La propreté laissait à désirer, l'air climatisé était ultra bruyant et ne fonctionnait pas (chambre ultra chaude). Bon emplacement et pratique le St-Hubert à côté.

Clean motel with very comfortable beds. We stayed in a room furthest from the office and the water temperature and water pressure were both not great. A/C unit was never able to get the room cool and ran continuously in its efforts to try.

Older motel but renovated

Quick pit stop on the way to our destination. The staff was nice to accommodate our late arrival. Older motel but renovated. Room was small but had everything we needed.

We had stayed there before and the rooms did seem to have some updates like the bathrooms. There is still a faint smell of smoke in the rooms which could be from the carpets as I don't think they have been replaced in years. Also the mattresses are comfortable but the bed frames could really be replaced as ours, at least, was very squeaky. I like that there is a restaurant right there though.

Clean, comfortable, spacious room…great to have a “family” room option with 3 double beds and ample towels and facecloths..no need to have to request more. Also handy to have a restaurant on site.

Motel Cartier has been my go to on the way east from Ontario for many years. It has consistently been convenient with clean rooms. The motel is a bit old school but has everything you need to be comfortable. Restaurant on site. Gas and Convenience Store next door.
