You have to understand that "Very Good" is a relative rating, given the class of motel I am rating. In terms of "cheap motel", the Superior Motel is good because it offers clean rooms, a convenient location, and low rates. There's wifi, most rooms have fridges and microwaves, and the owner is pleasant. If you are looking for a clean... More

I tried Superior Motel because of the other reviews I read via my TripAdvisor iPhone app. It met my price requirements and had the most amazing bathtub for such a little motel. No real downside to this place. I'd definitely stay again. More

I recently stayed at Cumberland Superior Motel. Its dated and requires updating on all fronts. There is language barrier which makes it difficult and has caused billing and booking disorganization. Marie, is a very strict with her clients whom stayed there to a point of being "Stereo-typed" Not all First Nations young men are drinkers and should not be judged... More

Stayed in room 9, near end of September. After paying $120 at the Airlane a few weeks before, for a dreadful experience, I wondered how far my 60 bucks would take me in the Superior. OMG I was astounded! On entering the room ( smoking room ) it was fresh, clean, spotless carpet. Walls appeared to have been painted recently... More

I love the Superior Hotel. I live in Geraldton and often need to stay overnight in Thunder Bay and stay nowhere else unless I have no choice. We always get our family room if available and Maria is always so pleasant and so is her husband. The hotel Mascott "Polly" their pug dog is also always welcoming and stands guard... More

On the positive side, this motel was clean, had excellent air conditioning, new bathroom with lots of hot water and our small Maltese dog was welcomed. For the price of $60 all included per night, it was a good deal where we felt safe and had a place to call home for the 4 days we were there. On the... More

We have stay'd at the superior motel several times in the past 2-3 years. Always clean, very plain and nice and quiet. Service could be a bit more affable, but the lady in charge has a no-nonse attitude though she is honest and nice enough. Lack of language skills a small problem. I gladly recommended to anyone who wants a... More

The old lady was very rude not taking $100 bill suspecting it to be counterfeit and little bit yelling about late check in (about 10 pm). Also we were charged $60, not $55 for two and she said that $55 that I was told did not include the tax, which is not the case to other people when I read... More
