Great value stay

Stayed here for a bachelorette party. They were able to accommodate an early check-in for us since we had an event to attend in the early afternoon. The location was great for walking to the bars downtown later at night. The rooms were spacious and comfortable and clean. For being downtown it was also quiet. The blackout curtains were great and so was the AC. We didn’t end up using the pool but it looked clean and not too busy either. We loved the arcade area and the snack shop. The only aspect I was disappointed with was the breakfast bistro. The service wasn’t great. The food was great either. My sausages were cold, we had to send back two plates of cold, soggy hashbrowns and then they completely forgot one of our meals and had already started cleaning up and preparing to close before we had to remind them that we were still waiting on a meal.

The hotel is in very poor condition. The rooms smell. We paid $200+ for a night stay. We were okay with the price thinking we will get a good night sleep after a long drive. Our room was 319, next to an elevator. We could hear anyone walking in the hallway, slamming luggage and opening and closing of elevator. Worst stay. Didn't get a restful sleep. Won't recommend this hotel at all. You are better off staying at holiday inn with better amenities and location at a less cost.

The hotel and area is amazing. The staff were so friendly and attentive to things we asked. The pool and arcade area was great for the kids and the brewery next door great for the parents. The only slight negative thing was the breakfast option is a cafe in the basement where the food portion is small and costly. A mini croissant sandwich cost $5.75 and takes a while if there is a lot of guests because it's cooked on a microwave type oven. We did find a brunch place called Hello Toast and there is a Tim Hortons walkable from the hotel.
