Close to downtown - the main section where many shops and restaurants are located (Rehoboth Ave). Very clean and staff very pleasant. Wished there was a tub, but they are rare these days. LOVED the french doors that opened to the balcony with the tall Adirondack style beach chairs.

Thoroughly enjoyed my stay at the Canal side Inn. So did my furry companion Frankie, who was well greeted by the owners and other pets alike. Guests were equally friendly, those with 2 feet. The room was lovely for a single traveler and dog. It was especially nice being in a residential neighborhood with the canal right outside the doorstep, lovely scenery, easy walking distance to Rehoboth Beach Perfect four-day vacation to clear the mind with easy access to all that you would want in Rehobeth.

Room was clean and comfortable on a very quiet street but walking distance to coffee and restaurants. Great place to walk the dog. Only downside was that room had hard floors with no rugs so sound really traveled. I could hear every coming and going in the hallway.

Amazing stay, wonderful staff. Traveled with our dog and it was a short getaway trip as a couple. We enjoyed our time and beach was a short drive. Walking distance to breakfast and coffee restaurants. Did a lot of shopping but we drive to shop to have our car for storing stuff but you could walk to some shops.

Pet friendly, small and very easy. Glad I could go directly to the room without waiting due to having dogs. Wish rooms had a little more back support (headboard, pillows), lighting/AC wasn't working well and hot tub did break but staff was great in accommodating as best they could. Love how pet friendly they are, dogs had an amazing time, best dog friendly hotel I've been to (even option for a large quiet basement suite if your pup is reactive). It is also a great walk to the beach or to take a bike (dogs are allowed on the boardwalk/beach from late September to early May) but even just the trails and dog friendly restaurants it is worth a stay if you have furry friends!
