The room was unreasonable small for 2 people, the parking was a nightmare, the fridge in the room didn’t work and after 2 days all of our food spoiled. I don’t think we will stay here again. The worst was the parking

Check in was at 3pm. I arrived at 430pm and my room still wasn’t ready. I was told because there was a late check out. Keep in mind, check out is at 12pm. It was very disappointing as we had to wait for our room to be ready. Also, would have been nice to know that the hotel was under renovations prior to booking. Besides that, room was clean.

Hot tub is replaced by a “deck”.Instead of being fixed or replaced on a cold frigid winter day like yesterday and today it would have been so nice to be able to go in the hot tub. The buffet breakfast at $28 person is garbage consisting of powdered scrambled eggs and soggy sausage. The room itself was ok. For a similar cost I would consider staying at the Westin or Marriott instead next time.

Staff was very helpful. The room was clean and the beds were comfy. Overall a good hotel to stay in especially if you are attending an event at Rogers. I would say that lighting could be improved as I found the room quite dark and there seemed to be some heating issues as hallways were very cold - but not all of them and the room was a bit cold as well. I also ate in the restaurant downstairs- the waitstaff were friendly and the food was good.
