"The hotel was very clean, bed was super comfortable and the staff was amazing as always, stayed here several times over the years …. The reality is the property is getting quite dated, the hotel has been open since 1961 and it definitely shows, with the proper updating this would once again be a top rated premium destination in Baddeck."
