I enjoyed my stay at Voyageur house very much. I needed a cheap place that did not require credit card deposit and a comfortable bed as I had a very challenging week. I will be back.

Parking difficult because the driveway only holds 2 cars and I had to ask them to remove the large amount of snow around my car to get out. Shower took about 20 minutes to get hot water - was needing to get showered so I started a cold shower. Very uncomfortable.

I accidentally forgot the code to open the front door when going out to purchase food. Upon coming back, there was no one to open the door. I have tried reaching someone by phone 17 TIMES on 5 different phone numbers and additionally rang the door bell at least as often. NO ANSWER. I was obligated to find another place to sleep for the night. NOT RECOMMENDED.

This is the first time sharing a bathroom and it wasn’t very nice. The room was so hot. The first time was able to cover up the register the second time I couldn’t find the register but looked under the bed and it was just disgusting.

The condition of the property I saw online before booking was totally substandard compared to what i paid for, eventually it looked very expensive for such property, The room was not convenient, I complained about the heater not been hot, because the room was cold, I had to sleep with my sweeter and winter jacket on. If I had not made payment online, I would have walked away. The staff were awesome, I had no issues with the staff, just the property which was substandard.

All good so far, though posting person is not always available. Hesitant to disturb them early in the morning to make a call. Can use amenities anytime available in the entrance.

Checked into the room was slow, had to call someone from outside and waited for the guy to return from the store Got the key to room and went for supper Returned to finally relax for the evening at approx 930 and found BED BUGS crawling all over the bedsheets Immediately called staff who attended the room immediately, advised no other rooms available and we found ourselves out on the street in a strange town at 10PM with no place to go After a half hour on the phone with Expedia, and escalation to a supervisor, they finally made arrangements to credit us to get a hotel Thank you to Expedia for the resolution. As far as this dive of a room rental, needless to say, stay far away
