Room was clean and comfortable, complimentary water and coffee in main lobby. Lots of good restaurants in the area. Hallways and common areas could use a good cleaning / paint , replacement of carpets.

Nice, quaint hotel.

Nice hotel and great location. Staff were friendly and helpful. Parking was difficult to find though. Conditioner should be available besides just shampoo.

Disliked: Amenities
The carpet throughout the place was badly stained- hallway, stairs, lounge and room. Bed was acceptable. They did help with parking, since there is not lot for the inn. Some kind of equipment caused the floor to actually vibrate, but it did stop by 10P, then quiet.

The owner was lovely and this older building has been kept up beautifully. My only suggestions is to perhaps replace the mattress in our room as it wasn’t very comfortable . I would definitely recommend this place and the location was perfect for what we wanted.

Great location but no parking provided and on street paid parking is the only option during the daytime. Room was adequate but very hard mattress, no microwave, tiny bathroom and tired decor.

The very first picture that they show for this property on Expedia is one right on the water. What that photo is, is not the hotel and for an unseasoned traveller like myself, I didn’t know it wasn’t the hotel or it’s property. I didn’t realize that the property itself was much further. And I paid for a waterfront view, thinking it was an actual waterfront view, but what I got was a sliver of waterfront view that was in between two buildings that you could barely see the waterfront and it was behind a bunch of trucks that were parked there because it’s a parking and loading area. The hotel was not worth the money. I could’ve stayed in much better places in Lunenburg and paid less. The owners are very nice. The amenities are all old and I couldn’t even find an ice machine. I would never stay there again.
