I arrived @ 7Pm after a 15 hour drive, walked in the lobby and there were two people behind the desk. The gentleman was helping a guest, the second one whose name is Car, was chatting with a coworker about the nachos that coworker had just ordered from Casey’s. I stood there for a minute or two while they finish their conversation. The coworker walked away when Car looked up at me and said “Sup” I assume that meant that she was ready to check me in, I hadn’t booked yet so I asked her if the price direct was better than the price I would get on Expedia. She told me that Expedia was a rip off always and ask me what kind of room I wanted. I asked for some pricing to compare and Expedia turned out to be $60 cheaper today. So I booked on Expedia. No problem there. I askedHow do I get to 502 she then pointed me to the elevator said between the pillars, hit the button. I am in Sault Ste. Marie about 15 times a year. I have always stayed at the Quattro until today. I also book rooms for my clients when I’m here as they are all from out of the country and working in agriculture means I have to bring them to the field as I can’t bring the field to them. It was just me this time. I would be embarrassed if one of my clients told me this story. Where I put them up as a reflection on me, very unprofessional, and not at all great service.

The hot tub was out of order without notification that it would be out of order. The pool attendant was very particiular about who was in the pool area and was strict on what the children were doing. The rules are not posted on the website of what people can and cannot do, and people needed to sign a form stating the rules, however, other children were running up and down the hallway at all hours of the night. The phone didn't work to be able to call the front desk to let them know this.

Disliked: Amenities
When we arrived we were informed that the pool, hot tub and sauna were not available for the entire three nights. This is not acceptable. The only reason why we chose this property is to use the hot tub and sauna due to our chronic pain. It was a real disappointment and they would not reward us in any way except a few free breakfasts.

Very disappointing stay. The pool closure was spun as a short term, just happened, “might be fixed tomorrow” situation, but with time it became clear it’s been an ongoing issue. With no notice of a weeks long pool issue until check-in our hands were tied and no effort was made to compensate. The hotel is a bit run down and dated, not bad but nothing special. We literally only chose it because of the pool. Issues, understandably, arise but the lack of honesty and transparency surrounding the main attraction to this hotel is frustrating. Would encourage future travelers to avoid until the pool is functioning as usual.
