Basic, quaint, comfortable with lovely breakfast

Room was musty smelling, but that can be expected in this area. Room was large, comfy king size bed. Nice mini fridge with separate freezer compartment. The spacious bathroom was clean, had tub with a wonderful rain shower. Location was okay, a few amenities within walking distance, but lots more just a short drive away. There are delicious full breakfast options that are included with your stay and served in the little attached cafe. We had a nice water view. Was raining & late in day when we arrived so didn’t check out much of the neighbour hood.

The property is a historic building but needs to be upgraded to meet 2025 standards. It feels shabby. For example, there are barely enough plugs in the bedroom and few are 3-pronged. For the price being charged, kleenex and toilet paper should be soft. We were told the power would be off in the morning and there would be a cold breakfast downstairs. The power did not seem to go off and the breakfast was abysmal. Lots of bread in the fridge but nothing to put on the bread - i.e. no butter, peanut butter or cheese. Coffee could have been brewed and left in a thermos. Nada. We had to hunt for plates and there were no napkins anywhere. In a word - inhospitable.

I liked the waitress in the restaurant. Workwd her butt off but remained friendly amd cheery. I didnt like others, probably owners or staff, coming in after us, going straight to a window with a view (we had a wall) and being serrved and eating before we even got to order. I liked the brewery across the street.
