A quaint Inn that offers the best service and comfortable rooms. A little run down, but the old bookcase with glass doors, at the landing of the stairs, makes up for any cosmetic issues. Sheets are crisp and clean. Workers smiling and willing to go above and beyond. This will be my go-to “home” when visiting Halifax.

It is quaint in a nice way. Absolutely beautiful views. Staff were lovely . I was there on business & appreciated the quiet. Be aware it is older so plug ins are limited. One frustration - which honestly sounds ridiculous- is the tv channels . I am Canadian & was hoping to watch a CFl game but there was no TSN , yet this Canadian hotel had 7 NFl stations . Not cool! On a more positive note - they email you to let you know there are no elevators . I responded with a specific concern & they addressed it . Excellent customer service
