Dalhousie University Tours and Activities

While the property offered reasonable accommodation, it is not a hotel. There are no services, amenities or support on site and was operated more like a studio apartment for rent. It was clean, reasonably maintained and had some kitchen equipment but I am not sure why it needed a full size dishwasher when there was no stove or microwave to cook with. The supplied 4 cups, glasses and plates would never fill it! The main issue with the place was parking. It was a nightmare and really impacted our trip. There is parking outside the hotel but it is limited to 1 hour. Neighboring streets are 2 hours, plenty of business lots but all restricted with threats of towing, we could not even find a paying lot anywhere close. We messaged the front desk to ask for suggestions and no one ever replied. We spend most of our 4 days trying to work out where to leave the car and then street cleaning added an extra complication. We ended up with a parking ticket and seriously considered leaving a day early because of the hassle. Decent accommodation but they should come to an agreement with a local business to use underutilized parking lots.

The staff were friendly and the motel had a real small town feeling. It is a little bit old but you can tell they are working on improvement. A great location to stay to see this side of Nova Scotia.

Beautiful property, definitely would recommend.
