Service was awesome, but the location was the biggest part of the price. The room could use updating and there weren't many complimentary services, I.E. breakfast or laundry even though the promotions stated it as such.

Over priced hotel , outdated decor. Kind of clean.very basic. we checked out and My wife forgot her bathing suit in the room, then We called the next day, and they said they couldn’t find it housekeeping threw it out. but we know she left it in the bathroom hanging behind the door. That is poor service.

Disappointed stay for romantic weekend
Hotel is outdated. Specifically booked room for the jetted tub, jets didn’t work. No a/c in room, WiFi barely worked, pool was out of service for part of stay, poor lighting throughout, bathroom setup just not functional. Staff was the most positive part of the stay. Wouldn’t consider staying here again for the cost spent.

Disappointed
Booked a room with a spa tub jacuzzi - it did not work. For the amount of money paid for this room, it is disappointing to say the least. Front desk offered free breakfast buffet or a 10% refund. Disappointing as this was the whole reason we booked this room. The hotels gym and pool were down also with no prior notice to guests ahead of time. The room had a strong odour and there was no a/c.

Hotel was very nice but the pool was closed due to a leak. And we stayed just 1 night and was looking forward to a swim. Also the toilet was way too close to the counter top. Making it difficult to wipe!!

We had to book last minute, and they had availability. A little further from all the shopping, like 20 mins walking than we thought.

Great service in the hotel and Keg restaurant. Could do with new beds as the beds in my room were quite hard and uncomfortable. Otherwise amazing stay. This is my second time at this property and I will come back.

Hotel Staff not helpful upon arrival
The initial reception experience upon arrival was not pleasant nor polite. With my wife waiting on the street near the hotel’s main door, I went in and asked for a luggage cart. The first employee was rude and said, “go ask reception, I don’t know what luggage you have!”. When I asked one of the reception staff, he also rudely stated, “go and get it from the parking lot in the basement!” and walked away. With difficulty, I took the elevator and after searching found a dirty cart and brought it up. While checking in, we noticed that there were a couple of luggage carts in side of the door not clearly visible. When I told the reception staff this experience, the response was “He did not know and was incorrect” and the difficulty we experienced was brushed off. Nesa Joseph
