Despite the dated exterior, the interior has been renovated and is very cozy and modern. We rented a king suite on the 3rd floor and found it very classy and well laid out with a very modern look and feel. The bed was huge and comfortable and the ammenties were just right.

Nice older hotel, outstanding front desk staff. There were some vagrants in the area who made things a little unsettling at times, but it’s not worse than any other city in Canada nowadays. Breakfast is $7, but we did not stay for it. No luggage carts which would have been nice as we are an older couple travelling with a lot of stuff. In general though, very clean and comfortable for an older hotel. The bathroom was nicely redone and the shower was outstanding - best so far on our trip. Price was reasonable and competitive. Rating overall - Very good.

Check in and out staff were wonderful. We were in a recently renovated room. Pool and hot tub were great after a long day of driving. Restaurants available across the street. We did not take advantage of the continental breakfast. Would stay here again.
