Auberge sur Mer (Motels au bord de l'eau) — Restaurant in Saint-Siméon

The site of this inn (auberge) is magnificent, facing the Ferry dock, where we arrived with our car. The owner gave us an upper level room, which had a beautiful view. The room itself was very small and the bathroom was barely sufficient for one person. The bed was below regular standard. The restaurant - by the same name has the same owner, but the residents of the hotel do not get special rates or attention.

We ended up staying two nights, because it suited our plans, not because we loved the hotel nor the owner. When asked him for advice about location of services in the town, such as a tourism office, or a food shop, his information was vague and...

We had recently stayed at this hotel and had a rather pleasant experience overall. The room was clean but overall outdated. We arrived in the night and stayed there on our way to Tadoussac, if you will arrive late take cash with you, otherwise you might be charged twice just as us. Card didn't work, I went and withdraw cash and paid for the room but after returning back home I find out that card was also charged that night. I called couple of times but was not refunded. In any case, it was a nice stay and staff was welcoming and friendly. While there may be some areas where the hotel could use updates and renovations, there is friendlyness and service by the staff. It was a good memory after all, so I would rather recommend this hotel for a short stay. You can also walk along the shore and have a breakfast at the...
