The room was very clean, but very dated almost to the point of being shabby. I would really like a luggage rack so I didn’t have to put my suitcase on the floor. Otherwise, the staff was very pleasant and helpful.

This was once one of the best hotels in Stratford, reasonable priced and had fabulous breakfast. Now you don’t get any breakfast, our toilet didn’t flush, no Netflix and seems rundown with large trucks parked all around. It’s clean enough but now not a bargain price - a shame being we’ve been coming there for over 40 years.

Our room was large, but oddly arranged. The television was 90 degrees from both the bed and the couch, so quite uncomfortable to watch. Had the TV been where the couch was, it would have at least been viewable from the big, comfy bed. The carpet was old and very stained. The couch also was stained. The area around the hotel has lots of services, and it is an easy drive to the Stratford Festival theatres.
