Coastal Inn Halifax

Not a bad place to stay.....but, unfortunately for us, we arrived while the front clerk was having a snack....extremely curt bordering on rude....... The room itself was basically like any other hotel room......but do exercise a little caution with the shower; the floor is extremely slippery and there isn't a bath mat. There is a pool, although we didn't utilize it. The exercise room isn't currently available, but appears adequately equipped. One of the highlights? THEY HAVE A LAUNDRY on the 2nd floor! A GREAT amenity when you're traveling and swimming in the ocean. The downside is, the washer and dryer accept loonies only, and a dryer load is only 45 minute for $2.......only a tiny load would be dried in that time. There's no change machine, but the front desk will supply loonies (but REALLY didn't want to bother the clerk again......). Alternatively, you could try to use bills in the snack/drink machines on the main floor (which will give change IF you can get the machine to accept your bills). The "Continental Plus" breakfast is somewhat lacking the "Plus" part......essentially an assortment of bagels/muffins/bread, cereal, coffee and juice...... There is adequate parking around the hotel and main floor guests don't have to bring their luggage through the lobby.......they have patio doors to the parking area. Traffic around the hotel is clockwise with two blind corners so exercise a little caution. There is a Tim Hortons adjacent to the hotel, which makes weekday traffic in the vicinity VERY busy.....if you want a Tim Hortons coffee, consider opting for a location down the road. If you're planning on transiting Halifax (to Dartmouth) during rush hour, have an idea where you're going......it's very fast moving. Value for the money? On par if you're trying to avoid Downtown Halifax (traffic or hotel fees).

Loads of parking. Quiet area. Regular hotel. Only one staff for check in which meant there was a wait. Everyone was nice though. Room was ok, but we found a used shot glass and a used tissue in a corner of the room... cleaning ataff needs to check every corner... Breakfast was bread, cereal, oats or eggos. Some cold boiled eggs. The room was fairly cheap so we can't complain, but it needs to be thoroughly cleaned.
