Loved the breakfast. Eggs and sausage with toast and potatoes. I was unhappy that there was no exhaust fan in our bathroom. Also there is laundry but they don’t have change and they don’t sell any laundry soap. So I took dirty clothes home. So sad

This hotel is in serious need of renovation. The location is beautiful overlooking the waterfront but the rooms were old and dated. It was clean enough. I probably wouldn’t choose to stay here again.

It was a beautiful place- I had a view on the Lake and Harbour. The sunset and Sunrise was just spectacular. I like the fact that there was a security gurad near the parking lot so my car was safe and I felt safe when bringing my dog outside. It was very quiet. Loved this stay

Loved its historical significance! Felt like European hotels we’ve stayed before. Would have liked to have more bathroom shelf or counter space for placing toiletries but not a dealbreaker. Will definitely return!

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Given the age of the property, it was in good condition. But, some areas of the room needed painting and there were small amounts of mold in the bathroom. The bed was comfortable. The shower could use some more pressure, but I’m sure that’s a challenge in an older building. My biggest complaint was breakfast. They apparently had just switched over to a new ordering system, so it took 30 minutes to get breakfast and It was cold. I had multiple people try to sell me something in the area outside the motel, but I never felt unsafe.
