Great communication. Always quick to respond and very accommodating to ensure we had everything we needed. The kitchen amenities were very nice, and it was great to be able to do some laundry during our stay. Great location. Close to lots of scenic places to check out, including the top of the hill of Sugarloaf. We would stay here again. Zero complaints.

“Fabulous end to our Canadian adventure”
The suite was clean and spacious, and was in the best location. Close to the ferry terminal, but in a quiet friendly neighbourhood. The beach was just a short walk and shops a short drive. The hosts are friendly, welcoming and extremely helpful. Very quick to respond.
