A beautiful Gem and prime location!
What a beautiful cottage! The care and warmth that went into this gem is highly apparent as soon as you walk through the door. The decor creates a warm and relaxing ambiance, a beautiful bookcase invites you to just pick a good read and relax! The beds are made beautifully, the bedrooms are so airy and sunny, and oh so comfortable. Bathrooms are immaculate, oh so important in my opinion! Everything you need for a home away from home! We were delighted with The Barbara, we would highly recommend a stay, we give it a 5 Star ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Pretty Good but Expensive
The location was fine. We could easily ride bikes to the theatre and around town. The linens were clean. We expected more for the price and have made suggestions to the manager.

Charming home in old town
This cottage is exactly as marketed. Cozy, neat, tidy, excellent location. Easy walk to the mouth of the Niagara River. Just a few short blocks to the downtown. We had an amazing time and would stay here again thank you.

The house is good and clean but the outside is really not well maintained. I thought it was a shame at $1,000 a night!
