Two historic homes have been combined with a beautiful, sunny addition that flawlessly links the two homes. The property is on a hill, accessed by a narrow driveway with parking and the guest entrance in back. We were warmly greeted upon our arrival, given room keys, dinner suggestions and an offer to help carry in our luggage. Everything inside is perfectly maintained. You will see model ships and historic photos in the common areas. Our room on the 2nd floor was actually the 3rd floor because the reception area was up one flight of stairs. Our room had a double bed, a twin bed, two large windows overlooking the front of the house, a desk, two chairs, a small ensuite bathroom, two robes in the closet and plenty of good lighting. Breakfast with French toast, lots of fresh fruit, granola, yogurt and juice was served in a lovely dining area. We are in our early 70s and had no problem navigating the stairs with our luggage. People challenged by climbing stairs may not find this place suitable.

We had a premium suite and it was very nice and quite large however, in such a large room, a king size bed would have been preferred and as opposed to a queen and perhaps a new mattress should be thought of

We loved almost everything about our experience there except for two things: I found a shower to be rather dangerous looking for a place to hold on. Second thing the bed we are used to at least a queen size bed, and it was only a double bed so we had a great deal of difficulty in sleeping. Also, the bed was a little soft for our comfort.

This was our second time at this B & B, and we're glad to be back. We stayed in St. John on our way from Vermont to PEI, and we did the same thing on our return trip. While the outside of this property could use some TLC in the paint department, the inside of this historic building is immaculate and filled with historic charm. Just be aware that you need to go up a flight of stairs to reach the lobby level. BTW, there's always free, fresh coffee available (KEURIG), as well as water. Our room (number 1), had a double and a single bed and a private bathroom with a charming tub. It's by no means a huge room, but all we needed was a place to shower and sleep. The mattresses are excellent, and the bedding is soft. The B & B itself is an easy, ten-minute drive from uptown St. John where all the restaurants are. Speaking of food, the breakfast that's prepared in front of you at this B & B was once again out of this world and based on fresh ingredients. The chef is well-traveled, and happy to share his experiences with you. My wife can have no gluten at all, and this place is very safe for people suffering from Celiacs disease! Next year we're going to Cape Breton, and we'll be sure to stay at this B & B again. We can't recommend it enough!

We loved our stay at this location. This is a place with personality and some history. The room was clean, the beds were soft, and fresh coffee was waiting for us in the lobby. We had room number 1, next to a busy street which was unfortunate. Traffic almost never stopped and since it was a warm night, it was our choice to keep the window open (even though the room had a fan). The breakfast in the morning was exceptional, and the chef/owner was extremely personable. I already look forward to our next stay at this B&B which is only in a few days. Highly recommended!
