Very clean bathroom. The room was very clean but very tiny.
Pillows smelled bad. It was good that I had brought my own travel pillow.
It was an ok place just to stay overnight in between a long driving trip from PEI to Maine.

We could tell it was newly renovated.
The bathroom had a corner shower and we were really impressed because it had 2 safety handles where there often isn't even one.
A very friendly welcome and a great recommendation for a restaurant!

The room was a bit dated, but absolutely spotless (to my standard - and that is saying something. Not a speck of dust anywhere!), no strong or synthetic smells (great for sensitivities or allergies!) the beds and pillows are VERY comfortable, the location is convenient (there are no taxis, but it is only an approx. 15 minute walk into town - take a flashlight at night and watch out for the deer!) and in a quiet area. We had everything we needed (good blackout curtains too) and it was conveniently laid out. Plenty of parking right in front of our room and they have a really nice central outdoor seating area. The owners are very welcoming and have a wealth of brochures and information for visitors. We can definitely highly recommend and look forward to our next visit!
