Lady in charge gave our room to someone else so we had to wait for our room. It was also the last day (property was closing for the season) so she initially suggested sharing coffee maker with our other room (we had 2 rooms booked). Balked at this suggestion as i paid for 2 rooms, why should i share amenities? She rushed cleaning the room we eventually got so you can tell it was haphazardly done (we had a what’s supposed to be a white towel turn yellow in the bath). Room was newly renovated though (noce washroom!) but suggest putting a curtain on the bathroom window as they were ground floor rooms (my husband had to reinvent a “curtain” using towels $

The bedding and bathrooms are clean. Shingles missing on roof and room was old and musty. Looked like a leak in the ceiling touched up by paint. Would not be my first choice next time. Needs to be updated. Had a much better room in Baddeck for less money.
