Great location, family friendly hotel.

We stayed for a week. Great location as very close to the waterfront, which is a must. It appeared to be very family friendly as some kids played hockey in the corridor during the week end, which was quite fun to watch! Front desk friendly, although check in took a long time (our credit cards wouldn't be accepted... we tried 3 before questionning the possibility of malfunction of their machine... which was indeed the case. The room for 3 people was large enough, quiet, the reading lamps by the double bed very useful. The kitchenette was basic but enough to make tea or coffee when needed. There is a restaurant and bar attached to the hotel, which was very much appreciated on the night of our arrival. The cleaning staff is adorable and hard working.

Overall, great stay

My room was amazing with a beautiful view however the heat didnt seem to be working properly. They quickly gave me a small heater to help but I also didnt want the employees in thr foyer to freezer (it was -28 outside) with the doors opening frequently. So I gave it back and snuggled in the extra blanket. We enjoyed the pool and hot tub as well. Food at the restaurant was delicious. Due to the heat issues I was given a viucher for our breakfast as well. That went above and beyond for me. Overall I enjoyed my stay and got the relaxation I was looking for.

Overall a good stay

The location is perfect. Walking distance to just about everything. The room we had was the king with separately living and it was great. Loved the separation and the room size was large. The bed was very comfortable and the shower , with rainfall shower head was awesome.

Much too expensive for what I got and I think it's awful that you charge $2.50 for a bottle of water that should be provided for free for the cost of the hotel room
