Winterlude Delight

We had another good stay at this property. It’s our goto spot for Winterlude. Only concern was the elevator was out of order one morning and required us to walk down and back up 8 stories for breakfast. Despite this random issue, we will continue to use this each family day weekend.

There was a hockey tournament and a bunch of teenagers took over the pool, were partying loudly, going back and forth to each other's rooms until 3am, and trying to open our door. Obviously they were drunk. My wife had to open the door and ask them to quiet down.

I paid up front through Expedia and was charged again at the property. Many attempts to get a refund on the double payment over the course of two months failed (in person, phone and email). Very upset and will not stay here again despite the fantastic location

Business stay , very friendly ans helpful staff. Building although older, very well kept and a great location. Kitchenette was super and clean and had most of the utensils needed to cook your own meals. The only issue was that the housekeeping staff kept forgetting to leave me coffee for my morning coffee. Not a big deal, they always had some at the front desk.

The front desk staff were very friendly Ana helpful. The cleaning staff didn’t seem very interested in cleaning the room after my wife got up around noon. They would give us coffee but had to rest them to vacuum the room and never did replace towels. Not sure why this was an issue as everything was much better the previous week.

Had a kitchenette unit that was very efficient . The rooms are very easy to control the heat and not dry. An older building and could use some upgrades but overall happy with the hotel and will definitely be staying again.
