A relatively clean building, but the smell of the room was very overpowering. I didn’t know if it was because it was cleaned well or if it was covering up a smell. The age of the amenities are showing. The bed was comfortable. It was a bit difficult to regulate the room temperature. It was decent for the price and close to McMaster Children’s Hospital, but I would opt to stay elsewhere next time.

We opted for the suite with a kitchenette. The rooms were both huge and nicer than I had anticipated! Comfortable beds with plenty of pillows. Both the main room and the bedroom had separate televisions, which made for a relaxing night for both my teenagers and myself. The kitchenette was stocked with enough dishes for a few people and we saved money with a quick pasta dinner. They really enjoyed the lovely pool. Oh, and the staff were great.

we have stayed at Visitors Inn many times with no complaints. This time, we booked a non smoking suite for two nights. Upon checking in , the room had an obvious smoking smell , as if it had been smoked in frequently. We let management know right away and again upon leaving.
