Very Poor Experience
The Silver Glen Suites appear to be an office building that has been converted into apartments, with at least the upstairs units being used as "suites" or overnight lodging. From what I could tell, only one of the several apartments was being rented to a family below us. The other upstairs "suites" unit even had the door wide openso that from the deck behind our unit (nice view of the valley below) you could see into the unit--nasty in there!

Beautiful!
The setting here is gorgeous. It is set on the highest hill in the highland country of Antigonish, NOva Scotia and the prices are very reasonable. The management is a bit disorganized (people answer the phone who don't know how much it is or if it's available and can't find out) but don't let it stop you. Get hold of Jeanine the owner and book your stay. They're suites and we had a double with three bathrooms, two bedrooms,kitchen and sitting room, huge wrap-around deck for $99 C per night. Clean, funky and beautiful.
