Homeward Inns of Canada

Very accommodating! The front desk was exceptionally friendly and helpful. I couldn’t get the tv going but I didn’t ask for help either so I won’t complain much about that :) The view from my room was just the highway/another building but I didn’t go there for the view. The motel is so conveniently located between many fast food options. Check out is seamless. Can leave keys in the room, or bring them to the receptionist! Can’t beat the prices at homeward! I was also travelling with a pet which they happily accommodated for a small fee. Will always return to this spot!

Just the T.V I couldn’t get working but it might have been my electronic skills.

Clayton and Diane and Reaghan in the office were always available, cheerful and helpful, with coffee and creamers and local directions. Housekeeping was unobtrusively attentive. Much nearby is walkable, like the Snow Queen diner, the St. FX campus (for theatre or sporting events), and even Main Street is walkable in nice weather (we encountered rain and so drove for meals on Main Street during our visit). Antigonish is a nice launching pad for Cape Breton after a drive up from Halifax.

Meaning no disrespect, I might describe this motel as two-star accommodations with a five-star heart. Nothing fancy, but absolutely perfect, depending upon what you need ... roomy sleeping quarters in a great location with wonderful staff.

Place was clean, comfortable, and worth the fee. Nearby conveniences/restaurants very handy. Was able to request hair dryer at front desk (not in room). Nice little fridge and microwave, keurig machine with pods and real creamers. Nice to be able to park 4 feet from my door!

Not serious, but helpful: 1) Kindly put some rubber grips on the bathtub floors! I am disabled with balance problems, and yes a wall bar is great, but that sucker was still slippery! 2) Leave a plastic sheet guide telling guests * how to adjust the heat pump*. Googling Greer remote control guides at 3am is not fun! Once I figured it out though, lots of heat 😁

The location is excellent -- close to several fast-food restaurants and to StFX University. The property is attractive. The room was spacious. A/C was great! Having a small fridge and microwave is very helpful.

The bed and pillows weren't the most comfortable -- pillows were mushy and the mattress was hard. The light from the heat pump display is very bright at night. Meanwhile, it would be nice if there was some kind of nightlight for the bathroom. I would prefer having hair conditioner as well as shampoo (not an all-in-one).

Very reasonably priced. Convenient location. Strong WIFI. Easy to get in and out of. Fast and easy to deal with reception. Friendly people.

I found there was a lot of noise from the surrounding guests who were out on the walkways between the units. There was no desk at which to sit to use my computer The washroom didn't have much room to lay out shaving supplies or other toiletries. Not place to put towels you were using.

The lady at the desk was incredibly kind and welcoming. The room was cute and quaint, the beds and pillows were very comfy! The location cannot be beat and the rate is very reasonable. This is my second time staying at this property and it will be my go to when travelling to Antigonish.

No complaints.

A very convenient stopover. Rooms were well equipped for self-catering.

There was no kettle - unable to make a cup of tea that didn’t taste of coffee. Despite all the equipment (cooker/microwave) only one set of cutlery and crockery.

Staff was super friendly and helpful. Room was clean & tidy, with way more amenities than I had expected for the price. Water was nice and hot to shower with great water pressure. This Inn is located on one of the busier streets in town, close to multiple restaurants and within walking distance of just about everything. We're from the area, but I would say this is a great spot to stay for anyone who is looking to explore & learn more about Antigonish & it's culture, while ultimately not breaking the bank. :)

Breakfast very good. Lots of choices. Staff were friendly and helpful. Good location for us.

We had booked the room at a good rate and then we had to cancel because our flight was canceled due to weather. We were able to get another flight so we called back within a couple of hours to book but they wouldn’t us thaw original rate so that was disappointing. Not great customer service.

The front desk staff are lovely and accommodating! I also love that the rooms have heat pumps.

the rooms seem updated in some senses, but I had to move rooms late in the evening my last stay when I realized none of the outlets in the room worked - all of the receptacles in the room were loose and wouldn’t hold a plug in them.
