Its a decent hotel. Quiet, mostly clean. Needed to be cleaned behind the bedside table (popcorn and dirty) bedding is older and threadbare in spots. It was comfortable nonetheless. Convenient having a restaurant too. Food there is good, wait staff are friendly and attentive.

Last minute stay, Expedia listing was accurate and affordable. Hotel is situated on a lovely small lake with beautiful view. Room was spacious and clean. Continental breakfast was perfect for what we needed. Staff was friendly and accommodating. We will definitely stay again during snowmobile season.
