Pool area in disrepair. Hot tub broken again. Carpets filthy. Broken tile in elevator (safety issue). Only one facecloth in room. Parking lot needs to be swept. Staff at check-in extremely slow. Rough clientele. Used to be the nicest hotel in the Soo and has gone extremely downhill.

The outdoor whirlpool was amazing but it helps the weather was nice. Glad for good weather because the indoor whirlpool was under maintenance. Booked room for 3 adults and 1 child and only 1 wash rag and 3 towels were provided before we asked for more. The room had a stench to it when we first walked in, then we just got used to it.
