This is a cute and unusual little place, conveniently located for Halifax airport. The instructions for self check in are very easy, the room is private and there is a little common living room area overlooking the lake, where you can make coffee at any time. The restaurant downstairs seems to be a very popular spot for locals and I ate a very tasty vegan meal there. I stayed here for two separate one night stays and the first night (a Tuesday), the restaurant was closed, but my second night was a Friday and the noise in the room from the restaurant was quite loud. The noise from the road is also very loud, unless you keep the window closed. There is a very large amount of traffic flowing past here and at times it is very difficult to get in and out of the driveway, which was surprising. I stayed in the Lake William room, which does have a partial view of the lake. The room was clean, but the bed wasn’t super comfortable for me. Overall I would recommend here, especially if you are on a budget, as the price is decent.

There is a very nice restaurant/pub on the main level with great food and service. We arrived for checkin as advised but the self checkin requires an access code that we had not been provided in advance. After a bit of creative research we tracked down the needed code. That should have been advised through Expedia. Otherwise all was good.

The bed was very, very low to the floor, not quite like a mattress on a floor, but very close. Thia made it challenging aa heck to get in and out of bed. This was sold as a bed and breakfast and so our expectations were thar we woild have a reasonable breakfast. What we got was a small basket left in our room that had a muffin, an apple and several sugar-bssed snacks. This was not close enough to being a breakfast, in our opinion. The sounds from the room above us were easily heard in our room and woke us early at about 7 am, which was long before we wished to be awake. We would not stay again at this facility.

Nice spot. Privacy is kind of limited if you get the small room, because there isn’t space in the room to hang out so you end up using the common area. That area is nice, but you’re hanging out with other people potentially. Would be a great place to rent with a group and get both rooms.

The 'Bed" was a mattress in a frame, no box spring, sitting on the floor. It was back breaking. There was a fitted sheet and a word comforter, no top sheet. Pillows were cheap and uncomfortable. The floors had no insulation and sound proofing, and the noise form the upstairs guests was deafening. When I called the 'office' to mention the noise, it went unanswered, and I could clearly hear the phone ringing in the restaurant below our room. I left a voice mail, but still didn't get a call back about the noise . The 'breakfast' was two muffins and two apples in a bowl. Not great for diabetics! There was ZERO customer service. Self check in and then you hope for the best, but should expect the worst.

Our family had a wonderful stay at the Fourth Lock B&B. The Thomas room overall was excellent, from the cleanliness, spaciousness and view of the lake from the balcony being just a few of the highlights. The host was also helpful, checked in with us often and was very responsive to all our needs during our stay. As well, the Fourth Lock restaurant downstairs is wonderful and a first class dining experience with a great vibe. Overall, we highly recommend the Fourth Lock B&B and will definitely be staying here in the future.

We stayed for 3 nights here. It was a lovely stay. The self check in was nice. We enjoyed the common sitting room with games and coffee. In my opinion the breakfast was the only downside. They gave us a new supply everynight which was nice but it wasn't my type of breakfast, an apple an orange, a couple muffins, a couple rice krispie squares, some granola bars and some juice and yogurt in the fridge. If that's your type of breakfast then it's perfect! I would definitely come back though.
