What was unique was that there are no staff on site. Check-in was by code and breakfast was help yourself in the kitchen and wash up your own items. Not a problem and the place was very quiet- perhaps too quiet for some. So not really a hotel if by that you expect a manned reception and a bar. But the room was very good and well appointed and the hot tub and seating area a bonus, and the location on the river bank was great.

We really enjoyed our stay at Evergreen. The room was nicely presented and very clean. The Inn was easy to find and only a short trip into town to find restaurants. Would highly recommend.

Lovely little hotel when in Antigonish. Big parking lot, convenient to both the town and the highway. Super comfy beds and pillows! They also offer an evening meal (which was ok but could have been better) which is extra, and an included breakfast which is basic but does the job!

We got here very late and the front desk person was very helpful and clear on the phone explaining how it would work if we were later (we just made it before he left!). Unfortunately we had to leave before the breakfast place was open. The hotel served our purposes well.
