Hard to find parking as there were several transports taking up most of the parking spaces. The drivers were congregated just below our room and were boisterous and noisy. Some of the trucks were left running and also very noisy. It was supposed to be an updated suite, but with the exception of a very small area of newly tiled floor in the bathroom area there were no other updates. Did not feel safe here and barricaded the door! Not recommended!

The owners are very kind and courteous. On checking in we were advised to request room cleans if needed as we were staying a few days. It is not done daily which is totally understandable as most guests are overnites. The room was very clean, fresh linens, quite comfortable. It is conveniently located right in Bruce Mines in front of marina. Close to all ammenities etc. The owners are constantly updating the motel and are doing a really great job at the renovations. The rates are very reasonable. This is now our second stay and will definitely return when necessary. Good job Bavarian Inn.....keep up the great work.
