We were originally assigned a poor quality room - not close to what was advertised in the photo and significant cleanliness issues. The person at the front desk immediately "upgraded" us to the renovated room advertised. It was clean, the beds were comfortable. Despite being on a busy road the rooms were quiet. Would stay again.

The motel is a bit remote for Antigonish, but if you have a car it's just maybe a 10-15m drive. Staff was very friendly. Room was well-kept and clean - a bit dated in some ways.... The shower was tiny – so small it was hard to have a shower in there without bumping walls and soap containers. They have a nice little breakfast system where you can order breakfast when you check in and come back and pick it up at a specific time – they have a few simple breakfast options but it worked out well for me. I found the price a bit high considering the time of year, location and quality. Overall, had a pleasant stay.

Check in was all completed via text messaging. Room is nice, clean.
Clean as a whistle, comfortable bed, breakfast included, friendly staff and very egaer to please and to top if off a free up graded room without asking. In addition to the electronic check in process very impressive. I was even contacted prior to arriving with my room number and key code.
Older motel. No noise from other guests when we were there.Well kept place. Owners seem very conscientious. We Didn’t mind picking up breakfast tray and eating in room.

Deadbolt was almosr to fall off the door. Big room. Great befs.
We absolutely loved our stay at Coastal Inn Antigonish and wish we could have stayed another night. Lovely staff, clean room, quiet, great breakfast... stay here!
Room was cozy but packed with all that essentials - appreciated that they had cream cheese and butter stocked in the fridge and jam available for breakfast. Received texts day of arrival with room number and code, as well as a link to preorder breakfast. Thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would consider staying here again if we find ourselves in antigonish in the future
We have stayed here two years in a row. It’s a great option for families. The breakfast is awesome. I love being able to chose what everyone wants ahead of time. Beds are comfortable and the staff is always friendly and helpful
