For 1 person and a small dog, I had 2 double bed in my room. Using the sink, I discovered that the water ran out very slowly. Therefore, I only used it to bush my teeth. Anything else, I used the tub faucet.

The inn is being renovated so the area immediately around the inn is messy. It is very convenient that there are two restaurants right by the inn, one is in the inn. We ate at both these restaurants and they were good. There is also a great coffee shop that serves breakfast and lunch across the street from the inn. It is dog friendly and there is a good road to work dogs on (Bruce Bay Road). I would stay here again.

I was travelling by boat and arrived at the nearby City Marina. I arrived around lunch time and check-in wasn't until 4 pm. Max, the manager, moved my room ahead on the cleaning schedule while I went to the excellent restaurant next door for lunch. The clean room itself was great for me travelling by myself. The bed was comfortable and the shower was hot. It was a cool night so I only used the heat. There was a microwave and small fridge. What I really liked is that I scheduled another stay here after completing my boat trip around the North Channel. I came into the marina again around noon. I went to the Inn just to let them know I was there, planning to go get lunch and do some work on the boat. Max told me my room was ready! He remembered my name and intentionally kept that room clean and vacant the night before anticipating that I would arrive early again. And Max gave me a small discount for returning so soon.

Walls were scuffed and dirty. There was a used facial tissue and some plastic packaging discarded under one of the beds. The curtains were worn and ripped, one of the lamps was falling apart potentially exposing bare wires and there was no security chain on the door. The photos on the website look nice but the room we were in was awful.

Renovation materials lying around the place. Restaurant poor. Room accessible only with key. Bathroom very small and toilet seat unsecured. Stained carpet. Damaged headboard. Also, when I tried to cancel 48 hours before checking in was told by hotel owner and Expedia that 72-hour notification required. This reflects badly on the hotel and Expedia.
