Ideally situated property directly on the St. Lawrence River. Balcony overlook to scenic views of adjacent islands and boat traffic. Within walking distance of dining and shopping. Rooms are updated, spacious, and comfortable. The king bed was very comfortable. We had a 2nd floor corner room with a side window in addition to the front facing water view window for a light and bright interior room. The staff was verry inviting and helpful, and although we arrived early our room was ready to check in.

Great location and amazing view of Boldt castle

Great location and amazing view. Clean and easy to access all the great stuff. Definitely looked like they attempted to renovate the place, but def missed some details. Like rust around the frame of that ceiling tiles. People was definitely great during check in, but the house keeping was okay. Did basic cleaning and layout the sheets, but didn’t even fluff the pillow or tuck the sheets. Maybe it’s just me being picky but never seen that jot done before.
