Staff were excellent. Service was top notch. Room was very clean. I always forget these old Fairmont properties are small and the bathrooms are minuscule. River view was great but I wish the hotel would have informed me of the construction and jackhammering outside my window at 8am until 5pm. Very hard to work in the room.
