I enjoyed the property. My only recommendation is to put a nightlight in Room 1C bathroom. Once I turned off the lights in the bedroom, it was very dark.

Disliked: Staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The property is centrally located and quiet (Pictou is a very small place). There was no staff to welcome us (an envelope was taped on the door with our room key in it!) nor was there any information about restaurants, attractions in the area, etc Room and bathroom were tired (peeling paint, stained bathtub), the ac was terribly noisy and there was no way to adjust it…and finally, no bar, no restaurant, no breakfast…
