Reviews of The Library Inn

Great

Shower was small and on one night, down the hall(although exclusively ours)

A stately period home tastefully restored and staged with art, nautical objects, antiques and books placed enticingly everywhere. Room to breathe and sleep near the sea.

That we had to leave so soon

The owner and hostess is friendly, attentive and helpful. Breakfast was great. Choices and great local fruit and jams. Location is lovely. The ocean breezes and views.

Beautiful, historic home with a lovely host.

I hope the backstory about the property. And Alison had made so many intentional choices from stacks of meaningful literary novels to a lovely fresh home. Alison also went out of the way to try to find some guitar strings so my husband could play the instrument. She had the serve yourself tea and cookie station was also a nice touch.

There wasn’t much to not like about it. I would suggest that there was some more outdoor seating because it was a beautiful view and a lovely property and I would like to enjoy it more outside as well.

The gracious, and helpful hospitality, location, ambience/decor were very soothing,, breakfast options were delicious using the freshest local ingredients prepared with skill and thoughtfulness, fellow travelers, privacy, rooms were very quiet with beautiful views, beautiful paintings. Alison was always available to answer any questions, make suggestions Supply materials for going out to make our stay everything we could have asked for and more.

Allison was very kind, helpful and welcoming. The room and house was beautiful and within 15-30 minutes drive was several hiking routes, beautiful beaches and places to visit.

Great location

Nothing

I had the beautiful suite of rooms, decorated impeccably in Victorian style Alison is the perfect hostess and great cook - breakfast was awesome! Really interesting guests to interact with. I went by myself for 3 days and enjoyed my stay immensely. I plan to come back next summer!

Nothing

Allison's care to detail and desire to please her guest goes above and beyond what is the norm these days. Her breakfasts were outstanding. She even made a special trip to Charlottetown to get us more of the most delicious jams on day two of our stay, after we had commented on how delicious they were. The room we stayed in was beautifully appointed and the bed was extremely comfortable. This was not the only lovely spot in the B & B, the whole home is beautifully decorated.

The location was beautiful and peaceful, with views over the water and mature trees and hydrangeas surrounding the inn. The inn is gorgeous — a cozy and charming heritage building with high ceilings and original architectural features, and beautiful decor. Allison is a truly wonderful hostess, so engaging and knowledgeable, a fabulous cook (breakfasts were outstanding!), and she had great recommendations for local sites, restaurants, and shopping.

We wish we could have stayed longer!

The laid-back feel, the lovely decor, the century-old home, the spontaneity, the breakfasts, comfy bed, great private shower even though it was not in the room.

Loved everything about the Library Inn.

Everything! This is the first time I literally can't come up with any negatives. We have travelled a lot in the last 10 years...a variety of accommodations ...and the Library Inn was outstanding. Allison has created that fine balance of comfort without feeling uncomfortable!! Little touches like using local soap, local jams, help yourself to tea and cookies, the piles of books around to read, the spaces in which to sit and relax.....all these little extra touches have created such a sense of 'home' and 'acceptance' in this Inn. She is a brilliant host.....we had some great discussions about books...and life in general. We were sad to leave after our 3 days.

Nothing!!!!!

Beautiful place right across from the water. Breakfast was great and the host Allison gave us many great suggestions of things to do and see in the area.

Allison took great care of us! She texted or called when we were running late when we were out touring the island to make sure we didn't have any problems. She provided some great suggestions for restaurants and exploring the island. The breakfasts were made to order. The breakfast conversations with other guests was delightful!! The Library Inn was cozy and inviting.

Not being familiar with PEI, I didn't realize the Library Inn in Souris was so far from most of the things we planned to do. This was my fault for not researching more. We were happy with the quieter side of the island and thoroughly enjoyed the drives as we explored.

Amazing stay, great old house with pleasant host. The full breakfast included in the price was really good in the mornings, nicely located close to the coast.

Need for more amenities regarding trash in common room.

The house was comfortable and the host was lovely, friendly and a terrific cook.

Can’t think of something that we didn’t like.

Alison was a lovely host! The home and our room were both beautiful and very comfortable. We also really enjoyed our breakfast in the mornings.

The perfect place to stay on PEI. Allison is an exceptionally attentive and kind host, who gave good recommendations for things to do locally, and looked after us fantastically with freshly cooked breakfasts each morning. We loved the room with a sea view and slept beautifully in the enormous bed. The living room with an open fire was a lovely touch, and one our best evenings was spent reading by the fire and drinking whiskey. Thanks so much Allison, we'll be recommending your place to all our friends!

The house is beautiful and very spacious. Great location to Basin Head beach, and nice view to the harbor. The rooms are very comfortable and tastefully decorated. You find boutique soap in the bathroom with fresh fragrances.The bedding, immaculate, and beautiful. And for the first time I found someone with the good sense of not making the beds in summer with a comforter that gives you unnecessary heat in the night but leaving it optional at the bottom of the bed if you want to use it. The breakfast is like no other since it is customized to the preferences of the guest. The host is superb. A lovely, attentive, sweet lady pending even the minimum details to make your stay a memorable experience. Is a pleasure to talk to her and hear her advice on literature.One of the best places I have ever stayed. Would give a score of 20 if available.

Having to leave!
