Nice sweet stay! Belle nuitée!

We found it crowed with eclectic objects but it’s sweet and clean. Lots of cats for cat lovers! Nice environment! A Mexican worker made our stay more enjoyable! On a trouvé qu’il y avait beaucoup d’objets éclectiques, mais quand même bien! Bel environnement et pour les amateurs de chats, vous serez servis :) Une employée Mexicaine a agrémenté notre séjour!

Though we were the only English speakers in residence the owner was bilingual enough to communicate. Very quaint place in rural area. Breakfast made daily by owner and it was a treat. Definitely would go back.

The owner of the property said that she never received any booking request from expedia. So late in the night, we, a family with a 5 year old and a 66 year old were left stranded. After over 2 hours of frantic calling and hunting for hotels in 2 different towns, almost giving up, we luckily got a room in a much expensive hotel after midnight. I want not only a refund, but also compensation for the extra stress and unsafe conditions from expedia. What's the point of receiving an email with wordings such as "you don't have to call the hotel to confirm your booking" when the hotel owner says she never received any booking request. What's the point of being an Expedia "member" when there is not even a phone number to reach a call center employee? Really horrific experience.

Catherine nous a accueillis chaleureusement dans cette belle auberge pleine d'histoire. La bâtisse et la déco sont très belles et la chambre très confortable. Nous avons également apprécié le petit déjeuner basé sur un choix de crêpes. L'endroit est très paisible et l'atmosphère est relaxante, on se sent bien. Il y a également des animaux, chats et chien à l'intérieur et les poulettes et canards dehors. L'auberge est située à plusieurs kilomètres de la baie Saint Paul dans un endroit isolé, très calme.
