This place was about what I expected for the money. However it suppose to be a non smoking hotel, I even had to sign an agreement that I wouldn't smoke in the room, but the room stunk like second hand smoke.

Good place at an affordable price

A great spot right in the middle of Granby. The staff was friendly and spoke French and English. The room was clean and comfortable. The breakfast was adequate, with waffles, bagels, yogurt and hard boiled eggs. The coffee was very weak, really my only complaint. Good place at an affordable price!

Nice little hotel. We book the economy room which was half basement. It’s ok but it was very dark. Not a lot of light in the room. The room was clean and didn’t smell like mold like others mentioned

Upon entering the room the bathroom door was locked. The hallways could use a vacuuming... The pool area is nice. The restaurant on site was open until 9pm and refused t seat us at 8:25pm. The Breakfast is good. It was conveniently local to the Granby Zoo. We would stay there again and use it for what it is.

The room is adequate but it has old dark furnishings and is dingy. Our 3rd floor room's sliding door, leading to a shared balcony, would barely slide open. The bed was supposedly a queen but seemed to be a double. Old mattress, needs updating. For 1 night, and a cheap rate, it was adequate. Good parking, safe. Quiet room. Breakfast was better than expected - advertised as a continental breakfast but had a little mire, standard hotel fare.
