Lincoln Inn Fredericton

“As far as Motels go, this is one of the better ones.”

Easy location to find, roadside motel, on the Southside of Fredricton, if your from the area or lived there being on the Southside is generally considered "safer". Don't let yourself be put off by the appearance, you'll be fine... The atmosphere is good, cozy electric fireplace in the room not to bright in the main area soft yellow lights, bright whites in the bathroom where you need it, smart TV in the room on the fireplace so your able to cast from your phone to TV or just connect to Netflix using the TV itself, just be sure to log out before leaving, I've been in some nice hotels that are still behind on putting in smart TVs so clients can make the most of their stay on rainy days orbdown time, im looking at you Travelodge 😉. The room layout was good bed on one side of the room and the bathroom on the opposite far side, rooms are connected from the bathroom side so thats a plus its a motel afterall. I don't think I need to explain the importance of room layout when it comes to motels unless you were sheltered or raised in a bubble in which case you should probably stay in a motel at least once in your lifetime, it is an experience to be had at least once, but with this layout even if your there with kids, during the age they question everything, what's that, is someone hurt etc, its fine they probably won't hear a thing and even if they do? Ya know, just pivot....conversation opportunities can be had, it's all education...you'll be fine... Staff was amazing, the grounds man there was back and fourth outside if your garbage got full or you ordered food, bag it up, put it outside the door and it'll dissappear eventually. As for safety, the doors autolock, you get a room key and if you forget it inside your locked out, there is also a deadbolt on the steel door, and a reinforced frame. The value was more then fair considering the weekend we were there with the biggest provincial volleyball tournament in the province and the annual tattoo expo the same weekend, hotels were averaging $1200 for 2 nights, we got 2 nights for $450, so great on that👍. Staff were amazing, I originally booked through booking app, we were originally 6 guests but at the last minute after free cancelation lapsed we went from 6 to 4, and were reserved for 2 rooms at $650 for 2 nights still not bad considering the busy weekend, but we didn't need the additional room, the clerk advised me to request free cancelation on the entire reservation, reworked the booking to 1 room for 2 nights at $450, and refunded the previous booking saving me 200, so that's gas, and I greatly appreciate being able to resolve that, as the payment had already been processed, very friendly and understanding. My only issue was that there was no mini coffee maker in the room and the breakfast bar only opened at 8, so if you're up early and want that first coffee cause you NEED IT to function, then your out of luck and your option is to just get in the car and drive to the nearest coffee spot otherwise wait until 8 and go get you some...but either way, you need to leave the room, so having a coffee maker in the room is the one thing that is needed. Aside from that, you good, keep in mind it's a motel and not a hotel...but I been to many place and stayed in some pretty sketchy areas, this was not one of them. I felt safe, family felt safe, there was no noise aside from the outside chatter which is normal in a motel setting but nothing after midnight or once I was asleep, if you have common sense, keep to yourself, and mind your buisness, unless it's a serious issue, you'll be fine. I would stay here again.
