Property is being used to house the influx of refugees and immigrants to the area. It’s basically a very busy downtown apartment complex with the limits of its facility being tested. Staff was awesome, hotel was nice. Had to wait 10 plus minutes everytime we used the elevator and there were always large groups congregating in common areas and entrances/exits. Not what we expected when staying at a higher tier, waterfront property

Great location, reasonably priced. Only thing I would change is the TV. Very limited channels on a non-smart TV. Bring your streaming device!

1) we found we would NOT get any Best Western points because we made our booking through Expedia 2) there is no parking on the hotel lot - had to drive to a parking garage and haul our bags 100 metres or more across a street and up to the hotel back door 3) this is the first Best Western we have ever stayed in that did NOT offer a free breakfast 4) nice easy char with a side table in the room but no light nearby - useless after dark for reading We will NOT be staying here again, or booking hotels through Expedia
