Very nice but don't push your luck on this survey. I don't like surveys that tell me I have to say more. Don't beg.

Pleasant Despite Some Inconveniences

I stayed in the hotel during the recent Skate Canada (figure skating event). Hotel rooms across the city were sparce so I chose this hotel out of necessity than anything else. However, the staff was great and my stay was nice. However, there are some issues. They had water issues one day, but to their credit, they fixed it as soon as they could and provided free bottled water to residents. The gym was good (although it took awhile to figure out how to turn on the treadmill), free breakfast was fine, and wifi was excellent. I had issues with my tv. Any channel which had HD (a lot of them had it) just did not work. Although close to the Downtown, you have to walk along the Harbour Path, which is nice during the day but very creepy at night. And you have to cut through ripped torn fences to get to the hotel. Don't go alone.

I just stayed at this hotel this past weekend. When we entered the room, we notices that the carpet outside the bathroom was wet and there was a smell ( thought the smell was normal lol ) , told the guy at the front desk and he just said they must've cleaned the carpet. Didn't understand why it was only wet in front of the bathroom ?? Next day we left for Taekwondo tournament and when we got back at around 2pm, our door wasn't closed so anyone could've gone in our room and stole something. Then there was the smell, it was worst than ever... it smelled like human waste ...Not very impresses, I go downstairs and the same guy was working and when I tell him this, he asked me what I wanted to do..as this has never happened to me before I said I don't know so he says all I can do is put you in another room so this is what I did.... not very impressed with my stay!!!!

Nice

Pros: Free breakfast, Free Internet, Quiet, iron and laundry, washing machines with coins, very clean, mouthwash shoeshine towel & makeup remover @ bath, swimming pool
Cons: the heating system was noisy and old, the view from the room was the highway
The room was very nice and clean. The hotel is no far from the center and has its own free parking. The breakfast was average, however they had very good pancakes. It was nice to be received with the newspaper and a couple of chocolates in the room, it's a small detail that always makes my day. There's a McDonalds at the corner but we had to go out with the car to find good restaurants.

Always enjoy staying here.

Pros: Free breakfast, Quiet
Cons: Poor breakfast
Always enjoy staying here, and access to the hotel from the highway is excellent. Ease of parking is also appreciated. Man behind the counter always friendly and welcoming. Our only complaint with the hotel is that it's overpriced, and the lack of food available on site. One has to get in the car after arriving and go somewhere to seek dinner. How wonderful it would be to be within walking distance to something, anything where there is food. Or maybe some coupons for local places??? Breakfast is just so- so. Would love more fresh fruit and better choices for everything else. But this is true of almost all H.I. Expresses. Not much to choose from...especially since I am allergic to eggs. Rooms are comfy and we are glad the elevator got fixed. However, it reeks of chlorine from the pool. I absolutely will stay there in the future, but would love to see better breakfasts.
