Reviews based on Breakfast
The staff are wonderful, very helpful, and well informed. The rooms were beautiful, clean, and relaxing. The complimentary breakfast was great, well made and provided a nice opportunity to either mingle with the other guests or keep to yourself. You're also only a block or 2 away from downtown Charlottetown and some great restaurants. Stayed for 2 nights when we traveled to PEI, and the time there was so good we decided to come back for another night a few days later. On the second stay, the air conditioner wasn't working, but the staff were very quick to address it and get the problem resolved. HIGHLY recommend staying here if you get the chance. We'll be coming back for another stay next time we vacation in PEI.
We had a very modern attractive room in one of the renovated houses on the property. It was quite a contrast with the dark Victorian lobby in the main building. We found breakfast uncomfortable and awkward there so we went out to a terrific nearby coffee spot. Parking is free but limited but we were able to find an available space each day we were there. Location was central and the price was reasonable. They do not have a restaurant but there are many in the area.
