The person that ran the property was very nice, was there if we needed anything. The only thing that was bad was that we had to wait for hot water to take a shower.

Good breakfast and pleasant staff. The big negative was mouldy smelling carpet that permeated all the common spaces. Fortunately the bedroom had wood flooring not carpet so the atmoshere in the room was plesant

It has an old-world charm that is increasingly hard to find these days with the growing number of standardized accommodations It is ideal for someone looking for a relaxed stay which fits well with the relaxed pace provided by a town such as Pictou The owner is a wonderful lady who is industrious and tries to provide a comfortable stay for her guests. I hope to return again, not only to explore the local area, but the hospitality of the inn

In all fairness, my room was one of the cheapest in the hotel. I found various small items like the plastic tags from new clothes lying freely on the floor when I entered the room for the first time. They were still there when I left a week later. The room floorboards lifted in spots and pinched bare feet as well. I won't be going back there.
