Now I know why they have 1 star
Reviewed By 65deeDirty.. creeky stained floors. Chicken bones spread all through the hallway for the 20 hours we Were there they were never picked up or disposed of. Definitely some sketchy drug use/prostitution going on in there. Side door opened all night with a rock definitely didn’t feel comfortable or safe being there. Not worth 150$ a night and won’t be back. PS absolutely no room to swim in the pool and dangerous for little ones as the pool is literally only big enough to come down the slide.. also hit the bottom every time we did use the slide. 1 star is very accurate

Okay, but not great
Reviewed By NhikerThe motel is not exactly facing the lake, but it is near enough. The rooms were okay, though ours was a bit stuffy and the windows were low and faced the front, so we did not feel we could leave them open A minimum breakfast is brought to the room in the morning.
3. Atlantic View Motel & Cottages
Overall Ratings
4 based on 156 reviews
A peaceful seaside destination in a woodland setting; just one minute from historic Lunenburg.You'll hear the waves lapping at the shoreline from your choice of accommodation - a cozy cottage, housekeeping unit, or comfortable motel room. In the morning have coffee on the beach or in our pond-site sitting area while the sea gulls and red-winged blackbird greet the day.Families will love the Atlantic View's ample green space and beach where children can run, play in the waves and swim. This is a perfect location for vacationing sea kayakers and cyclists, and golfers will have a spectacular and challenging nine-hole course just over the hill from us. Historic Old Town Lunenburg, designated a World Heritage Site by UNESCO for its exceptional architecture, natural beauty and working waterfront, is only 1.5 km away.
A nice place to stay just over the hill from Lunenburg
Reviewed By NhikerThe room is fine. The wifi is iffy. The motel is located just a few minutes beyond a high hill overlooking Lunenberg. This same high hill provides one of the best glimpses of old town Lunenberg. The motel itself does have nice views of the Atlantic Ocean as well as a pond behind the rooms.

Great Location
Reviewed By ko372Stayed here 2 nights. The room was very clean. Bed was comfortable. Very quiet. The decor is dated, but kept up. The location was the best and so were the views. It was also nice to be able to eat a delicious dinner both nights at the restaurant. Staff was friendly and helpful.

Just outside the old town, quiet and comfortable
Reviewed By SMTasWe stayed two nights. The motel is an older establishment with the rooms in parallel blocks up the hill behind the house/reception, and well away from the road. Comfortable, very clean, room with good beds, small bathroom, alcove for tea/coffee making and including a microwave. Opening windows, parking at the door. Being so far from the road it was very quiet, and windows could be opened for nice fresh air. The motel is about 1.5km from the old town, a very pleasant walk. There is a supermarket next to the motel, and a Tim Hortons across the road from that. At the time we stayed the biggest bonus was that you were removed from the dreadful smell in the old town (caused by ongoing drainage problems) though hopefully that is all fixed by now. Lunenburg, apart from being an interesting historic town (and in that vein, don't miss nearby Mahone Bay which is very beautiful), is a good place from which to explore Western Nova Scotia, and is far cheaper and easier paced than Halifax.

Okay for one night
Reviewed By SuperJ1103Seams like a great place except the cottage we had wasnt the cleanest. Floor were dirty ( walking barefoot would leave you with black feet) leftover of the previous party ( beer, hash tray full) bedding and bathroom appeared clean though. So I’d say good for one night.

So disappointed
Reviewed By shelleysV3796BWToday when making a reservation at our favourite little place to stay, the lady at the front desk was so rude! Then Wouldn’t let me speak to the manager when asked, and was not helpful at all! She was so rude that we have decided to take our business elsewhere! We were regulars there and now, I can’t see us ever going back! Beware of the hateful woman on the front desk at the Greensboro Inn in New Minas! I have sent so many people there in the past, now I’ll warn everyone to stay away! Maybe she was having a bad day? Either way, I also work in customer service and it doesn’t permit being rude or swearing over the phone regardless of how your day is going. We are so very Disappointed!!

Pleasant, but a little pricey
Reviewed By gniteIreneWhen we booked our room through booking.com, it stated that breakfast was included in the price. Just before we arrived, the owner left me a voice message stating that he couldn’t provide breakfast because of Covid-19 protocols. When we arrived at the motel, the owner was friendly but said he couldn’t give me a discount or a voucher (to make up for not providing the advertised breakfast) as I did not book directly with him. After much discussion, he did take $10.00 off the price of the room. We had room #1 and the living space had been recently renovated with laminate flooring, and included a new tv, small table and chairs and comfortable beds. The bathroom had not been renovated, could have been much cleaner, and needed a new toilet and shower curtain. Although this was our most expensive motel during our 2 week road trip to the Maritimes, it was a good location for an overnight stop. The big sign out front advertising free breakfast should be removed and the website updated until the free breakfast is reinstated.
10. Cape View Motel and Cottages
Overall Ratings
4 based on 155 reviews
Cape View Motel and Cottages, Mavillette, Digby County, Nova Scotia, Canada is far enough away to be enjoyable, and yet close enough to have all the amenities of two Nova Scotia towns. Yarmouth is only 20 mile drive with Digby a mere 40 miles. Enjoy a comforting stay while exploring a picture postcard view of Mavillette Beach, Cape St., Mary's fishing village, lighthouse, Saint Mary's Bay and the Bay of Fundy!
