Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
I did like the hotel and the staff. I like these old railway hotels, it has a lot of character and I can see that it was once a prestigious hotel. I think the decline of downtown Thunder Bay, like many cities, has made this less favorable, as there are many homeless people about. The restaurant and staff are great too. I would stay again as the view of the harbor is amazing.
