Wonderful

Great place to stay if your looking to do Cabot trail and going to the Sydney area, the rooms were cleaned every day and staff were friendly and recommended a dinner place near by.
Convenient for taking the ferry to Newfoundland. No dining options on the vicinity for late arrivals. I suggest a list of available TV channels be provided to save extensive channel surfing to find anything at all.

Kelly’s View Motel offers a beautiful spot to watch the sunset. The rooms were clean and cozy. The bathrooms are a little outdated, but that didn’t take away from the overall experience. I had a great stay and would definitely come back again!
The owner was rude and very desperate for customers.
Expedia should do better investigating of these properties....we are not living in the dark ages, certain amenities are a necessity especially air conditioning in summer.
Cute little motel. Room was clean and it was in a great location for travelling around the area for a couple of days.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities
The staffs are very friendly. The room and the bathroom were clean. Unfortunately, it has no air-conditioned. However, the price of the room is very reasonable and the location is very close to ferry harbor.
It was a perfect location off the Trans Canada highway and just about a 15km drive from the ferry terminal. Sadly no restaurant. If looking for a place to stay after getting off the ferry or just because your unroute, this place is excellent, just eat before getting off the ferry. The owner is very friendly and prepared to go out of her way for her traveling customers.
