The hotel owner was very helpful and welcoming. It's rare to find such a motel in the Ontario mountains. The location is also excellent, right across from a gas station and convenience store. Breakfast is provided. However, because the motel is in the mountains, there were too many small flying insects in the room during the summer.

The staff were cooperative and helpful. Not bad when all the hotels are fully booked during the CME in Timmins. Had to travel 250 odd kms to find a place.

Always a good place to stay!

I've been stopping at the Frontiersman Motel for years, and every single time it was good. The rooms are clean, the bathrooms are clean too. The service is always friendly and welcoming. I highly recommend this place. Please keep up the good work you are doing!

Highway hotel that has not been updated in 40+ years. Windows are sliding glass panes without insulation or sound proofing. Location and staff are the plus if you need to stay in the area.

Clean room and bathroom. Comfortable bed. Gas station directly across the street, with food options. It’s right on Hwy 11 which is convenient for location, but also a bit noisy with vehicles travelling through the night.

Give it a try

This is a cool little place and a great little town of latchford. Although the motel doesn't look like much from the outside it is very clean and accessible. Staff is great and attends to all your needs.

Always a good experience

The motel is clean, freshly painted. Washrooms are clean and newly renovated. The decor is simple but tasteful. The service is always friendly and welcoming. I have been staying in this motel at least 15 times and every time the experience was good. Keep up great work!

Very nice and professional owner and nice clean rooms, unfortunately a local resident of the town climbed onto the roof near my bathroom window in the middle of the night and made very loud noises aswell as smoking.

Not accessible.. my lack of research I guess. I managed. Rooms were relatively clean but very old and tired.. some stains can’t be washed away. Due to lack of places to stay, I hope this place stays open; it is good for work stays or urgent need pit stops. We probably won’t stay here again, it was a quick booking for work, and perfect for that.

Property is too close to the highway and there is a lot of truck traffic all night. Very difficult to sleep. The room seemed clean, but the furniture was dated. Absolutely nothing around the motel except an Esso gas station that did serve some food. OK for an overnight except for the heavy traffic noise.

We stayed here for one night. We were really disappointed in the condition of our room. The carpet was really dirty, the comforters had grease stains and food bits on them. The extra blanket in the drawer had tons of hairs on it. The bathroom door handle was broken. The beds were extremely uncomfortable and you can hear every car and truck that drives by.

The cleaning services were difficult. Every day we had to remind the front desk to clean the room and the last day the cleaning wasn't done at all. The surfaces in the main room weren't wiped and the coffee cups were never replaced. I felt taken advantage of and will avoid staying here in the future.
