The room was clean, but we could not control the temperature - it was too cold. We mentioned it to the staff and were told there was nothing they could do about it. The building was built in the 1800's and cannot accommodate central air conditioning.
The restaurant food was very good.

The Inn is quaint and has so much history, but it is need of some TLC and updating. The gardens and front entrance needs weeding and trimming. There is no elevator and the stairs have carpeting that is worn through. Our bathroom had an old, deep Jacuzzi tub with a wooden step to get in it. There was no bath matt which made it very slippery. It was almost impossible to get out of. We used it only one day if our two night stay. There was no storage in the bathroom - just a bench and pedestal sink which made it difficult to use your toiletries. Our room had two windows with blinds that looked out to the upper veranda and there were no privacy curtains on the windows so anyone sitting out there could see into our room.
It could be a wonderful place but needs more staff and lots of refreshing.

I arrived after the receptionist had left. They had left the key out for kitchen staff to check me in. I waa so relieved I still had a room. Thank you for making my day and your beds are fabulous. I slept so peacefully even with a strong storm through the night. Will 100% be back and plan to tell all my family and friends what a gem the inn is.

Air conditioning and wifi were lacking despite offering as an amenity. Staff is only available to help you before 5 pm. You can hear neighbours on both sides of room. If you’re comfortable quiet stay, this not the place for you.

Quality of food at restaurant was not great. $30+ for a basic cheese burger.

Great Location on Main Street but way overpriced for a small antiquated room. TV was mounted on a wall that was almost impossible to see and shower did not work. I didn’t have time to ask for help with shower so I just gave up. Check in and staff were great but still doesn’t justify the price of room. You have to somehow wrangle a parking spot on the street which is a problem during most times. This is just another reason why Canadians travel outside of country for better value.

Loved the property. Restaurant and reception staff very helpful. Had dinner and breakfast at The Inn. Both meals were very good.

Location is excellent.

Only issue was the lack of air conditioning in our room. Advertised as having A/C but apparently not in every room. Since front desk staff gone at 5:00 there wasn’t any relief from the heat the first night. Housekeeping did give us a fan the next day but it was very loud.

Will definitely return here but will be sure not to book a room that faces west.

We like the historic nature of this hotel but feel that it needs some TLC. The staff was friendly and accommodating.
We ate breakfast in the dining room once. The food was fine, but the floor was dirty under tables and under the sideboard. It had been swept by the evening meal which was very good. The chairs in the dining room look as if they need to be refurbished.
Our large room had a door to a balcony which we enjoyed each day. The bed was comfortable but we found the room too warm, even with a fan. The room also needs an additional chair placed in front of the TV as its placement makes watching from the couch very difficult. Suggest having hangers available.
We enjoyed our stay but would have enjoyed it more with a few changes.

The Little Inn has been a special place to us for many years. It is indeed charming and the staff was all kind and helpful.
We did discover on this trip that we should have waited a week or two since they were in transition to full season services. The dinner menu had several changes that had to be conveyed verbally since the printed menu was not updated, and, most disappointing was that there was no breakfast available except on weekends at this point. Other breakfast possibilities in town were also closed on the morning we left.
Ther decor of this historic inn, the proximity to the water, and the other shops in town are all worth the trip.
And they still have the best creme brulee anywhere 😊

The breakfast server would not seat us at the window, even though that space was not occupied, even after we left.

She never once checked on us during the meal and I had to go in search of her for some jam.

We had the misfortune of having a room almost above the live entertainment, and this boomed into our room for two hours.

The television set did not work, even though a helpful young woman from the front desk tried to get it operational.

Most of the staff (servers)were very helpful. The bed was very comfortable. Had to wait almost an hour to get into our room even though it was ready and it was after the check in time. They did apologize and offered us a free drink for our inconvenience. Breakfast omelet price was very misleading. It was advertised as a vegetable omelet with a list of ingredients. Price $20.00. The server asked me to pick 3 ingredients off the list that I wanted in my omelet, which I did. When the bill came, I was charged $3 for each ingredient, so $9.00 which brought the cost of the omelet to $29.00. Wow, $20.00 for 2 fried eggs plus another $9.00 for about 1/4 cup total of veggies,

Bayfield is like a mini version of Niagara on the Lake. Numerous clothing stores, art gallery, restaurants but missed the kitchen store and Christmas store that I recall from a previous visit many years ago.

Overall, a really enjoyable experience. The hotel warns that the parking is street parking but we did not have any difficulty finding parking very close to the hotel as there is quite a lot of parking along Main St. Service in the restaurant and bar was friendly and very good. The only detractors from our stay were: 1. The plumbing is probably as old as the building. The shower would very suddenly turn quite cold, probably because someone somewhere else turned on hot water. 2. Our room was the last room in a hallway and there was no light in the hallway. I don't mean that there was no lightbulb; there was no light fixture at all. It wasn't so much of a problem with there not being enough light to see the lock and get into our room, but just detracted a bit from the experience of returning to the room.

Beautiful historic Inn. Staff are very nice. Area is amazing - easy walk to many shops, Lake Huron, park areas and restaurants.
On site restaurant... this is our 4th visit. The quality of food has seriously declined. Prime rib was unedible - tough and grisley. Waitress did not ask how our meals were even after seeing we did not eat the meat. Breakfast was okay - bread was hard/ unedible. Not sure why this area has gone so bad, but otherwise, if you are are a heavy sleeper then the downstairs rooms are okay - as you hear EVERYTHING from the hallways and upstairs rooms. I suggest staying upstairs for a better sleep. I know, it's an old Inn.. but there is no soundproofing.
Our group of 4 sat with the owner at the bar one evening and he did not greet us, ask how our stay was.. nothing. Disappointing. Not sure if we will return for a 5th visit, although we do love the village and convenience.
