The hosts were warm and welcoming and very helpful. We felt more like guests than visitors. The breakfast was ample and delicious—a far cry from your standard “breakfast included “ hotel. The architecture of the building itself was beautiful and the hosts knew the history well. We had a lovely stay and would absolutely recommend this property.

I did not enjoy my stay there, the Host Lane, was not friendly at all, check in was at 3, I arrived by taxi at 2:52, had to phone her to let me in as door was locked, she sounded annoyed by that and told me that she was still doing housecleaning and would let me in at 3!!! She let me in about 2;55 but she seemed annoyed by it, never smiled.. was in a big rush for me to pay my bill, the only information she gave me was that breakfast was at 8:30 or 9,and which time did i want, did i have any food allergys, and where to put the keys when i left. The outside of building is in bad need of repair; the so called garden area is full of weeds and neglect, inside the furniture is old and worn and dirty . There is no ice machine and she seemed annoyed when i asked for some. I never felt welcome there at all, and I was there for 4 days. It was a wierd experience and I would never stay there again and will not recommend it either.

A grand old house. We felt we were transported back into an earlier age, which was a very pleasant experience. Our rooms were spacious, warm and inviting. Breakfast was, as noted elsewhere, great. This place would earn a higher rating if more attention was paid to maintenance of the small things...for example towel bars and bathroom shelving that were hanging by a thread from the wall. They became unusable. Elsewhere, a little paint would go a long way. Still...we felt welcomed by the owners and wish them well in a tough business.

The hot, home-cooked breakfast with fresh fruit is wonderful! Staff is helpful and friendly. Shops are approximately 1 mile walking distance, and there is a bus that goes to the mall down the block. Within walking distance of the first nations footpath, Bay of Fundy, restaurants.

The breakfast here was nothing short of amazing. The dining area is beautiful. The staff were friendly and professional. The reception area is clean and bright with beautiful antiques but there is where it ended. In room 4 the bed was squeaky and old, the rug was dirty and the woodwork was badly chipped. The sink cabinet in the bathroom was bare wood and the furniture in the room was badly scratched. This is a beautiful inn but they need to start renovating the rooms if they expect a 4.5 rating to continue.

Breakfast was amazing, prepared in the dining area by the host while he chatted with guests. They even provided a to-go breakfast when we left early on the ferry. The access to the house from the street is easy to miss, and the outside looks a bit shabby but don’t be put off. Inside is lovely with common areas to sit, read, and visit. The furnishings and decor are suited to another time, adding to the feeling of history. The widows walk is a nice touch, and the outdoor chairs overlooking the harbour were well used by guests. The room itself was large and comfortable though the claw foot tub was quite small. We enjoyed 2 nights while we explored the city, and were quite happy with the experience. Lots of resources (local restaurant menus, guidebooks, etc) were available.

This is a lovely older property in a great location on a hill overlooking St. John. It is convenient for the reversing tides and Uptown St. John. The proprietors are very friendly - Lane told us about the restaurant by the reversing falls which was fun - the husband of the two cooks the excellent breakfast. He was very helpful to us in planning our trip up the New Brunswick Coast - suggesting the sea caves and Fundy Trail which we did not know about. Just one word of caution- the stairs are a little tricky for an older person - they were fine for us but I can see that they could be difficult for someone who is not in great walking condition. Overall, excellent stay.

Two historic homes have been combined with a beautiful, sunny addition that flawlessly links the two homes. The property is on a hill, accessed by a narrow driveway with parking and the guest entrance in back. We were warmly greeted upon our arrival, given room keys, dinner suggestions and an offer to help carry in our luggage. Everything inside is perfectly maintained. You will see model ships and historic photos in the common areas. Our room on the 2nd floor was actually the 3rd floor because the reception area was up one flight of stairs. Our room had a double bed, a twin bed, two large windows overlooking the front of the house, a desk, two chairs, a small ensuite bathroom, two robes in the closet and plenty of good lighting. Breakfast with French toast, lots of fresh fruit, granola, yogurt and juice was served in a lovely dining area. We are in our early 70s and had no problem navigating the stairs with our luggage. People challenged by climbing stairs may not find this place suitable.
