Very clean room with okay bed, great shower and wifi. Only 3 stars because the room was sweltering hot. They really need to install air conditioning. We've stayed here before with the same issue and will stay elsewhere next time. Also, the towel rack in the bathroom is missing and the vanity mirror is suitable only for very short people. Having said that, the staff is very friendly and helpful, the Keurig works well and having a top rated restaurant downstairs is super.

There is no AC, you can open the windows but expect to be woken by early morning traffic. Restaurant was really good. Location and view, spectacular. Full view of Bluenose while you are sweating out the night. Very limited breakfast options in town.

Located right in the heart of Lunenberg. No a/c was a bit of a let down, as it was pretty hot the day we were there. It is a good thing we weren’t there on a +30 day. It was only one night however, so it was manageable.

This room was such a nice surprise. It had a partial kitchen, which I didn’t use (surrounding restaurants around are amazing, but is a great option to have) and the upstairs bedroom and bathroom were wonderful. The bed was so soft and comfortable plus the bathroom had a jacuzzi tub and shower. I used the jacuzzi tub twice, such a wonderful surprise. I had a small window with a view of the bay, with a nice seating area as well. Another highlight, no keys needed, there was a code for the front door and the room—wonderfully easy. There are stairs required, so keep that in mind, but if stairs aren’t an issue, this property is in the heart of everything and a wonderful stay.

Property was clean at first site. Once you started to looked around there was dust on the coffee pot, dishes and glasses, also Around the floor boards. So the cleaning lady should really do a detail cleaning once and awhile instead of a quick clean.

Know before you go

Had the amenities one needs. Check in involved a wait in a long line for the restaurant (high tourist season made the restaurant very busy - there is no separate check in service for hotel guests). Parking is street parking and metered during the day, so plan to drop your luggage and then plug meters for parking or park further away for free. No air conditioning - on a very hot day this was a bit rough during the day, however the nights are cool in Lunenberg so we ended up being comfortable later in the night.

We checked in at the restaurant downstairs. We were in the same queue as people trying to get a table so it was a little inefficient but still quick. The room was upstairs in a secured building with a code to the front door and another code to the room (wonder how often if they get changed). The room had thoughtful amenities. Access to Lunenburg Waterfront was quick and amazing. Plenty of dining options in town, would have tried the seafood linguini downstairs but we had a hankering for poutines elsewhere. There's no parking attached to the property, but we were able to find street parking with permitted overnight stay- meter started at 10am so we put coins for 1hr before we checked out. Just one thing, we had our windows open to let air, and BBQ prep began early morning downstairs (we were sure we smelled brisket!) so maybe expect some noise with the windows open. Overall a good stay.

The cutest room we have stayed at! Beautiful view of the ocean. Decorated lovely. We are sad now that we checked into a chain hotel and wish we were back above the salt shaker! If you haven’t booked it yet, DO IT!!

I wanted to give a great review for the wonderful location, charm of this building, friendliness of staff and the excellent dining and service, but the heat in room (1) in the inn was significant and truly impacted my sleep and well being during my visit. I’m not sure if it is due to being located on top of a restaurant but the room was significantly hotter than it was outside and it remained uncomfortable despite the use of both a ceiling and floor fan. It is really unfortunate because it really takes away from what could otherwise be a perfect stay.
