The room is big with a nice view on the water front. It is very clean. The bed is extremely high but confortable. The location is perfect, close to everything. The only negative point is the bathroom. It really needs to be renovated, especially the toilet. It dors not flush easily.

Absolutely beautiful place right in the heart of Lunenburg. Everything is within walking distance. Bed was very comfortable. Bathroom is exceptional. Smart TV and solid wifi. Staff was wonderful. Little kitchenette was convenient. Small ice bags at the front desk was a nice idea. The only issue is parking. It's first come first serve on the streets. You'll also need to download the parking app to pay for your parking on the street. This was our favorite stay on our two week trip of Nova Scotia.

No parking no restaurant the accommodations are old, but they are very clean. Disappointed as online when I booked it it showed there was a restaurant and people sitting at it having drinks overlooking the water and there wasn’t. It had been closed for two years. And based on the price, I felt something else should’ve been offered like a restaurant or a bar or even parking. Not sure that I would book there again.

Our room and the check-in area were very clean and the staff was friendly. We had a lovely view of the harbor, the Bluenose II, and the horse drawn carriages on Bluenose Drive from an enclosed sunroom off our bedroom. Very pleasant and many good restaurants, shops, and the waterfront within easy walking distance.

We loved our overnight stay at RumRunner. The room was super clean, comfortable, with special touches that made you feel welcome. It has a communal balcony that with a view of the harbor where you can have some quiet time with a glass of wine or a cup of coffee. The staff was very friendly and was there to greet us even though we arrived somewhat late. We would be happy to return!

The room was great, the staff is wonderful. Parking can be an issue as it is all On street parking. However it opened up quickly. The porch room needs some work. Window handles broken! Plus the room in the hot summer is difficult to use.
