What guests think

Reviews of Sunflower Guest Suites depict a characterful heritage house where many guests praise clean, comfortable rooms and welcoming hosts, but others report inconsistent service, difficult check‑ins, and maintenance or cleanliness lapses in certain rooms and shared areas.

The location is frequently described as central and walkable, near the waterfront and dining options. Rooms range from spacious and nicely furnished with very comfortable beds to small or sloped spaces, sometimes with noise from pipes or dated furniture. Multiple reviews note that breakfast is minimal or absent, more a basic self‑serve setup than a traditional B&B. Expect a simple stay in an old house that works best for short visits if full services are not essential.

Host is very friendly and welcoming. It was very clean and the a/c works very well. Enjoyed sitting on wrap around porch. Property needs some updating including the decor and furniture (arm chair in room is ancient and not usable. The grounds have a lot of potential but will need work.

A beautiful old building that the owners are still renovating. They are doing a great job. The top floor room has a pretty steep set of stairs so if your mobility challenged ask for a room on the lower floors.

Mary the innkeeper was very friendly and helpful. She greeted us on arrival and showed us to our room. The room we had was spacious and the bed was very comfortable. The location is very walkable and parking was plentiful. Would definitely stay again if in the area.

Old property. The inkeeper was very nice. No breakfast. They do have coffee, cups and a fridge. But no sink to fill the coffee machine. Close to everything in Summerside. Not ideal if you stay for more than a night. But great for an overnight and a visit beautiful Summerside PEI.

The owners have spent a good deal of money on refurbishing the building and everything is clean, tidy and functional. The room is perfectly adequate for a night but I wouldn’t want to stay longer. Bathroom is small, toiletries provided are limited. What lets the place down is the promise of breakfast. This is not a typical B&B. There is no dining room, ‘breakfast’ is a loaf of bread in the fridge, a toaster, a small amount of jam and a yoghurt. Coffee was all gone and the staff didn’t know how to make more, there are no glasses for juice, no butter or spread, no cereal or hot options, and you have to take everything to your room. Do yourselves a favour and drop the breakfast is you can’t provide an authentic B&B service. Overall,I’d say this place is a little overpriced for what’s offered.

Property is very old and feels like it could use a LOT of TLC. There was insufficient parking for the guests so I parked on the grasss. The interior is old and dated. There was a spider in my room, and the AC (window unit kept turning on/off). The door did not appropriately lock. However, you're in the heart of cavendish and a 10 minute drive from PEI beach, so that's a nice convenience

Beautiful house and lovely owner. Our room was very spacious, clean and well decorated. The bathroom was a little small but still had a full size tub and shower and it was exceptionally clean. My only complaint and it’s a small one is the height of the bed. I’m 5’3 and I felt like I needed a stool to climb into the bed! That being said my 6’4” husband loved it! Overall it was a beautiful stay.

This facility is the worst I’ve stayed in. As for a b&b there was no breakfast and a filthy shared kitchen with permanent residents. Room was dirty so were moved to another which was no better, microwave outside the door for anyone to use which was disgusting. No garbage can in room except for a small one in the bathroom. This is our third booking through Expedia on our trip and all fallen way below expectations. Tonight we are in our fourth booking with Expedia and even though the hotel is quaint we are not impressed. We met another group of people that were checking out of the sunflower when we were checking in and they were also disgusted with the rooms as well as two other couples that were there while we were there. Most of the tourist sites were closed for the season, The only memorable part was the beautiful boardwalk

When we arrived at our room, it was not very clean. The garbage had not been emptied prior and there was fingernail clippings all over the bathroom counter. There was only 1 roll of toilet paper that only had about 20% left on it. When we ran out, I had to call various numbers several times before anyone picked up. It then still took them approximately 40 minutes to bring more toilet paper to our room. We just needed somewhere to sleep and it served its purpose for that, but otherwise I would not book again based on cleanliness and service.

I enjoyed this stay. Not one for B&B's but it worked out well. The room itself was great. If you're in for the night, it's superb. The bathroom was better than most mid-range hotels. Plus it was privatized. The room is remodeled, which becomes more than obvious when you have to walk uphill to the other side of the room. It's an old house. Caused the bed to be slanted, so I'm apparently the Princess and the Pea, so there's that. Friendly staff. Easiest check-in and check out ever. Very simple.

We stayed in a spacious room in a good location—convenient for getting around. However, our experience was disrupted by loud noises coming from the water pipes early every morning around 5–6 AM. It was loud enough to wake us up each day, even we are deep sleepers.

This was the worst experience in over 50 years of travelling for business and leisure! Upon arriving, the building was locked and appeared to be unoccupied. No response to knocking and doorbell ringing. I called the number as per the note on the door. This number was “no longer in service”. I called the establishment's phone number as posted in Expedia. The call went through to voicemail, where I left a detailed message. No response. 15 minutes later I left another message….no response. Fortunately, a resident of the building arrived and let us in. She does not work for the establishment but she searched and found us an unlocked room that was clean. After several attempts by her to contact the owner, finally she was able to get her. The owner said the room that we were in was fine and that someone would stop in to check on us. This never happened. After several calls for assistance, none were responded to. I would suggest Expedia delist this establishment!!!

The lady does not know what hospitality means. No more breakfast included because she says people were being to difficult, so no sit down kitchen for us, just frozen bread and some cheese in the fridge. No glasses in the washroom, etc… I got a double bed although I ask for a queen but I did not say anything after hearing her complain about people who complain…
