    This is an amazing place to stay as there is so much history on display. Staff were very pleasant. We could walk to the city and the waterfront so very convenient

    I think the batteries are dead in one of the TV remotes.

    So clean and quaint, friendly staff. Great location. So kind to make a breakfast to go since we had to leave early. Plenty of private parking. Near shops and restaurants.

    All good. Perhaps some of the building history on the website.

    Lovely part of downtown residential history. Why stay in a modern box when you can stay in something that has been part of the town history from early days.

    The receptionist was not to be found except after a few calls and a bit of waiting. BUT we were there off season (beginning of April) and I presume she was the one person cleaning the rooms (suuuper well!) and attending other stuff too...but it did feel...lonely when we went down to the common area and there was noooobody to be seen. I'm sure in the summer it's nice and welcoming. We had access to coffee, tea, milk, creamer, chocolate in the common area. (there was a coffee machine in the room but I'm not comfortable using it because these machines *in general* are not cleaned well so I had my own bias). It is set up for breakfast too but I think that's only offered in season (nice room and tables though!)

    The place was super clean! The bed was comfortable although a little too bouncy so if you're a fidgety sleeper like me, it can be a bit of an issue for the partner. But it was BIGGER bed than expected according to the description (I thought it was max a queen size but actually it was a king size, just a tad bit shorter? But comfy for a 6'2" person too). The decor was charming, old fashioned but I did go for that style on our trip. Location is great. Parking is easy (in the backyard).

    The person working there was nowhere to be found when we first arrived. We were unable to get in and was a little concerned. She did come to the door shortly after our arrival. When we left the inn, there was also no one there, so I left the key on the desk with a note and hoped it was sufficient.

    First rate service by the young lady at check-in. She went above and beyond by explaining where everything was throughout the inn...also we really appreciated the box of chocolates which were left for my husband as I had mentioned in a previous email that it was his birthday. Very nice touch 👌.

    The door handle would not fully catch resulting in the door not locking. Access to the building was however locked allowing only guests and staff to enter with their room key.

    Location was within walking distance to the downtown area.
