Amazing. Simply perfect. I loved the room and had an ocean view along with the pier. It was clean and I didn’t want to leave. The amenities near by were excellent. I would have stayed another night if there had been availability

Our flight was cancelled and we found an ocean facing room at the Waterfront Inn. Staff were very friendly and helpful, got us organized , dealt with the airline on our behalf and ordered return taxis for all the stranded passengers. Clean, centrally located, on the waterfront, very close to all amenities including groceries, restaurants, shops. An unexpected but excellent find to end our trip. If you’re looking for a budget friendly Inn that’s under 10 min from the airport, this place is for you!

Fantastic location, walk to shops and restaurants and the waterfront. The room had a decent water view, but we were on the ground floor so it also overlooked the parking lot. The room was old and had an odd smell and needed a lot of updating. The bed was so close to the sliding door you had to turn sideways to walk out the door. And the mini fridge and microwave were stacked in the closet with no counter. The electrical plugs were mounted on the outside of the wall with conduit running along the baseboards.

My husband, mother and myself stayed in the Waterfront Cannery Suite, which was perfect! It looks exactly as it does in the photos on their website (other than flooring upgrade as the carpet has been removed). We moved furniture around a little to accommodate three people, but the murphy bed was comfortable, and the little deck facing the water was marvelous! The three of us (plus our dog) managed well in this room for two nights. It was walkable to absolutely everything and the staff was friendly and helpful. The brown bag breakfast they provided each night (for the next morning) was excellent - yogurt, banana, juice box, huge muffins and an egg/sausage wrap (though we didn't try this as we are vegetarian). We appreciated the black out blinds on the windows as the sunrise is quite bright (we didn't notice these on the first night unfortunately, and woke up very early). We would definitely stay here again the next time we visit Sidney.

We weren't here long enough to enjoy all this hotel has to offer or the location. We arrived late on the ferry and left the following day to continue our trip. Pros: Very clean Quiet Comfortable bed On the ocean Close to airport and ferry Breakfast in room (they are not doing hot breakfast yet so this is a continental breakfast to take to your room) Friendly front desk No cons Good value for the room rate. We will stay longer next time. Sidney looks like a nice little town to visit.

When we walked into our room, my wife said "this place smells clean" Five minutes later she said "This place IS clean" we felt extremely comfortable. The staff were friendly and efficient. The location was great. Looking forward to a longer stay next time.

The room was apparently "slated for electrical work" that could not be done because "we were in it". Booked March 13th yet we were still assigned that room. Advised we could not be relocated!!!! The front desk was uncooperative. We stayed two nights but only got "breakfast" for one. When booked I did not realize that there is no elevator in th building which was a struggle for us (seniors 82 and 75) to get our bags up the stairs and no assistance offered. I did not have time to discuss with the manager on check as we were taking a ferry back to the mainland. Have written but received no response at all. It's a disgrace even for three stars!!! I was concerned about a family with young children being assigned to this room with the electrical wires all exposed.
