Motel Casino (Gatineau, Canada)

Reception provides a warm and friendly welcome. They are helpful with area recommendations and give guests free bus tickets to the local area.

The rooms are extremely spacious and provide a comfortable stay. Many rooms have microwaves and refrigerators. Free parking is a nice feature. Overall, the hotel provides a good value considering the inexpensive rate that's paid.

A short drive will bring you to all you might need to do in the area. There are many choices for shops and restaurants and some entertainment options other than the local casino.

The exterior gives a very tired feel. It's old looking and need renovating badly. The interior common spaces aren't much better and leave a bad impression. They also have an unpleasant smell. Overall, a fresh coat of paint and modernization would go a long way towards improving first impressions.

While Wi-Fi is free, it doesn't provide a steady or strong stream. Temperature in the rooms is also very hard to regulate, as guests will have to request temperature changes through the front desk rather than controlling it from the room. The walls are also rather thin and it's possible to hear noises from the hallway.

Although the hotel advertises a continental breakfast, there isn't one provided. There isn't free coffee either. Instead, guests have use of a breakfast table if they should wish to bring their own food.
