"We stayed in the Family room. A great setup of 2 Queen and a separated 1 king bed, fridge & microwave. Items such as fan, hot & cold water taps and stairs were well marked. Great value for $$. Unique was "pre-ordering" your continental breakfast items the night before via a QR code. Perhaps a continued practice started during Covid. Food choices were good and a great convenient way to start the day. Bravo to Management & staff of Coastal Inn Antigonish"
