This is an auberge and motel property at 27 Rue des Cèdres, with rooms in the main inn and chalet-style motel lodging beside it. The main inn has rooms on the upper floors, including rooms with a double bed and a single bed; some have a private bathroom outside the room, while the third-floor rooms use a shared bathroom on that floor. One room has a river view, and another has a view toward the St. Lawrence.

The motel side is more self-contained. Some chalets include a queen bed or double bed with a bathroom and kitchenette, while other chalets add a living room and a full kitchen. One chalet has a queen bed, bathroom, living room, full kitchen, and a view of the river.

The stay works well for travelers who want practical independence rather than a large hotel setup. Motel chalets have either a kitchen or kitchenette for preparing meals, and the property also has outdoor picnic tables and a fire ring. Breakfast, lunch, and dinner are offered in season, with meals needing advance reservation.

Outdoor parking is available on the property, and Wi-Fi is listed among the room equipment. Dogs are accepted in the motel with an extra cleaning fee, so travelers with a dog should choose the motel side rather than assuming the inn rooms accept pets.

The main seasonal limit is clear for 2026–2027: the auberge, motel, and restaurant close for the winter break from October 19, 2026, and are scheduled to return on May 1, 2027. Meals also require advance planning in summer because the restaurant asks for meal reservations at least 24 hours ahead.
