The problem with this property is the manager,I believe owner.I have never received this much disrespect and poor treatment from any hotel in my life.I arrived at 1pm after 31 hrs on the road with little sleep.I spoke to 2 staff members who checked with the manager.She refused my request. I was informed my room would be ready around 1:15.I asked to speak to the manager.She refused. I went to eat and wait. I returned at 2:50.I went to office and asked to check in and was told to wait until 3pm.I believe this woman was the manager. When I came back 10 minutes later,another woman checked me in without problem.I explained what had happened and asked her tell the manager that I would like to speak to her and left her my contact information.Next day, I asked if my request had been delivered and was told it had.I have not heard from the manager.My problem is with the management of the Stardust Motel and not the staff who were excellent.If I not already paid for my stay,I would have gone somewhere else.My check in was terrible.

Noisy at might. Clean but small room. Overchargèd for four nights and had to call and discuss the billing charges. Finally got it settled. But did not stay the second night due to the noise.

Convenient location- close to Halifax Very clean Staff there is so genuinely kind, I thought she was the owner but she indicated she was an employee. She is a gem and I hope owners recognize this! Cleaners on previous stay even asked how we liked it. You can see how hard they work. Don’t think I’ve ever had cleaners ask before. Beautiful view! Would definitely stay again.

Large room with kitchen and full sized fridge. We had an excellent experience with staff when our check in time was complicated by travel delays. Beautiful setting. The only drawback was the lack of access space on one side of the bed. It needed another 8 - 12 inches.
