What guests think

Across reviews, travellers describe Champlain Motor Inn as a clean, recently renovated budget stop with friendly owners, comfortable beds, and good value, though a few note musty or smoke odors and occasional noise from thin walls or loud AC.

Several reviews mention practical touches like kitchenettes or full-size fridges in some rooms, easy parking, and a guest barbeque. Service is largely accommodating, with smooth check-ins and occasional complimentary upgrades, but there are isolated reports of a reserved bed type not honored, limited towel availability, and an extra charge for two people. The location is convenient to stores and parks and is generally quiet at night, though one guest found the back area felt sketchy. Expect a straightforward, well-kept stay.

Second stay at Champlain Motel with my husband and our dog. Prompt and friendly service. We were upgraded to a larger room with a kitchenette at no extra charge. Comfortable beds. Very clean and I always appreciate when hotel/motel rooms does not have carpet. We enjoyed the use of the Barbeque they provided for their guest.

This unassuming motor hotel had a small kitchenette, and dining area in the room. The room and bathroom were clean, and a/c worked well. Despite being on a main street we did not hear any noise. Staff was very nice and welcoming.

For a budget motel, it’s pretty good, and from what I hear from the locals, it’s the best budget motel in the area. The walls in my room were pretty thin, I could hear muffled conversations of the couple staying next-door, and there were a few minor repairs needed in the room. A portion of the wall next to the tub needs to be repaired and there’s a few minor, aesthetic concerns, but besides that, it’s an OK place. My room had an actual full-size fridge in it, which isn’t something you see a lot in budget motels. And the beds were comfortable. I got a good night sleep. And I guess in the end, that’s all that matters.

Très interessant comme option d'hébergement. Ce Motor Inn a été rénové et tout est propre et fonctionnel. Frigo, cafétière, micro ondes, planche à repasser mais pas de fer. Il est très bien entretenu.

I spilled some water on the floor in front of the fridge so I wiped it up with toilet paper and the paper was black after wiping. We took a walk around to the backyard and it looked like a sketchy area. Operators were very pleasant and helpful. It was quiet mostly because of good neighbours.

Very disappointed! Upon arriving at the motel our King bed room that we reserved and paid for was not available. Waking the next morning went to take shower and we only had one bath towel for two people , front desk people weren’t available to get another towel. Very noisy air conditioner. Rooms were clean and the area was nice.

Rooms were recently renovated. Beds very comfortable. Best motel I’ve ever stayed in, would be happy to stay again.

I have stayed twice in this hotel this year, both for business trip. Without being extra luxurious, it really does the trick, is comfortable and clean. I travel a lot for work and it is one of the hotels you love on the road, short and sweet to check in, still has a decent price in this economy, has what you need, etc. Will book there again if I come to pembrooke in the future or recommend to friends and coworkers.

They want to help make your stay the best and more than once told “if there is anything you need, please do not hesitate to ask” I was there for 3 nights , beds lovely , rooms clean… only a bit of musty smell , but the hotel is not brand new… but has been updated! I am very pleased and will definitely return
