The Inn is definitely showing its age Check in was “1st name , here’s your key and it’s on the 1st floor Walked in and smell perfume sprayed to cover up must The bed frame was on blocks and you still sloped lower towards the headboard The restaurant did have charm, I’d say the food was as excellent and priced well I am sad to say I wouldn’t be staying there again , however I’d eat there in a heartbeat

It looked quaint on website but was actually very old and run down, worst beds we encountered on three week Maritime Road trip. The guy when we checked in was not friendly and it was like we were bothering him when we checked in. Would never recommend this place to anyone

Pass on this one

I wouldn’t recommend a stay here. The first room I was offered had a 2 foot long spread of black mould on the bathroom wall and ceiling. The second room was in better condition, but the mattress was definitely older than me. I wish the duvet insert had a cover on it or at least a sheet on top of it, as many hotels now do. Only one lamp worked so the room was very dark. The place looks cute and historic in photos, but feels grimy and run down. There is a nice outdoor area that looks out onto the water. I spent a lot of time here avoiding my room.

Ideally located for the visit. Friendly staff, very have accommodating. Dining was enjoyable, very good meals and service, Building is old but well maintained. External noise (other rooms, walkways etc) was a bit of a distraction . Room was comfortable but did not have a coat rack. TV was difficult to operate (two controls).

Disappointed with Quality

Easy parking. Central to downtown. Lovely lawn overlooking the Bay. Nice restaurant. But don't stay in the side building, with only outside stairs to walk up with luggage. The rooms are NOTHING like those pictured. More like a 1 star hotel/motel. Run down, old spring mattress. Pillows too high. Very dark room. Mold in bathroom around the bath. But awesome water pressure. Broken toilet. Ask to stay in the main building, where I assume those pictures are from. Should have realized with the low price, you get what you pay for.

I love the staff and they are so nice but the rooms aren't very clean and my pillow cases had hair all over them when I called them they did come and change them but behind night stands and tv stand and bed there is loads of dirt not sure who is doing the cleaning but they should have a talk to them.

Well situated and good for discovering the area. Needs a bit of an upgrade, parts were looking tired. Doesn't live up to its history (we were in the annexe rooms, maybe the main rooms do). Brunch only available at the weekend.........doesn't say this on the website - please update this. Tiniest bath towels of our entire trip........ please get towels that actually cover. Restaurant was very good and the staff in there were great.
