Comfortable for a long weekend

Review of PJ's Motel
3.0 of 5 bubblesReviewed 17 Aug 2016
My group stayed in several rooms for 3 nights while we dove the many wrecks in the St. Lawrence River. I was surprised how comfortable my roommate and I were there. You get a bad impression when you first enter the room due to a strange smell but after running the a/c for a while, the odor goes away. Perhaps the carpeting needs replaced or something. On the plus side, the a/c worked well for August, the TV was good, the bathroom was very clean and bright and there was a lot of hot water with good shower pressure. Not sure what the room cost since we paid a set price to our group leader but it did seem reasonable. Don't get me wrong--this is not a 5-star establishment-but for a bunch of guys (maybe not girls) on a dive vacation, it was fine. Keep in mind that we are not picky and are easily pleased.

Reviewed 3 September 2015

We were three couples attending a wedding. Our room reeked and the windows did'nt open so I had to run the a/c constantly. The sheets on the bed had a huge yellow stain, both top and bottom, which made me question whether they were even washed. One couple's sheets had blood on them and no toilet paper in the room.
Paper bath mats, ceiling had obviously leaked in the bathroom and they didn't bother to repair the damage, only one towel, the wi-fi was very bad in our room, none at all in the other rooms. I could write more but I'm trying to forget the experience.

Room tip: Go somewhere else

We are sorry your experience at our motel as we strive for excellence at our establishment. Cleanliness is a very important thing to us here and my staff takes pride in a job well done. We maintain a log book on each room each day it is cleaned and by whom so that if an issue arises we can address it properly. Since nothing was reported to us during the stay it is difficult to ascertain details but rest assured I will look into and address the issues described and we will correct the aforementioned issues. I certainly would have corrected the problems raised if given the opportunity. Again I apologize and wish you all well. God bless. Pam

We stayed last weekend at PJs this was the second consecutive year. We were in the area for a charity golf tournament. The location was great--just 3 miles from the golf course. We had 5 rooms booked which were clean and perfectly adequate. The owners Pam and John are awesome hosts they went over and beyond to make our stay enjoyable-thank you for the fire ring and campfire wood. We did enjoy some delicious munchies and cocktails in the bar area. Thank you Shannon for introducing us to the salty chocolate pretzel shot. We will definitely return next year thanks again.

Thought we should let you know we took your response under advisement and there is now a privacy divider between the toilet shower area and the sink area ...thank you for the comment as it brought a very important issue to our attention so we could address it. We look to our patrons to continue improvements as always. Thank you for staying with us. Pam
