We only stayed one night but the room was good. We didn’t have the breakfast as there are so many alternatives. Hotel is well situated and easy to find. Dwayne (I hope I spelled his name right) was extremely friendly and helpfully.

The staff was great. Especially Fatima at the front desk. She was very helpful, patient and accommodating. Our room, however, was disappointing. It was so small there was barely enough space to walk / move around the beds, the TV service was terrible (almost all channels did not work), one of the coffee cups was dirty, and on the morning we checked out the electric circuit breaker blew and we had to pack in the dark using our phones as flashlights.

Everything was great except I booked this hotel specifically because they said they had onsite parking. I messaged them on more than one occasion to confirm that I was booked in for the parking but no one got back to me. When I arrived and asked about the parking, they said “oh I’m sorry we’re fully booked up”. So I was very upset about that - but what can you do? I ended up driving around for two hours until I finally found a parking lot with space, it cost me a fortune and I had to hike across a bridge and down a ways in the freezing rain and cold back to the hotel. So that put a damper on things (no pun intended). But if you don’t need parking, the hotel is fantastic! And if you do need parking on site - make sure you get confirmation about your booking before you confirm your stay, especially if you’re paying a non refundable rate. All part of the adventure I suppose!
