We loved the walkable location in downtown Charlottetown. The property and room was very clean, our bed was great. Deluxe breakfast was good, warm food was repetitive and lacked variety. Would I stay again? Yes!

Staff is very friendly, the room was clean and the bed was comfortable. Very close to the waterfront and lots of great restaurants. Breakfast was included. The outside of the hotel would need some TLC. But overall I would stay there again.

This is an inn with outside access only unless you book a suite but yet you call it a hotel. I had to carry my suitcase up 2 floors outside, with 1 floor being inside. Dealing with an injury to my spine and did not expect to have to do that. Beds were good, room was clean, but the walk to the room on the outside balcony was disgusting. Outdoor carpet was 30 years old, or at least it looked that way. Bathroom - the door just made it past the toilet. Shower was nice but very dated. Odd sink placement in the bathroom made it awkward. This place needs to advertise its rooms better. 10 days on the east coast, stayed at golf resorts, classic old hotels, and this was the most expensive stay. 450$ for the most disappointing stay of our trip. It was 100 more than our other 5 hotels. Again, this is not a hotel.

We went for our Anniversary, the staff wished us well and put out some champagne, fresh flowers and treats. We appreciated this very much. The only thing i found lackingvwas the chairs in the room seemed very old and outdated compared to the rest of the decor. Other than that, everything was great!!

Right location, so-so service!

Other than the location this place has little to offer! General areas are somewhat dated and worn out with time. Lots of stairs and no elevator. Breakfast was good but the lack of utensils and space to move around in the dining room made you feel uncomfortable.
