Guest Reviews
- James (6/5): Read the REVIEWS! - Our review is based on a four night stay. This property has the potential to be a 5 Star property. However, the lack of attention to detail, cleanliness and service downgrade it significantly. If you rent the Penthouse, be aware you will have to carry up your luggage. There are two flights of stairs to enter the building and another two to reach the Penthouse. This is not made clear in the description. One of the Hosts was kind enough to carry our bags for us (maybe because of our age). The breakfasts were meagre and some of the fare was outdated. The Penthouse could use a couple of small garbage cans, A TV, a writing desk and chair and MOST OF ALL A NEW BED!! It's an old memory foam that has lost it's memory completely. We slept in deep canals with great discomfort. The doors to the balconies off the Penthouse don't lock and the balconies weren't clean. On the positive side they offer two charging stations for EV's and it is a great location. Until the many negative comments we and others have made in previous reviews are corrected, WE WILL NEVER STAY THERE AGAIN.
- Jennifer (10/5): - We had a beautiful stay! Wonderful amenities. So relaxing. We will be back!
- Catherine (8/5): - Amazing and responsive staff!
- Claude (4/5): - Il est pas mentionner dans l’annonce expédia que cet établissement est un Shared Space!! J’ai louer une chambre avec des gens que je connaissait pas dans une maison!! Si s’aurait été mentionner dans l’annonce jamais jlaurais réserver!! Mauvaise publicité pour Expedia
- Daniel (10/5): - We enjoyed our stay, staff was friendly.
- Lisa (10/5): - My daughter and I absolutely loved our stay. It was everything we wanted. There were some compromises but we were fine with it. Such a beautiful place and memory. We will definitely be back when we visit Halifax again! Thanks so much!!
- John (4/5): - The air conditioning in our room was not working. We let the manager know but to no avail. On the hottest days of the year, we did not have working AC for the four days we were there. The shower didn't work properly either & leaked everywhere causing the bath mat to be soaked the whole time. The place said it was a B & B, we gave up on the "breakfast" after 2 days. Luckily there is a Pur n Simple within easy driving for a proper breakfast. Overall, we were only happy with the location.
- Mary R. (10/5): - Amazing stay at the Rooftop! My room was very cozy with lots of space. The team onsite are great as well :) I will be telling all my friends about this place!
- Olga (2/5): - Extremely disappointing stay, not family-friendly We stayed from July 22–24, 2025. The bed linens were dirty, AC was broken, and strangers entered our room to fix it. The shower didn’t work for two days. Staff entered without permission and left the door open. A staff member ruined our laundry. Breakfast was poor. One female staff member wore extremely inappropriate clothing. Totally unacceptable, especially with a 5-year-old child. Not recommended.
- Nathan (8/5): - The property is ok and we had a quiet night. It is however advised to make it practical to access the main entrance which has a cumbersome access procedure. We were assisted by the staff.
- mylene (10/5): - The penthouse was perfect
- François (8/5): - Un manque d'entretien est déficient. Drain du bain semi-bouché, poigné de porte de salle de bain défectueuse, Difficulté pour ouvrir la porte d'entrée, penture de porte d'entrée a ajuster (goujon du haut), equipement de cuisson exterieur rouillés, Evaporateur d'air climatisé bruyant, chaises longues non accueillantes. Ceci sont des commentaires constructif.
- Kevin (6/5): - The doors were basically all broken. Or very tight. We had the King suite and wanted to enjoy the fireworks in the distance that was happening for a local event that could easily be seen but all the furniture was soaked by a hose earlier and the whole deck was sprayed down so the rooftop was not useable at all. Which was disappointing because for the money that was a desire of ours to chill out up there and use the fire table with fireworks in the distance. The table was covered and full of tinfoil when we lifted the cover and the furniture was completely drenched by the hose eajust after supper which rendered us SOL to use any of it. Why she chose to clean it then leaves me wondering. It was a gorgeous evening and it hadn’t rained a drop all day. When we were leaving to go for supper water started hitting our windshield just to discover the cleaner was spraying everything on the roof with a hose. And the water was coming down onto our car. I’m glad we closed the sunroof earlier. Anyway, the pictures make this place seem high, high end but it is a good from far, far from good situation. We got locked out a couple times because the main entrance door lock system is broken and the other guests were luckily there to let us in. They need to do some big repairs and upkeep to keep charging what they are. Dami was very nice but she is stuck doing only what she can with what appears is zero help from the owners. Hotel next time for us.
- Jean (8/5): - Ambiance was peaceful. Management was very responsive. The outdoor hot tub was a delight.
- Helen (6/5): - We used the sauna and it was great. We had trouble opening front door. Took us a few tries before we got it. Needs some handy work done on doors. Too many stairs for us. Would have liked a door on our bathroom. The small handle in shower needs tightening as was very loose. Not to our liking.
- Searra (10/5): - This was one of the coolest stays on our honeymoon roadtrip. You really can’t beat it if you’re staying in Halifax. We stayed in the penthouse suite and had a personal hot tub, sauna, double balcony, and breakfast delivered to the room each morning. Beautiful, modern, clean, and affordable for what you get. We highly recommend dinner at Bar Kismet nearby.
- Melinda (8/5): - Privacy in a double room when using the toilet would be stellar , even a curtain
- William Fredrik (10/5): - ‘
- Jessica (2/5): - This is an excellent property that has been allowed to get run down. The batteries operating the window shades were expired. The shower control comes off on your hands, etc., etc. The property's entrance is not marked. It is actually a fourth floor walk up. The person looking after the place, was sweet, but not really capable in English. With a little work, this could easily be a 4 star property. It is a shame to see it neglected.
- emily (6/5): - We arrived shortly after 3pm and were greeted by a hostess in pyjamas. The penthouse was beautiful, but There was duct tape on lots of the ceiling, a drip that dripped brown liquid into the bathroom vanity. We had to remove the drain with a butter knife in the tub. It was a bit strange. The sauna controls are falling off of the wall. I tried to turn on the shower accessories hose and the knob fell off. Along with that, one of the knobs to the tub is clearly broken and repaired poorly, allowing no control of one side of the jets. The patio was great but some deck furniture would have been nice to enjoy the space. The hot tub was nice and hot but we couldn’t figure out the controls (lights and jets) and we enjoyed the outdoor sauna. When we were in the common space there was loads of laundry on the island, and the hostess was eating supper and on face time. We made our breakfast requests for 9:00. We came down and there was no one there but other guests. I reached out at 9:30 to ask if we should expect her, or go elsewhere. She told us she was stuck in traffic.. We made an espresso, but We opened the almond milk and it was so rotten the plastic lid was rotting off of the carton. There was juice in the fridge that expired in February (it’s March 29) there was not enough cream for two coffees. We opted out of our late check in to get out of there. The chef/hostess never responded to me when I texted her back about the delay. There is a live in host that never came to let us know
- Allen (8/5): - This is a unique and beautiful property and a quiet, relaxing getaway. The view from the Penthouse is amazing. Besides the duvet blanket the room and kitchen area was very clean. The breakfast was delicious and made especially for us to fit our dietary needs. We had some trouble with the shower, tub and motorized blinds but it wasn't a huge deal.
- Tanya (8/5): - Beautiful spot, found it strange no TV in room but the facilities and amenities (hot tub, sauna) was amazing feature. Unfortunately I was there for work so with breakfast being late, I was unable to have any.
