Nice accomodations. No parlor or sitting area in b and b. We were in The Library which had an outside entrance rather than thru interior of home. Breakfast was basic but with several options(standard egg/bacon/toast;.yogurt with blueberries; cereal; pancakes with blueberries; or French toast with blueberries) We chose pancakes with blueberries. The breakfast syrup was provided in the plastic, disposable individual cups and not the real maple syrup. You'd expect that in a hotel but not a bed and breakfast. Breakfast is served 8-9:30.

Nice Inn

Great. Place but it needs a bit of upkeep. The room was comfortable but the ceiling was cracked and peeling, no leak just old.The bed was super nice and comfortable and breakfast was good. Just needs some TLC. A few amenities like water and water glasses in the room would be a great addition.

The Victorian Inn desperately needs to be renovated. For the price, it should have had clean baseboards in the bathroom or a shower curtain that wasn't covered in slime. The beds are hard and uncomfortable, and I wondered the whole time when was the last time the quilts were laundered? It's dark and dreary inside the rooms and the whole place could use a paint job.

The inn is in downtown Antigonish so convenient to restaurants and the St. FX campus. This historic property definitely has potential but needs to be better maintained - seems to be run as a cash cow. Steps leading to the main entrance badly need a coat of paint, items stripped from the bathroom wall but not patched/repainted, bathroom faucets need to be replaced and only 1 ply (!) toilet paper used. Decent breakfast provided. Staff okay but could be more welcoming.

After going on a grand tour of Nova Scotia for our wedding anniversary, we arrived at the Victorian Inn. Although the house was surely a stunning old house, it is now suffering from deferred maintenance. The handrails at the main entrance were loose. The exterior needs pain. Our room, while comfortable had a filthy shower curtain that had obviously not been cleaned in a while and a shower curtain so dark, it was almost impossible to see when it was shut. There was no bath mat or anti slip devices. The outside of our room had fake flowers in terrible shape. Though the young man a the from desk was friendly and efficient, I am appalled at the state of the property. On par with a cheap motel, not the grand Victorian it ought to be.

The room itself was ok, it the property need some renovations to make it safer and more attractive. The front porch needs repairs, the railing is not stable, and it needs a little tlc on the inside too.

Stayed at Victorian Inn on recent trip to visit family. My wife is from Antigonish and remembers this location as the Bishop’s house. The facilities and staff were very good and the location is on the main street so it is close to most amenities. The included breakfast offered several choice options. The one man staff we met was very efficient.

When we arrived at the B & B there was nobody on site so we had to check ourself in, the key card was left on the reception desk with a note. We didn't see any B & B staff till the next morning at breakfast. Breakfast was basic but ok. The house itself was nice and was clean and in the center of Downtown. It's a fair price for what you get and ok for a stay.
