“Infuriating aloofness... Never been treated so poorly. A Disgrace.”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 15 August 2011

people found this review helpful

If you are a young foreigner (or foreign couple) visiting the Niagara area, have fun! Therefore, AVOID this B&B!
My girlfriend and I were travelling Ontario and, up to this point, were very much pleased with the friendliness of the people in Canada. We found this B&B via the visitor centre at a reduced rate. Arriving at the B&B, ths is what struck us:
1. It is NOT in town, but a good ways away from the centre.
2. the aforementioned lady of the house (an Irish woman) immediately took a condescending tone with us, "teaching" us proper etiquette for Canada ( I am a Canadian citizen, my girlfriend is not) and reprimanding me for my parking skills ("did you not SEE the parking spaces?"). This before any form of greeting.
3. She had the audacity to then tell us that "of course" breakfast was not included in the negotiated price (It's a Bed AND Breakfast!). She could, however, give us a breakfast for CAD 10/person. Coffee would be 5 CAD (seriously, I can't make this up).
4. the bedroom was clean enough, but the bathroom was a joke: shaky airconditioning, shower from the 70s. and don't get me started on the mattresses on the bed... (yellow room)

Because it was late, we both swallowed our outrage, and were gone by 8 the following morning.

So: AVOID. please.

We stayed one night and we had a great time. Yvonne is a wonderful person and a great cook. Her home is lovely and cozy. We highly recommend Avoca Bed and Breakfast.

“Warm and friendly and poetic”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 6 July 2005

Host Yvonne McMorrough welcomed us warmly to Avoca B&B, in her home in Niagara on the Lake. She provided us not only with comfortable rooms and a hearty breakfast every morning, but also information on local golf courses and sightseeing possibilities, and an invitation to the local Strawberry Festival where she participated in a poetry reading. Without her suggestion, we might have missed the butterfly conservatory nearby. And she tipped us off to the wonderful onion soup at the Table Rock restaurant at Niagara Falls.
