The Fourth Lock Bed & Breakfast

The accommodation impresses with exceptional service, clean and cozy rooms, and a convenient location near the airport and an interesting restaurant. However, some guests were dissatisfied with the limited breakfast options.

This is a cute and unusual little place, conveniently located for Halifax airport. The instructions for self check in are very easy, the room is private and there is a little common living room area overlooking the lake, where you can make coffee at any time. The restaurant downstairs seems to be a very popular spot for locals and I ate a very tasty vegan meal there. I stayed here for two separate one night stays and the first night (a Tuesday), the restaurant was closed, but my second night was a Friday and the noise in the room from the restaurant was quite loud. The noise from the road is also very loud, unless you keep the window closed. There is a very large amount of traffic flowing past here and at times it is very difficult to get in and out of the driveway, which was surprising. I stayed in the Lake William room, which does have a partial view of the lake. The room was clean, but the bed wasn’t super comfortable for me. Overall I would recommend here, especially if you are on a budget, as the price is decent.

There is a very nice restaurant/pub on the main level with great food and service. We arrived for checkin as advised but the self checkin requires an access code that we had not been provided in advance. After a bit of creative research we tracked down the needed code. That should have been advised through *******. Otherwise all was good.
