An amazing location for the sights, restaurants, shopping, museums, ocean strolls, and more! We loved the cozy and safe neighbourhood of James Bay. The Carriage House was easy to find and check-in would have been simple on our own, but Dan met us to show us our room and ask our preference (“Tea or coffee?”) and time for breakfast. The stairs to the room are narrow and curved but well-lit 24hrs - in this case with Christmas lights. Our room was well-appointed with everything we could want: comfy beds on the firm-side with luxurious bedding, lots of pillows, and extra blankets (although the single bed duvet was a bit scratchy), mini fridge, adequate plug-ins for phones, lovely lighting and blackout curtains, full-length mirror, and a small counter for instant coffee and tea (provided). Decor is heritage-style and relaxed - nothing slick or shiny here. The bathroom is small but efficient - one person at a time! My tall husband wasn’t a fan of the shower situation as it is under the slope of the eaves and a skylight, but I loved it! I could see the Christmas lights on the parliament buildings while I showered. Lots of high quality towels. Breakfast was prepared to order while we sipped our coffee/tea and enjoyed some fresh fruit. I had “the works”: oatmeal, eggs, and French toast and even borrowed a travel mug for the delicious coffee. My husband had eggs on toast. What else to say? It was quiet! So very peaceful and quiet - even on a Friday night. The parking space was large and easy to use for our full-sized truck.
