We enjoyed the room with a junior suite, pull out couch and king size bed. We were disappointed having our room be amongst a number of other rooms that were together for a sports team. The young girls played in the hall running and yelling. After a while of this we did ask them to stop since no adults with them did. We could still hear them in a room after. A lot of people came and went and stood talking and running in the hall until around 10 pm.

Clean but disappointing!

The TV did not work, the pillows were that high you would need a neck like a graffiti to use them. I wanted to press my pants in the morning, and the iron wasn’t the greatest. The last item was all they offered for fruit was over ripe apples.

While this property met all standard requirements it was average. We were surrounded by noisy neighbours and running children (thin walls) and the pillows were awful making it hard to sleep. The pillows were more like throw pillows and were way too firm.

The front house staff were extremely friendly. I didn’t have the opportunity to deal with any of the housekeeping or maintenance, which was completely fine so I can only give this rating regarding the front and staff. It’s winter time and it was snowing so it was hard to keep the parking lot clear but there was a lot of snow around the car areas and actually coming down onto the property so you have to be very careful when driving in from the main street. They’re doing some painting in the hallways. The pool area was clean.
