We had such a relaxing time at this inn. We wanted to upgrade to a family suite to be able to cook and relax with our new puppy and they accommodated Us. They also are very pet friendly and the staff is amazing. Walkable to the cutest little shops and restaurants. Plus the water view was amazing.

The hotel was not well kept and a lot of things were dirty. Our door was even a bit damaged, as if it was kicked in at some point.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities
The bed wasnt very comfortable and the ac didnt give cold air. Also didnt like having to leave a deposit for the room on my debit considering I had paid all in advance. The staff were very nice and friendly though. Basic motel for a quick night sleep and not too expensive. Would stay again if they upgraded their mattresses

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities
The room was clean and tidy, and the air conditioning worked well - essential given the heat wave we drove into in the Maritimes. Bed was comfortable and the shower had decent pressure. The morning breakfast was simple but a good start to the day. Not fancy but a solid low cost option for the budget traveler. As for the location, it's a 10 minute drive to the Fort, and (if you need it) a laundromat just up the road. We didn't have too many interactions with the staff but they were always friendly and helpful.
