Reviews for Island View Motel

Review 1:The phone didn't work at all, he had to come and get the television working, the wifi was fine. But he did it with no complaints. I forgot to tell him the phone didn't work.

Review 2:The manager was very nice and I just gave him my laundry and $10 Canadian, and the next morning it was all done for me, folded, etc., which was nice. A pleasant man. I liked I could see the Bay of Fundy from the room too.

Review 3:Musty smell in some rooms, but we got to choose .Have stayed in all of the older motels in that area and they all have that smell.

Review 4:It is next door to produce store, which is nice . It had a very nice new bathroom/ tub in the room that we had . The Microwave and fridge were convenient. The staff was very helpful and it was clean . Its not a 5 star hotel but good value for the money . .

Review 5:There is no shampoo or hair dryer and only coffee (no tea or breakfast available) in the morning. It's a significant drive into uptown Saint John.

Review 6:The bed was comfortable and the heating worked well. People at the front desk were friendly. It was quiet. It's right next to a farmers market that sells yummy ice cream!

Review 9:It is a bare-bones clean place to stay for the night on the cheap.

Review 10:It was the cheapest place we stayed in 10 days and the only less impressive ones were TWO Super 8's. About like an EconoLodge in small towns.

Review 18:It was close to a fresh produce shop and we could enjoy making our own meals.we also could use the laundry down in basement,basic but did the job.room and separate bathroom were well heated.

Review 19:Carpet needed attention. A glass would have been nice.

Review 20:It is what it is, a $65 room. Clean enough and the owner let me use his laundry facility, much appreciated!

Review 21:The buildings are old and a little run down , so it wouldn't be a destination location for us ...

Review 22:We liked it's location , so close to the highway ,restaurants and shops .We stayed twice recently and the first time had to request coffee in the AM in their office ...they said they wasted a lot if they made it without request. On our 2nd visit ...they saw us , remembered and made coffee unasked. Lovely owners . Beds were comfortable. Quiet sleeps . Great for an overnight along the way . Price was amazing .

Review 61:one word sums up this motel....comfortable - meaning comfy and affordable which is what you're looking for at the end of a day of driving. The owners are soooo friendly and always happy too.

Review 62:A poor motel, none of the plugs worked so it was useless having the microwave, or so we thought. In the morning we were told you plug it into the cooker! In addition the fridge was so loud it woke us every time it came on. Despite the wesite stating that there was breakfast provided this was not in the package and there was nowhere to eat in the local area. Basic is the only word to describe it.

Review 63:Hot and powerful shower

Review 64:When we checked in,room#9. I expected wifi as that was what was advertised,not so as we were to far from the modem to even pick up a signal.I checked into room nine and as we enter the room a strong smell of mold permeated the room.I let the manager know my concerns immediately,he had no other rooms and told us we had to pay more,not likely I informed him he advertised wifi and A clean room or give us our money back and we would leave,that And I would also call booking dot com and inform them,management relented and we got another room.I should have known as you get what you pay for and this place doesn't have much to offer. When I talked with the manager To explain the situation and he became rude and tried to stear me down this I shouldn't have to do.
