I just celebrated my one-year wedding anniversary at the Inn. The check in staff was very welcoming, the room was clean, quiet, safe and had a good feeling. My difficulty with my stay comes with the food service.. I had an unfortunate time at breakfast. (I’ve worked in restaurants so I have sympathy, however, it could have been handled better). I purchased a room that came with breakfast, which I won’t be doing if I return next year. Essentially, the servers/kitchen forgot our order somehow. We were brought the wrong meal two times, where we had to awkwardly send it back. About 7 or 8 tables arrived after us, were served, ate, and were ready to go. Then - towards the end, a staff member came up to us and said, “I’m sorry they area making your food now and it will be two minutes”. The food came and I was so uncomfortable at that point. The toast had been made in such a rush that it was cold and had unmelted butter sitting on it. After waiting 45 minutes for breakfast this felt pretty sad. No one offered a true (non-deflected) apology, no one offered a discount on the stay, or anything for free in order for the bad service. Kind of lame for a wedding anniversary breakfast! Sorry for the rough review, the hotel is nice and maybe the servers were having a hard day and dealing with some organizational issues. :(

We liked that it was on the water. Our room had been remodeled it was good. Although it wasn't clean the floors were not vacuumed or moped we had no hand soap and there was an empty conditioner bottle in the shower. The complementary breakfast was okay could have been better. The waiters didn't check on us to see if we needed anything and the tables were very sticky and dirty we had to move 3 times to find a clean table. Needless to say we won't be coming back. The older white lady at the front check in counter need a raise she is a very lovely lady. Always has a smile our room keys stopped working half way through our stay and she was so lovely and fixed it right away. She is definitely an employee you need to keep.

Lovely waterfront location in an older, pretty neighbourhood. Could walk to downtown shops and restaurants, the waterfront and boat tour boarding location. Bed was very comfortable. Free made to order breakfast was a nice bonus, served in restaurant with river and waterfront view.

DO NOT STAY HERE! I had a terrible experience with a rude elderly lady at the front desk on the morning of July 22, 2025. We lost our breakfast ticket, and she rudely reminded me that she had given me one the day before. If you want to work with the public, you need to learn about customer service! The rooms are outdated, and the hotel has a foul odor. The restrooms are old and dirty, and the bed linens are in poor condition, with holes in them.

Badly in need of renovation. Very tired looking. No fridge in room. No tea in room (coffee only). No healthy items on the breakfast menu. Why no fresh fruit, cereal, yogurt etc. for those not wanting a heavy cooked breakfast. The only plus is the location. Will not stay there again.

The room was nice, but the bed was terribly hard. It left me with a sore back in the morning. The room itself was clean, however the towels had stains on them, and the shower doors were filthy. Though the rooms had air conditioning, the hallways did not. The breakfast was good, and included in the room price. The food was not buffet style, but we were given a good number of entrees to choose from. Service was quick, but the dining area was not air conditioned, and was unpleasant as it was a very warm day. The staff were friendly and helpful.
