The main thing that kept this stay from being five star is that too many of the guests allowed their children to make noise and run the halls late at night, not sure how to solve but did disturb is both nights until after 12am.Perhaps thicker noise cancelling doors and a hot tub in pool area . Otherwise was a great stay.

Other than the pool, 10/10 stay

The beds were comfortable, the hotel was central to downtown, and the staff was amazing. The only downside was, while the pool room itself was warm, the actual pool was COLD!

Disliked: Staff & service
Due to weather and road closings we were unable to attend. We asked for a partial refund and we were refused. We had no control of weather and the closings. After repeated attempts the hotel. refused. We have stayed at his site in the past and loved it !! Truly Hotel.com stated they made several attempts to contact hotel to investigate and they stated that they couldn't get thru. I tried 3 times and got thru twice twice. Again ....the place was nice to stay.

Great stay. Staff goes above and beyond. Only disappointment was the $22 breakfast buffet. Very limited selection and not very good quality. Other than that I would definitely recommend this hotel with stunning waterfront views

Nothing wrong with the hotel itself, however they need to figure out offsite parking for buses. Large tour bus starting it engine and running for an hour 20 feet below our window at SIX AM was a bit much!!!

I stayed one night in room 527. Pros: clean bathroom, quiet floor, comfortable bed. Cons: hair in bed sheets, dirty carpet, loud heater, dove products (you should source local/Canadian producers), dirty hallways, aged and tired looking hotel, overpriced surface parking

No extra roll of toilet paper in bathroom. Air conditioning fan kept going in and off every minute or less despite turning the whole system off to try to alleviate the problem. Eventually unplugged the fan at the wall and kept the whole system off. Was not able to have a decent nights sleep due to this problem.
