Room was fine but the mattress was horrible. I’ve stayed at this hotel over the past seven years when I travel to Hamilton and this was the worst night at this location. That mattress should be thrown out. By the time I got myself settled and into bed it was after 1:30 AM and it was not an appropriate time to request a room change. I did bring it up to the person at the front desk when I was checking out and they were surprised, but at the same time didn’t even care enough to offer some sort of compensation. A little bit apathetic to be honest. I also was very surprised to see a security guard, walking around the lobby and sitting in the front lobby. If something‘s going on, it’s not a good sign. I will reconsider booking this hotel for future trips.

I will say that the hot tub and pool are usually above average. This stay I was extremely sad to say it didn’t look like the pool/hot tub area had been cleaned. It seemed ok until I got in and noticed the about of dirt around the water’s edge.

Check-in was friendly and efficient. Our room was a little musty but very clean. The pool is wonderful. And we have loved The Hungry Traveler restaurant in the hotel. Excellent food and service and we would stay here again for the delicious homemade meals. It’s not fancy but this hotel has the basics covered which was what we were looking for.
