The room floor was not clean. My feet were black walking across the bathroom floor, had to ask for coffee, tea, sugar, shampoo, and towels. The bottom of one chair was all falling apart, was not impressed with the room at all. When we arrived, I told them that I had two small dogs 7 1/2 pounds each And told this was OK. We were out pretty well all day long and the dogs were only there at night to sleep when we walked them. We totally cleaned everything up. Upon leaving The Owner/manager stopped my car and told me that I would have to pay for the dogs. This was not told to me at the beginning They said the dogs were fine. Upon receiving my credit card bill he has charged me. I feel they are not honest people and would never recommend anybody to the spot. Very disappointed with my booking through Expedia as they should be aware of how these dishonest people treat others.

Owner was extremely accommodating and understanding with our late check in. He upgraded our room to make our room easier to find if he was unavailable when we arrived. Location was very convenient to catch the ferry to Digby. The room suited our needs- close to the ferry for early departure the following morning.

While the manager was friendly, the room was pathetic. Not only very small, but in serious need of a major overhaul. From doors to shower stall to window and curtains, toilet, walls, and more, the room we were in, #7, should not be rented out in its current condition.

It was advertised and a quaint little roadside inn, but when we got there it was dilapidated and unkempt. Looked more like a hostel type establishment. The owner was nice but we only stayed one night because it was sketchy and I didn’t feel safe.

The room we were given reeked of cat urine and there was a hornet’s nest right by the door - my husband was stung. We asked for another room, we’re given one, but for a “renovated room” is was very low class.
