Great view. Great staff. Basic accommodation
Ok this place is amazing in its location and view of the locks. We rented bicycles (not from the hotel but we had them delivered to the hotel.) and rode for one of the days we were here. Want to see freighters and sailboats and Viking Cruise ships gi straight by your hotel room wind ? This is am the place to stay. Family run business. Very basic accommodations. No microwave. But a mini fridge. The A/C (a window unit mounted by the door actually) was running continuously and some might find that annoying and loud. But we appreciated the white noise. And we could have turned it off I suppose. For the money and the view and the staff and realizing that it isn’t the Ritz it was a fantastic place. Would stay there again !!

We had a great room on the 3rd floor overlooking Lock #7. We watched 2 large ships pass through the lock. Our room had a balcony with a table and 2 chairs. The room was clean and spacious. We would stay there again for sure.

It was so unique being able to watch the ships passing through the lock. It was nice that the inn was away from the hustle and bustle and noise of the main attractions, but still just an easy 15 - 20 minute drive away. The facility itself is older, but very, very clean, and the staff was super friendly and helpful. It was in the 90's while we were there, and we read a prior review about the cold air from the air conditioner not filling the entire room, so we brought a small fan with us and that worked out great. We have already booked a return trip for the fall months.

A pleasant if not luxurious room but comfortable and with a table and chairs! So you can eat and play board games without perching precariously on the bed. And the boats go by. Staff and owner are really nice and so accommodating. We love this place.

Great view of Lock Seven and boats using the lock. Nice balcony to sit on to watch these ships transit the lock. Room was clean and had comfortable chairs and a table to use. Beds could be a little more plush but all in all I had a good sleep.

We chose this property as it was reasonably close to Welland Flatwater centre to do a triathlon the following day. The room was clean, beds were comfortable, and having a balcony was a bonus. We enjoyed watching the freighter boats come through the locks. It was easy access to restaurants up the road. (Pho 18)
