I stayed at this hotel and was really impressed by the picturesque setting right by the river. The rooms were quite clean and had a comfortable vibe, but I did find the bedroom a bit too warm for my liking. The dining options were fresh and tasty, making it a lovely addition to my stay. However, the service felt a little inconsistent at times. Overall, it was a good experience that provided solid value for money.

I really enjoyed my stay at this hotel, especially because it was right on the river and so close to Burntcoat Head Park and the Bay of Fundy. The rooms were clean, but I found them a bit too warm for my liking. The dining options were decent with tasty sandwiches, although I would have appreciated a bit more variety. Overall, the value was good for the location, but I faced some issues with the air conditioning in the room.

I had a pleasant stay overall. The hotel offers clean and comfortable rooms, and the views are simply stunning, especially from the porch overlooking the bay. The dining options, while decent, could use some improvement, particularly with the breakfast selection. I found the pricing to be reasonable for what I got, but the Wi-Fi access was a bit of a letdown as it was an extra charge.
