The Spotlight on Guest Inn Motel

Simple Comforts Just Minutes from Trenton's Music and Waterfront Vibes

Modern it’s not—but Guest Inn Motel delivers classic, no-frills comfort in a location that’s hard to beat. Just a few minutes’ walk from Lake Ontario and close to downtown Trenton, this budget-friendly motel offers an old-school vibe with colorful décor and practical amenities. With free Wi-Fi, in-room microwaves and fridges, and a seasonal ice cream shop, it’s a cozy base for concert-goers looking to stay near the action without overpaying.

Why Concert-goers love it

What makes this place great for music lovers? For starters, it’s a quick drive or cab ride to local venues and just a short walk to Centennial Park—home to occasional live events. The 24-hour reception is a bonus for late-night arrivals, and you won’t have to worry about parking or transit logistics. While it’s not soundproofed like a luxury hotel, the area is generally quiet enough to wind down after a show.

Who this Hotel is great for

  • Groups of friends looking for a low-cost crash pad
  • Solo travelers checking off a concert bucket list
  • Couples wanting a chill weekend near the water
  • Fans needing a quiet place to recharge away from the crowds
  • Budget-conscious music fans who prefer to spend on tickets, not lodging

Food and Drink Options

While the motel doesn’t offer full dining, each room comes with a microwave and fridge—perfect for late-night leftovers. There’s also a charming seasonal ice cream shop on-site, and several casual restaurants and coffee shops are within walking distance. Grab something easy for breakfast or enjoy a lakeside bite after the show.

Nightlife Options

The motel itself is quiet, but you’re not far from local bars and low-key lounges in downtown Trenton. For something livelier, a quick drive will take you to spots with live music and local brews. If you’re looking for a more relaxed nightcap, the terrace area is a pleasant place to unwind.

What People Say

Guests consistently mention the friendly staff, clean rooms, and great value for the price. Reviewers appreciate the motel’s proximity to the lake, the peaceful atmosphere, and the reliable Wi-Fi. Many say it’s a solid choice for a short stay or overnight trip tied to a concert or event.

Areas for Improvement

This isn’t a luxury spot—some guests note the decor is dated and the walls a bit thin. If you're a light sleeper, pack earplugs. There’s no on-site restaurant or bar, so food and drinks will require a short walk or drive. But for the price? Most visitors are more than satisfied.

The Bottom Line

If you're chasing live music in Trenton and need a simple, wallet-friendly place to crash, Guest Inn Motel gets the job done without fuss.

Good value for a place...

Liked: The staff were friendly, and were good at answering my questions. Excellent location, within walking distance to several restaurants nearby. It was easy to check in, good parking, and good lighting in the parking lot. The beds were made with genuine sewn quilts - what a nice way to welcome guests while celebrating the local crafting that’s well known in this area. An excellent price value.
Disliked: The wifi was just a bit slow the night we were there, but that could have been a server issue. There may have been a tiny bit of dust on the baseboards, but certainly not worth complaining about when everything else was clean and tidy.

Motel was great. Booking.com platform...

Liked: I was very skeptical based on previous reviews and the price, but it really surprised me. I'm not sure if it's different management or they've taken previous reviews seriously and rectified them, but it was surprisingly very clean and comfortable. I'm a professional airbnb cleaner so my expectations of cleanliness are high and I know where to look that most don't to assess cleanliness but it was very clean! I didn't end up staying at no fault of the motel. I just booked it in case I drank at the concert I was going to and I didn't drink so I decided to go home.
Disliked: The only thing I didn't like was the fault of the booking.com platform and not the motel. When I booked it, I searched for nearby accommodations by the venue I was attending so I could take a local cab and have a place to stay in case I drank. Booking.com said it was 3.5km away from the venue. It ended up being 42 minute drive away so it wasn't logical to take a cab and therefore I couldn't drink and didn't need the room. Because of booking.com misinformation, I paid $172 for a motel I could not use for my intended purpose and had to change my evening's plans. This wasn't the hotel's fault. It was solely the fault of this platform and although I've been using it regularly, this isn't the first misinformation I have received and therefore will no longer be using it.

A place to sleep

Liked: It was a room
Disliked: The air conditioner could work properly and shut down when it cool the room. There were no idea on what channels were on the TV. You had toi use the bibical method "seek and you shall find"

Good

Liked: Older worn facility, very clean and comfortable. Owner was an older man who had interesting travels to share. A mistake was made on our billing. He caught it and called to rectify immediately.
Disliked: Facility does need some TLC.
