I couldn't figure out the "Smart" TV in the evening... wanted to watch the first World Series game ... called the desk. The young man on the desk was very nice but couldn't do anything to help -- he didn't understand the TV either. So I missed the game. Its nice to say "call the desk if you have any problems" but what's the point if the person can't help? Someone needs to be available who understands these TVs.

Great place to stay in a fantastic town to visit
Fantastic stay in Room 10 with enclosed veranda and view of the harbour in a corner room with windows on 2 sides. Room was spacious and bed was comfortable. The Inn was in an excellent location and free parking close by on the street. Really enjoyed the room and the town. Get 15% discount on the Walking Tour if you mention the Rum Runner Inn which was a highlight of the visit.

The whole town is awesome with the bright colours of shops and hotels. And RR Inn blends in well with decor. Nice walk around town up and down steep hills. RRInn is clean and convenient and the view of the sea is awesome.

OMG. That was our honest reaction when we walked into this room. We were lucky enough to book one of the suites that came with a sunporch that overlooked the waterfront and harbor, and OH MY THAT VIEW! If we weren't determined to walk around Lunenburg to see the sites and grab dinner, we would have been happy as clams to cuddle up with a bottle of wine and some snacks on that warm, sunny porch for the entire evening (especially perfect since it had been a cold, windy few days outside!) I'll dream of that room and view for weeks to come!

In the heart of Lunenburg.
The Rumrunner in couldn’t be more perfectly located on the waterfront of Lunenburg. The room was spacious, very comfortable, with a wonderful balcony and tremendous views. I think the only negative was the tarp on the roof from a previous storm came down and impinged on our side view after a serious windstorm. Tim and his daughter Haley were very friendly and helpful.

Call hotel to inquire of your room view!!
Hotel is in a great location & very clean. My only complaint was that upon check in, they were not forthcoming about the roof tarp hanging down over a portion of my scenic waterfront window. They were aware of this, and housekeeping told me about another room also affected. If you are paying more $$ to stay in that type of room. MY ADVICE is to call ahead and make sure it’s been fixed, if not AVOID room #8. (Note* housekeeping said room #10 was also affected with tarps in their window)

Great location in the heart of town. Had the veranda room which was very nice to sit overlooking harbor. Parking is not provided and a little hard to find. Beds not the most comfortable. Staff very nice.
