Shott visit to Halifax
Decided to head Down East to visit family and chose to book something different than a hotel room where we could prepare a couple of our meals rather than eat at restaurants all the time. Your location fit the bill and was clean and comfortable and nicely decorated. We would definitley stay again!

Not as comfortable as the first time we stayed
The unit is very well equipped with everything you could need I.e. electric appliances, love seat, bistro style dining with four chairs and a comfortable queen bed (cabinet bed). What we weren’t happy with is that it is looking a bit tired. Bedding is faded, corners are collecting dust, bathroom window with dead insects. Noise from upstairs above the bed a bit much for us.

Pleasant Stay
We really enjoyed our stay in Bedford. Amit is an attentive host and the suite is well appointed with most of what you’ll need for your stay. The driveway is steep but there is a siding to park your car. The AC was very welcome as it can get quite humid in August. We would consider staying here again.

This lovely B&B was so comfortable and clean and easy to be in. It is set in a quiet, safe neighbourhood, and provided by a responsive, friendly, thoughtful and kind host! The place is like a like a bachelor apartment, with a very comfortable bed, a sofa to relax on while reading or watching TV, a modern, spacious bathroom, and a lovely little kitchenette. I walked in the hilly neighbourhood each day because it was quiet and pretty, set off the edge of Bedford Basin, and the woods and trees along the streets and roads were very calming. My host, Amit, stocked the kitchen and bathroom with many thoughtful things that I so appreciated (any tool needed for cooking, coffee for my first couple of mornings, some fruit, a comfy bathrobe for after showering, and lots more). My check-in was late in the evening, and Amit readily accommodated that, and made it very easy, with clear instructions, a well-lit walkway to the door, and a seamless self-check-in system. I was glad to meet Amit on one of the days I was there, and have a little chat while he was working around his house. It's easy to imagine staying there for longer than my brief 5 day-stay, and I hope to return. I highly recommend this place. Thank you Amit!

This is a lovely cozy suite in a quiet area and it had everything we needed including a challenging hike in the woods to the left and close to restaurants on our walk to the right. Perfect location for us, awesome property manager/family, treated us with great care and concern.

It was quite pleasant. The accommodation was as stated, clean, spacious, modern, and close to where we wanted to be: central. There was a lot of stair climbing involved, which was fine for us but maybe not all older people. The bed was unusual but comfortable; the shower was quite spacious, and the kitchen was well-equipped. In general, it was very acceptable.

Enjoyed staying here. Small studio apartment with everything you would need. Host went above and beyond ensuring everything needed was there and even light breakfast for first morning in case late arriving. Within minutes drive to anything you may need plus more. No problem in recommending unless stairs is an issue mobility wise

I was comfortable here in both comfort of suite and comfortable when it can to feeling secure. Within 5 to 10 min drive to anything you may need and 15 minutes walk you can see the beautiful scenic basin. Host provided items expected in hotel suite plus more. No issue in recommending to anyone unless you cannot do stairs.

A little bit quirky
The suite was located in a quiet neighborhood, so there are not many restaurants in the area and the few that do exist are quite a distance away. We enjoyed walking around the neighborhood and chuckled every time we climbed the VERY steep driveway because it was so quirky and interesting. What we were least impressed with was that the bed was a fold away bed, so when you lay down, your head is inset deep into the storage box for the bed. Quirky, but also a little disconcerting. The pillows on the bed included a faux fur pillow which has never been cleaned and should be thrown away. The bathroom silicon needs to be replaced, but the kitchen was well equipped. Fundamentally, it's a suite in a house in a quiet, safe neighborhood that could use some updating and maintenance, but we still enjoyed our stay and while we never met our host, they were very responsive when we needed to ask a question and for check-in.
