The room smelled so bad we had to leave and stay somewhere else. The bed had stains and the hotel was overall very run down. Staff was helpful and friendly.
The property is well located. The restaurant attached was helpful to have and saves the drive into town. Pretty good menu. The building and room were a bit dingy, dated and old. I’m surprised that they took a deposit of $200 at check in for missing items and damage, if any. I don’t think anything in The room cumulatively would total $200 value! That said, the deposit was reversed instantaneously after we checked out.
Plenty of parking.
Having a fan in the room or air conditioning in the rooms would make it nice for the very hot summer days - other than that it was a good stay! Recommend for a well.maintained comfy stay on your journey
Located about 4kms outside Kenora..
Parking is a nightmare for motorcycles...very acute angle
Check in desk is in the gas station and closes at 10pm so don't arrive late
Restaurant attached is decent for breakfast
Room is ok bathroom is tiny
Mattress not good
We were not able to stay at LakeVu Motel. My husband was immediately stuffed up from the mould in the room. The staff member who checked us in was very helpful and apologized for the condition of the room.
The office closed at 9pm so I needed to make sure we arrived by then which was difficult. Their wifi was down so I couldn’t check in for at least a half hour. The shower nozzle was about 4’ high from the floor. There was hair on the bathroom floor when we arrived. The staff were quite friendly however and the room was kind of what I thought it would be at such a cheap rate.
Kinda clean, not updated or remodeled, but cheap. Good enough for a work trip.
Overall I am satisfied with my stay.

Disliked: Staff & service, amenities
It was a place to sleep, not much for TV to relax as I fell asleep. Shower took forever to figure out as part of the mechanism was broken, very little hot water. The room was clean but the air circulation was very loud. Restaurant was excellent close by.

Difficulties finding out the motel office was in the gas station, very busy place.Very small parking lot for our cargo van,but we made it work with the help of 2 bikers. No room A/C but room was comfortable. Would like to suggest drop box for room keys. The gas station doesn't open until 7am and we desired to leave sooner.
