Nice size room. Old home and nice property with lots of potential. By the River while true you don’t actually see the River because of trees. I was hoping for a more scenic experience. Great location to downtown.

Unfortunately a lack of staff, 1 person (Danielle) was just not able to manage 14 guests, breakfast was not served as advertised or at all to some guests.outside backyard is not maintained at all I assume they can get away with this in a small town like Fredericton and upon checking the home was empty and dark, nobody answerd rhe the door because she was busy still cleaning romms at 3pm in the afternoon. The property has potential but is just mismanaged..Good luck !!

The property had no sign out front that says B and B.Its on a busy street and beside a cemetery.my initial impression upon driving up was not great as the outside needs some TLC.The inside was clean and our room was quite large.The bed was ok,but the pillows were terrible.The lady running it was doing everything by herself I believe.Cleaning the rooms, cooking breakfast and checking people in.She was definitely working hard.

Beautiful b&b on the St John river

The hosts were friendly and welcoming. The Executive suite was beautiful with a large bay window with adjoining ensuite bathroom and balcony overlooking the front of the house. Everything was very clean. The bed was very comfortable. There were several breakfast options that you could choose from. Had a wonderful stay and would stay again.

Nice hostess

Beautiful old house but would be a warmer stay during the months outside winter. The hostess, Danielle, was excellent and helped us stay warm. Cancellations cannot be made after 72 hours before check-in. Is rather restrictive. We departed 1 day early, because it was too cold to downhill ski. Even though we departed at 9am, 1 day early, we had to pay for the not-used departure day. In hindsight, we should have stayed at a hotel. We would have not lost the $$
