Our room was clean and comfortable,. The bedding was clean. The bathroom was clean and spacious. We found unfortunately the coffee was lukewarm, and the breakfast was served to us cold. We were also uncomfortable with the community jar of peanut butter. Cross contamination was a big concern for us.

The young man looking after the property could not cook or clean, and appeared to be using / on his phone to learn how to cook scrambled eggs. The kitchen was a disaster zone with little or no food hygiene / protection evident. The guest fridge contained numerous food stains and had clearly not been cleaned for a significant time. The cream jug had also not been cleaned and was rimmed with soured cream build up. Breakfast tables were bare with no attempt to lay up place setting. Food hygiene standards are not being practiced at this bed & breakfast. The room was clean but tired. I do not recommend this establishment.

The rooms were okay. The bed was in need of replacement. There is no elevator and the stairs are very narrow. The breakfast was terrible, with every effort to limit costs (half rashers, ice in the OJ, and hot chocolate that was tasteless).

Nice size room. Old home and nice property with lots of potential. By the River while true you don’t actually see the River because of trees. I was hoping for a more scenic experience. Great location to downtown.

Unfortunately a lack of staff, 1 person (Danielle) was just not able to manage 14 guests, breakfast was not served as advertised or at all to some guests.outside backyard is not maintained at all I assume they can get away with this in a small town like Fredericton and upon checking the home was empty and dark, nobody answerd rhe the door because she was busy still cleaning romms at 3pm in the afternoon. The property has potential but is just mismanaged..Good luck !!

The property had no sign out front that says B and B.Its on a busy street and beside a cemetery.my initial impression upon driving up was not great as the outside needs some TLC.The inside was clean and our room was quite large.The bed was ok,but the pillows were terrible.The lady running it was doing everything by herself I believe.Cleaning the rooms, cooking breakfast and checking people in.She was definitely working hard.

Beautiful b&b on the St John river

The hosts were friendly and welcoming. The Executive suite was beautiful with a large bay window with adjoining ensuite bathroom and balcony overlooking the front of the house. Everything was very clean. The bed was very comfortable. There were several breakfast options that you could choose from. Had a wonderful stay and would stay again.
