Great location. Very walkable to all downtown restaurants and harbour sites. Easy bus ride with one transfer from the airport for $4.75. Standard continental breakfast to get your day started. Good coffee! Rooms are basic but clean and all you need. Friendly staff.

7:45 am is a little late for the continental breakfast. Maybe if coffee was available for those that have to leave early. I was able to park on the street with no difficulty, I can see that parking would be an issue when the winter ban is on.

This place is great, would stay again. Very cozy, nice continental breakfast with protein and healthy-ish options. Great coffee in the room. Tv worked easily and had channels. 2 clarifications included as Expedia doesn’t always do a great job reporting on these: laundry can only be done between 6-8 pm and there is not really accesses to a microwave and fridge. There was a working and large mini fridge in the room.

I am conflicted on how to review the hotel, because the location was great and the staff was friendly. However there was a mouse in our room, and we left a small electronic device by accident and knew exactly where we left it, but it was taken by someone at the hotel.

No complaints, this property met my expectations. Room was clean and comfortable. The continental breakfast was more than enough to start the day. I left the property feeling that it was an opportunity missed. It is an lovely Victorian house, which if it had been dressed according to the period it was built would have been fabulous

The location is great and our room was clean but it was very hot in our room and no way to control the temperature other than opening the window which we didnt want to do all night. The staff are friendly and the breakfast was okay.
