"So - overall my stay @ CP was very good - owners/staff Vincent/Jean & fam were great - attentive & attempted to assist wi requests, inquiries, etc. The room was clean, although some minor issue with the shower & the odd time of power/internet going out - hey, it happens in PI. IT was nice to have the breakfast I chose & though their cook was out on holiday, Jean filled in quite well. V/J were interested in improving their facility upon suggesting an improvement/upgrade or 2. I did have one...
