Fortress Inn Louisbourg
If you are planning on seeing anything within Louisbourg, then the location of this motel is ideal, beyond that I can not say anything positive.
It is a stereotypical run-down independent small-town motel where the door is opened with a physical key. The motel is attached to a local bar where the inn manager can be found. Food is available at certain times via that bar. After hours, microwaveable hoggies can be purchased.
The room looks like it is original from the 80s. There is a fridge, microwave and a Keureg but the furniture is spartan. The tub has water stains and the washroom looks just as dated as the rest of the motel. Biggest issue I had was that the thermostat did not seem to want to heat up the room (via baseboard heaters) and in terms of safety, the smoke detector battery compartment was open and empty (pressing test provided no alarms) and the electrical socket plates was not secured to the wall.
This level of comfort during a low season was 100$/night. Not worth it at all given for a few tens of dollars more I can stay at a proper hotel. If I were to do this trip again, I would take the 30 min 1-way drive hit and stay in Sydney instead.
