The view of the harbour was great. Room was spacious and clean. Breakfast was also very good. Really liked the property and our stay. Too bad the inn doesn't have dedicated parking.
The view was superlative, the Inn is central to the community, the staff is friendly, efficient and there's a charm and liveliness to the entire setting.
Our room was a bit dated but not a big deal at all. It was very clean and great view of Front Harbour of Lunenburg. Had a great breakfast and supper at the restaurant downstairs with friendly and helpful staff.
This was a great spot to stay. Large, spacious and clean. The view was fantastic and the large windows let in all of the sun.
It was very authentic and we loved the decor.
Amazing individuals, super understanding, respectful and just overall awesome. Highly reccomend for nova scotian hospitality!

The view of the harbour from our room was great and the location to restaurants etc was very good. On street parking was hard to find. Room was very dated which I sort of expected. Linens need to be replaced and washed more effectively and area carpet was stained and tired.
Breakfast at the restaurant was good and reasonably priced.
Room came equipped with milk and creamers in the fridge as well as real glasses and mugs instead of paper and plastic. Nice touch.
Had one of the "Crow" suites, was awesome view, room was spacious,clean, and comfortable. We were off season so most amenities in the area were closed. The restaurant in the hotel was open and food was good. I would stay here again, in a flash.
