The room was clean and quiet. The bed was very comfortable to sleep in. The location made it super easy to explore on foot Sarnia’s downtown core and enjoy the view of the waterfront.

Hotel rooms were very nice. The walls a little thin could hear someone else’s shower pipes like it was in our room.
