Spanish River Inn

Room was not clean especially the bathroom. Other occupants that were staying there made us not feel safe. Staff was not overly helpful when addressing these concerns.

If you don’t mind the 70’s decor and just need a place to rest your head, this place is fine. Bathroom in need of updates due to the spalling and mildew laden caulking and yellowed 70s tiles. Parking lot not plowed. Only myself and another room occupied and I was placed right next door despite there being many other rooms apparently vacant.

Little hole in the wall spot - good for a night when passing through northern Ontario. Would not book a trip around the location. There isn’t much to eat and very few amenities. Just a bed to sleep in on route to bigger and better things

This motel was the worst one in our entire trip across Canada. We arrived and were hit with a musty chemical door reminiscent of an old basement. The carpet was stained and awful, the bathroom was not something I would clean myself in, the air conditioner was not something I would want to breath the air from. The smoke detector was encased with brown discolouration of some sort and had a dead wasp completely stuck to it, the chain lock latch was broken off the door frame as if the door was broken through. There was a door that you could not lock on the opposite side of the room that led to an unknown area. The door to outside didn’t have a proper lock at all, no deadbolt, no chain, just the lock on a doorknob much like that of a home bathroom. My husband and I couldn’t imagine sleeping in the room and felt immediately dirty when there. We took our baby and pet and left 30 minutes after arriving to our next town destination because there was no chance we were going to stay. I would not recommend anyone stay here.

I was looking for a quick and convenient spot to spend the night while traveling. It had a clean bed, super easy parking and the staff was really nice. The bed while firmer than I would like, was possibly the most comfy I had on my trip. My understanding from other reviews is that this place is under new management and they are working on it. My room had some spiders living on the door. When the door first opened a few of them went into the room and settled in around the door. While I appreciate that spiders are a natural form of pest control, I didn't quite appreciate having them as roommates for the evening. The larger web on the outside door I had to duck under a bit to get in/out of the room. There was a huge spider on it, I've got a bit of a fear of spiders so there was no way I was going to be touching it. I was okay-ish with the spiders so as long as they kept to their side of the room. Some of them did, some I couldn't account for their location in the morning. There were some stains on the floor and the room smelled of WD30 which I assume was from some repairs that had been done. There was a second locked door leading to what I am assuming is a hall for staff. Having no key or deadbolt to block that door, I did end up moving a chair to block the door for added security. There wasn't a deadbolt on the main door which had been removed. Putting back deadbolts would add to the feeling of safety, especially for solo guests.

We did not stay at this property because the building was shut down for repairs. Notice to Comply notice on window re: structural repairs and also mold removal. Owner not onsite and refused to give refund.
