The water was lukewarm, the heating and laundromat were not worked and the blanket was too thin, so it was cold when I slept. Anyway, it’s bearable for the environment, but it's a pity that the strong smell of detergent on the blanket is so full that my head hurts.

Clean. Conveniently located close to Anne of Green Gables house. Very dated decor. Pool not operational. Breakfast is only included for Inn guests, not the cottages. Info about breakfast was unclear on the website. Reception staff was not very welcoming. We had a problem with our room (broken door knob) and were made to feel like we were inconveniencing them with our request.
