Gorgeous home in a convenient location!
My colleagues and I came to town for the Fredericton Tattoo Expo, which required us to work 10hr days Friday through Sunday. With that in mind, we wanted to stay somewhere that gave us the option to make meals, do laundry if needed, and just spend our downtime together - a much funner way to spend a business trip than being alone in sterile, characterless hotel rooms.
We were immediately smitten with the Drift Inn from the photos online, but lemme tell ya, they definitely did *not* do the place justice. Paul & Bev clearly take a lot of pride in their property - from the tasteful, carefully curated decor inside to the beautifully landscaped backyard & fully furnished patio, the love they put into their home absolutely radiated from every inch of the place. Each morning, I’d wake up and venture downstairs to have a coffee in the sunlight, and every time I couldn’t help but be surprised by how spacious the Drift Inn was - it would def accommodate three couples very comfortably, as there was ample room for my two colleagues & I.
Our hosts were flexible and understanding with our hectic work schedule, answering our questions promptly if we needed anything. For example, my husband unexpectedly joined us at the last minute, but we had only booked for three people. Paul & Bev graciously allowed us to alter the reservation to add an extra person, which I thought was really kind of them to do. That being said, if you choose to stay here, please be aware that you do need to let them know the names of anyone visiting, and you’re not permitted to have overnight guests without changing your reservation through AirBnB. The Drift Inn is a classy place, well-suited to business trips or mature guests looking for a chill place to relax - I definitely wouldn’t recommend staying here if you’re planning to meet someone and bring them home for the night, but if that’s not on your radar then you’re *seriously* missing out if you pass this place up.
All in all, we had a wonderful weekend in Fredericton, and it was made all the better by our outstanding accommodations. 10/10, would rent again!
