The staff were wonderful. So friendly and nothing was too much trouble. I was there for a funeral and coming back to the hotel after some stressful days was very comforting. The food in the restaurant was excellent. My adorable waitress, Jane, said I hope you come back in happier circumstance. I hope so too!

Comfortable but needs some tweaks.

Hotel has its flaws and has it's positives. Cannot fault the staff. Staff are amazing. Really friendly and make you smile. Food seems to be microwaved. Comes out as fast as you say your order and it boiling hot. Rooms are dated but comfortable, dust was falling out of the vent in the bathroom which is something you don't need whilst brushing your teeth. The over lay and cushions on the bed were stained. Lovely touch with the biscuits.

Openly false advertising

Terrible experience with this hotel. They advertise laundry facilities, but do not have one. When we brought this up, they rudely told us we could leave (at 9pm) for a refund. They clearly have no intent on fixing the false advertising. Hotels.com support was very helpful, and made a note that the hotel said they would compensate us for the lost amentity but DID NOT do so (Abbatsford staff lied to hotels.com staff). Very hot and stuffy hotel. No air con and only a very small window (with storm window blocking) for airflow. We WILL NOT stay here again and recommend staying elsewhere.
