Guest Reviews:

- "Very clean and we felt safe" - "Location, easy" - "The space is charming, comfortable, and clean. The location is ideal if you love to walk and enjoy beautiful scenery. The common areas are inviting and everything needed is at the ready." - "First and foremost, the Canalside Inn welcomes dogs, providing little pet amenities in the room! That is hard to find in the Rehoboth hotel/inn choices. Its location across from the main canal in a residential neighborhood behind makes for a quiet scenic location. And it is an easy walk, less than a mile, into the main street shops & restaurants area downtown. This particular January stay was very off-season (we were the only ones there!) with lots of snow but our golden retriever loved it! It is not a big place in terms of rooms which is also nice. And it has a nice downstairs guest kitchen/den like area to hang out in. All other pet-friendly options are miles away on the main highway."
