Very clean hotel. The room, lobby and breakfast rooms were all well maintained. breakfast was really good with omelettes, bacon, sausage, hash browns, plus the usual continental breakfast stuff. We didn’t use the pool but it looked clean as well. Breakfast service staff are very friendly. This is one of the nicest hotels I’ve found in Thunder Bay.
