Hotel in zona Big Red Numbers, Charlottetown

What a charming and quirky hotel. Charlottetown is a lovely small city, dotted with historic buildings. One of those is the Dundee Arms Inn. The lobby and common areas aren't air conditioned, and we arrived on a particularly warm day. I worried as I entered carrying our things up to our third floor room. Thankfully, the room had a very efficient air conditioner. The room had lots of character, almost magical. You enter into a sitting area with a sofa, tables, a desk, etc. To the left was a small but tasteful bathroom with the cutest little tub! The angles of the roof cast intriguing shadows. THe large and sturdy bed was situated in the turret, making for a tight squeeze for us larger men, but the space was a whimsical escape. The inn includes a large deck with numerous tables, mostly for drinks from the bar, but it's also a great place to dine on breakfast delivered from nearby eateries. The only real drawback is the lack of elevator. My advice for couples is to pack one small bag for both. That will save numerous trips up and down the stairs.

L'hotel era medio in tutti i modi per quanto riguarda i servizi, ecc. È andato a colazione la mattina e abbiamo messo il bagaglio nella macchina quando siamo andati. Il colazione è finito presto, quindi il desk front check-out è andato e hanno detto 11:00, così abbiamo detto loro che non c'era fretta e andava a fare una passeggiata.Era fuggitivo, quindi non volevamo andare fino a dopo, il piano era più vicino a 11. Sono tornato da passeggiata pochi minuti dopo 9 per andare in camera e lavare dopo colazione e fare un controllo finale per gioielli lasciati sulle tende notturne, sui carri, sui calzini caduti, ecc. Immagina come mi sentivo quando la porta della mia stanza è aperta! Ho pagato $317.00 per una stanza non è nemmeno stato usato fino a quando non è arrivato il momento di checkout. Quindi la sicurezza non è così grande se non si preoccupano se hai controllato prima di lasciare la porta aperta. Tutto quello che abbiamo ottenuto da loro è stato un peccato. Ho viaggiato per lavoro e piacere in molti paesi per anni e non ho mai avuto personale in camera mia come questa e lasciato aperta.

This was a nice hotel for a family getaway. It’s typical family spot, with decent breakfast, pool, and parking. The rooms’ layout is nicely thought-out and we had a comfortable stay. The only complaints are about noise, though we had at least one big group through in a tour bus and a kids’ team staying at the hotel at the same time as our stay. The hotel location is decent too for touring via car and it’s a short drive to Charlottetown downtown/waterfront. If you’re worried about noise then I recommend staying in a more ‘adult’ or upscale place.

La struttura è piuttosto nuova e tutto era perfetto. Il personale del desk era utile nel direttaci a chiudere il ristorante e la camera era grande e confortevole.

I would give this a one star but everything is relative. PEI is a place where a lot of people come to camp so it is not a land of many five star hotels. We stayed here because Air Canada was supposed to get us in around midnight. But with all the flight changes we arrived at 4 PM. Wow this place needs some TLC! Our cost including tax was 124 Canadian. Here are the acceptable amenities: 1) Free airport pick up- very nice 2) Built in shower ( so no dirty grout) Hot Water and good water pressure. 3) Only a 10 minute walk from coaches sports bar and Grill which was very good. 4) black out curtains 5) extremely quiet during the night At first glance the property is a cute Roadside motel. But when you open the door to the room everything is obviously very, very old. In my opinion the only thing that should be on a hotel bed is everything that can be washed every time a guest leaves. There is a blanket and a bedspread on top of the sheets which I am guessing do not get washed every time a guest leaves.( that is just an assumption.) The bathroom formica sink is coming apart, there are permanent stains around the toilet on the old linoleum floor, the mattress and pillows are uncomfortable and the mattresses is noisy so you will wake up your partner at night getting up. The coffee pot was dirty… Which I cleaned with Lysol wipes but don’t bother because the coffee in the room is more like coffee flavored water. The room appeared to be clean enough but it is depressingly old. If you must stay across the street from the airport for one night it’s fine. Breakfast consists of ham chunks, scrambled eggs, boiled potatoes, various cold cereals, oatmeal which was cold from sitting out in an uncovered dish for hours, orange juice that was actually very good, and coffee served from (also) dirty / stained coffee pots.
