Beds excellent, very clean facility. Mornings saw free decent coffee or tea. Knowing this ahead of time bring breakfast with you or purchase in Port Perry on route. Cafeteria very clean with microwave and nice outside patio, both small. Port Perry offers excellent dining locations such as Pickles & Olives Bistro, Marwans Global Bistro, etc. just less than 15 minutes away. Not a gambler or might have rated ithigher.

Great, Hotel. Food at the restaurant was average. We don’t gamble so I did not use the casino. It is a distance away from Port Perry if you want better food.

Unfortunately I was situated on the first floor Room 107. There was an extreme amount of noise for most of the night. Maybe people coming in from the bar, hanging out in the lobby or the hallways. I was in town for a workshop and looking forward to a nice evening of rest and recoup. Was woken up multiple times in the night. The room was clean, so that was nice.
