Check in was quick and easy. However, the room was pretty dirty starting from the floor to the beds. My friend found a tick in her leg after lying in the bed for a bit so not sure if that came from outside or the bed itself because when we lifted up the pillows, we saw several other bugs like mosquitoes and flies. Clearly, the place is not cleaned well and I am hoping I didn't bring back any bed bugs. On top of that, there was a storm overnight and we lost power at 3 am. This meant that when we woke up at 7:30 am, there was no electricity, running water or internet. I tried to contact the front desk but noone answered. We could hear generators working all around our motel but ours was not attended to at all. We checked out early to try and freshen up elsewhere. Definitely avoid this place!

Stay was what you can expect from a Motel, but during our stay electricity and water went off midnight. Not sure what they would expect guest to do without water and electricity.

Endroit bien situé. Par contre, l'endroit a besoin de rénovations. Il y a beaucoup de clarté car se sont de vieux stores verticaux en plastique. Les serviettes étaient de bonne qualité, les lits étaient super! Le propriétaire était très gentil car nous avons une arrivée tardive, et la chambre était illuminée. Le motel est situé en face de l'eau et le départ de la croisière. J'y retournerais pour un petit séjour.

This was advertised as waterfront but it's over a block away from the water. Definitely false advertising. It was an $80-a-night place that we paid $250 for. The bathroom needed an overhaul and the beds were terrible. For that price, we expected a lot more.

The Capricorn was in a beautiful location right on the water. This hotel was fairly well kept. The exterior was lovely and well maintained. The inside was dated, yet tidy. The room did have a bit of a musty smell but completely tolerable. The staff that greeted us was very friendly and helpful. Check in was easy. I think this motel has great potential with some minor upgrades.

Very basic motel, severely overpriced

This hotel is very basic: the room is VERY small and dark, there is little privacy, and no breakfast. The service is close to non-existent: I spent 15 minutes trying to locate someone who would check me in. The guy was not rude per se, but he had trouble understanding my accent, and simply avoided the conversation, not wanting to make an effort. There are cheaper hotels in Gananoque with much better condition. This hotel has a certain rustic hippie community charm, and it would be OK for one night for CAD $100, but at CAD $200 it is severely overpriced. The only thing going for it is location, but saving 10 minutes on driving is simply not worth it. I would not return, nor would I recommend this motel to my friends.
