johnsons we stayed in, but served the purpose.

That summarizes the hotel. we travelled with 2 kids and it was horrendously kept hotel. I wonder if Howard Johnson people have ever visited this place before they allowed this motel to be under their brand name. Do not even think of staying here if you are travelling with kids!!
