We booked a queen room with a hot tub but when we got there we were told that it was "under renovation" and so a regular room was provided at a discount. This put a damper on the weekend since we were really looking forward to the hot tub. If you book anything be sure to also call the hotel to confirm the room.

Hotels.com how can you support a business like this that has no consideration for their guests. Please hold these Establishments Responsible. I will never stay here again !and i will let everyone I know. What happen to me

The front desk area looks like someone is living in it. Dirty dishes and garbage all over. The room was gross. Dried urine on the floor in the bathroom. There was not a clean surface anywhere. I slept in my clothes because of the whole non-hygenic vibe. There was no hot water coming from the tao in the bathroom just from the bath tub. The towels had dirt marks on them. The only reason i didn't leave was because it is right across from the olg stage. My destination.

On checking in I was not given a password for the internet.There was only one plug in the room, no plug in the washroom for my husband's shaver or to plug a nite light in. The room was cold even set at 90. The bathroom was freezing, you'd have to run the water forever to get hot water, and to make the bathroom warm enough to get wet and not shiver. Such a waste of water. I chose not to shower as I knew I wouldn't be able to get warm. The TV was not checked to make sure it was working and there was no instruction to how to operate the cable. I was hoping since it is so close to falls view casino that I could save money by staying here. Maybe in the summer when it's warmer. They need to put a door sweep on the door as there is a real gap letting light and cold air in.

RUN. DO NOT BOOK. I would park my vehicle here but that's about it. My partner and I booked a room here, tried to stay here and couldn't. The room was filthy dirty from top to bottom. Glass surfaces dirty top and bottom, some type of red substance (likely blood) on the wall in the bathroom that I had to clean up, the tap in the sink was so loose it sprayed water all over the bathroom. There was a 1" gap under the door letting cold air in. The heat did not work. The bed linen was old and not the freshest. The hot water took at least 3 minutes to get luke warm. If you like throwing back to the 80's and being the remote control for the TV like you did as a kid, then you would love this room. But wait, there's more! The baseboards haven't been cleaned since 1987, the snap together vinyl floor was water damaged by the window, the couch was like you were surfing the biggest wave and the bed was the most uncomfortable thing you could ever lay your body on. The staff....Oh what a joy they were. The manager was extremely snarky, condescending and downright ignorant. He immediately got defensive and angry when I told him politely the problems we had with our stay. He asked questions like, "Have you ever stayed in a hotel before"? Yes, as a matter fact I have and this isn't one. The manager is so wound up in his delusions, thinking his beds and sheets are the same as the highest end hotels in the industry. This place should be condemned and bulldozed down
