    There was nothing not to like with this place!

    The new owner, Chris, met us at check in and was always around to answer questions. The personal touch is what sets an inn apart from a hotel/motel. This Inn is beautiful…it was fun to imagine what this house used to be like. The breakfast was amazing. Something for everyone. When we booked this inn, we didn’t realize breakfast was included so it was a wonderful surprise. The location was ideal for us. I brought my 25 year old daughter to PEI for a girls weekend and to see a production of Anne and Gilbert at Holland College. It was perfect walking distance. Lots of restaurants and a beautiful park all within walking distance. The room was clean, comfortable and quiet. We will definitely be back!

    All was terrific.

    Beautiful old inn close to Victoria Park. Very quiet. Easy walking distance to Downtown. Very generous host. Chris has a room with tea and coffee and home baked cookies. Cans of soft drink or water $1. Laundry facilities $1. Breakfast a choice of cooked or continental, pastries, fruit. Terrific. Bed was so comfortable. We had a great stay.

    There wasn’t enough hot water which is not uncommon in old buildings but it was frustrating to come home late in the day three days in a row and not have enough hot water for a shower before going to bed.

    The guesthouse is charming and my room was really nice and comfortable. The location of the guesthouse could not have been better as it is in a quiet neighborhood but walking to restaurants and to see the sights only takes a few minutes.

    The only thing was that our room had low water pressure and the water rarely got hot. Warm enough for a shower but worried it would run out (did not). Told the host and he will look into it for the future. As I said, he’s eager to please his guests and is making updates as possible.

    Spacious. Comfortable bed. Lovely services such as laundry, homemade baking at all times of the day, fridge In both your room and in a common guest kitchen where you could also make tea or coffee yourself and a sink where it was easy to fill your water bottles for the day. Breakfasts were good, buffet style. Would have liked cut fruit or berries for cereal but there were whole fruits like bananas and apples and oranges. Brown bread would have been appreciated. Owners are new, competent, quietly friendly, eager to please. Nice location to walk to the water and to the old town and restaurant area.

    Smooth check-in with ample parking in a central location. Our room was clean and comfortable with an extra comfy bed and lovely linens. Our overnight was very quiet which was much appreciated. The continental breakfast is basic but certaibly sufficient. Bonus: a bright sunny dining area for morning coffee.
