We were so surprised at the size of the room for the money that we paid, which included 2 bedroom areas, a livingroom/dining area, a kitchenette and beautiful bathroom. The only downfall was the stairs to climb up to the rooms BUT it was worth it when you got up there and seen the view, right on the harbour/boardwalk. The restaurant was excellant, with home cooked breakfasts and meals, we would definately stay there if we return to Nova Scotia!

The owner and staff were unbelievably personable. Mike, the owner was truly a gem. The dockside was an amazing place to stay with great water views and amazing proximity to downtown shopping. The room is extremely clean and spacious and it was such a delight. We loved eating at the restaurant as well. That was certainly a plus. Breakfast with The view and the sunrise and sunsets were incredible. Can't wait to go back again.
