바이 더 리버 B&B

Perfect stay in a lovely location. Highly recommend

Stay away- the description is very deceiving. This is far from being an Inn and Spa. We had booked 2 nights and left after first night. We would not have stayed at all but it was late and we had a long travel day. We had 4 flights of narrow old carpeted stairs to our room. Concerned about safety should there have been a fire given location of room. No adults seen until next day. Young person who let us in did not ask us for identification and did not instil a sense of safety. Room was really large but furniture, blinds, outside furniture etc in disrepair. Thermostats covered with paper with notes saying not to remove. The decor did not match a historic old home and there was an unpleasant odour walking in. There was no sense of hospitality as one would expect in a bed and breakfast. No one greeted you, you wrote what you wanted for breakfast on a piece of paper the night before, you had to collect your own utensils, previous guest dirty dishes remained on the table limiting where we could sit. The host and cook were young children. No adult seen until we were checking out early. No questions asked about why and in fact no one even said goodbye or thank you.

Ours was an overnight stay on our way to Prince Edward Island. We were attracted to the Victorian style of the B & B and the interior had been restored beautifully, particularly in the public spaces on the first floor. The staff was friendly and helpful. There was a restaurant within walking distance, and we went there for dinner after a long day of driving. Breakfast, in the morning, was tasty and we were on our way the next day.

Bien situé, très belle maison mais qui aurait besoin d’amour.

Clean, comfortable room. “River view” was a stretch. Breakfast was pretty bland and took quite a long time despite needing to put your order and timing in the night before. Not the experience I’d expect from a B&B, but still a fairly nice stay.

Sean was the owners son and he was just great at getting you registered and settled in. He also made a wonderful breakfast in the morning. I would stay there again.

Clean room and roomy. Bathroom redone. Mattress not firm. Inside of house looks well cared for, outside of house in disrepair. Adequate breakfast.

Beautiful home. Breakfast was great. Short distance to downtown

This was a very cozy and quaint property, very conveniently located. Pros: The room was clean and very charming. Sean was kind and accommodating, he made a great breakfast. Check in was easy. Cons: Housekeeping was listed as an amenity, however we did not receive housekeeping. The host was hard to get a hold of when we needed something, but they were quick to fix the issue when we did reach them. I liked the vibe of the place and we met some fellow travellers when we were there. I would stay again, but I would adjust my expectations.

Only decent thing was the breakfast. This property is nothing like the photos as advertised. It is a character building but very poorly maintained and there is no access to a river on the property even from the run down sheds outback. A sad decline from its original glory obviously.

House need big repairs , staff not friendly with check in . Pictures on website better than reality

Beautiful place, friendly people, outside could use some TLC. Such a beautiful view wasted

It's our second time here, shocked when AC is not working. The staff gave as a small fan, glad we survived the night. The internet is terrible.

Comfortable room. Very nice breakfast. Convenient location. Overall very good value.

Site, Inn and room excellents, welcoming and staff ok.

Enjoyed our stay at By the River B&B. Room was clean and bed was comfy. Nice porch for coffee in the am or beverage at night and within walking distance to downtown. The only thing is that the TV did not work in our room as the network was not functioning, was not told this when checking in. Would stay again.

Convenient location. Walking distance to restaurants. Easy check keyless check in. Responsive and helpful hosts.

Pros- Breakfast was freshly made to order. Staff was super nice. Lilacs were perfectly in bloom and stunning. Cons- So much of the house is dirty. Flaky paint. Dusty window sheers that sit right on top of the radiator (fire hazard). Carpet on the stairs is old and dirty. The bath mat was clearly old and maybe not cleaned with each stay. There was a small stain on the sheet. The pillows were tiny. The street side of the house looks okay from a distance, but if you walk around the house it’s very clear it has not been maintained. We asked when the family purchased it- thinking maybe it was a new purchase… it was not. 2017. This place has so much potential… I feel sad for the house!

Beautiful room and home. Was clean and quiet. The host was friendly. The breakfast was basic and more like a budget hotel quality with hash browns from frozen, cheap breakfast sausage and over easy eggs that were over hard. Maybe I’m picky…. All was edible.

The Inn appears to be run by 1 individual who is a bit overwhelmed. Rooms were clean but it could use some updates. Bring your own toiletries as there aren't any offered at the inn. Breakfast is made to order. Omelets are full of onions. Meat lovers means an onion omelet and bacon on the side. I do believe that the owner did put in the effort but I think he has too much for 1 person.
