The room itself was great. Good location, great amenities (hot tub was wonderful) and was clean and well priced. Julien was a good gost as well and communicated well.One thing that wouldve been good to know prior to arriving was the presence of the dog, as my partner has a dog allergy and was somewhat affected by her allergies. Also, the lock on the door was very loose and should be fixed.

Hi Michael! Thank you for your review. You were a great guest and we appreciate your stay. We apologize for not informing about the dog. He is hypoallergenic (a schnoodle) so we don’t typically mention it but perhaps some people can still react. So if that’s the case we do apologize. You were great to have and welcome back any time!

Cute little unit and we enjoyed the hot tub. Nice view overlooking the adjoining par. A bit of a distance from downtown halifax in the traffic was crazy with construction on all the roads. But it was easy for us to leave the unit and continue on our journey
