Loved the heritage home. Inn keepers were lovely people. Great breakfast. We had a private bathroom but had to leave our room to get to it across the hall which we didn't like.

Our stay at The Nelson House was a great, great experience. The hosts (including a very friendly puppy!) were very welcoming and kind. The place itself was beautiful and quaint, with lots of cute decor. The room was very quiet - especially the air conditioning - which made it very easy to sleep. Now, the highlight of this place is their amazing breakfast. Guests can choose from two different menus, served with coffee or tea (there are a lot of tea bags to choose from!) and a small selection of fruits. Would definitely recommend for a stay near the Halifax airport!
