This has to be the worst facility I have ever stayed in. After reading some of the other reviews (much to late for me now) I have to agree with some of them completely. How this B&B ever got a passing rating is beyond belief. The yard was a mess and the entrance was dirty with smudges on the walls.... More

I think my expectations were high because this has a 4 star rating, and I don't think it deserves it. We came the end of Sept, had not reserved a room, had to wait an hour while one was cleaned for us, that wasn't an issue as we went to eat supper. Some things were missing from the room that... More

Very unhappy with this property - front door covered with dirt & owner does not live onsite - we had to call another number then he came over 5 minutes later. House & furniture look good but when you look closely they are worn & not very clean. Bathroom towels were old, mismatched and under the sink & in the... More

We had to shower with our shoes on...in fact, should not have showered because the towels were not clean. The blinds had about 2-3 inches of dust on them. The guests in the next room,left... More

Unfortunately we were desperate & booked into this B&B from the Newfoundland guidebook a day before we needed it & gave our credit card number to hold a room. When you arrive, the front yard is a mess of either bare dirt or overgrown weeds. The backyard is worse with nothing but huge weeds surrounding some rundown lawn furniture. The... More

July 29 and 30. Room was not ready when we arrived, despite website saying check in by 3 pm. We were provided with 2 towels of different size,colour and quality and questionable cleanliness. There was one hand towel, no bath mat, no soap, no,shower gel. The bathroom floor had black hairs on it, the shower base and mirrors had not... More

This B&B was advertised both on line and in the NL travel guide as a 4*. It doesn't deserve a *. We aren't even sure if the linens were fresh on the beds. The double bed squeaked as soon as it was sat upon.The bathroom looked like it hadn't been cleaned in a while. There were two towels and two... More

My husband and I almost stayed here July 19. We called Gordon after trying a few other places which were full. He said he had 2 rooms but didn't tell us there is only a continental breakfast. After being there a while he came into the common room where we and another couple were watching TV. I asked him when... More

The brochure that you find out there at tourist information centres or wherever is the most inaccurate piece of work that I have ever seen. The lawn at the front of the house is all torn up There was a driveway at both sides of the house and not one as pictured.. The picture of the full traditional breakfast is... More

Our experience was terrible! I'm not a person that expects anything "fancy", just friendly service and clean facilities. There was no faceclothes or hand towels in our bathroom and only one bath towel. When we asked for faceclothes and hand towels the lady told us "she didn't have a chance to get around to drying them yet". The comforter had... More
