Love NOTL

This is a beautiful historical home in a great location. The host Phillip could not have been more welcoming or gracious. I loved the memory foam king bed but my husband did not like it as well. Since these room are remodeled in an old house they are a little odd but beautiful. Breakfast was delivered each morning about 0830. Croissants, fresh fruit, juice and yogurt also some hot egg dish (personally I liked the breakfast sandwich but not the omelette or the other dish). But there was plenty and it was local….great coffee. It was nice. Parking is good and it is so convenient to the downtown area and Lake Ontario. Phillip would help you with anything you might need. It is a quirky but perfectly lovely place to stay when you visit NOTL.

Old Ivy Walk is the perfect place to stay while visiting NOTL. We were able to park our car at the house and walk everywhere. Our host, Phil was a pleasure to get to know. Even before we met he gave recommendations on where to eat, when to buy show tickets, etc. A delicious breakfast was waiting for us each morning. The house is beautifully maintained and very comfortable. We are looking forward to visiting again this summer.
