The staff is almost no existent. there was no access to the office or the room that had vending, guest stay and local information. the room we stayed in had absolutely zero guest information in the room, only one night stand, no wash clothes. There were a few staff sightings, but they would just look at you from a distance and offer no help. I guess this is what happens when big money buys up a lot of small mom and pop motels. I grew up in this area; this place has gone downhill.

There was no front desk staff to check in with or speak to about issues, just a paper with a phone number taped to the door. The mini-fridge stopped working, so our leftovers expired. The shower door fell off while I was in the shower. More minor complaints include the vents being dirty, lightbulbs missing, the broken curtains not closing all the way, and minor aesthetic problems like unpatched holes in the walls where items used to be. It all added up to a very cheap impression. On a more positive note, there was at least hot water, heating, and the sheets were clean and unstained.

Older rooms, very cold ceramic tile floors, bring something warm for your feet! Lakeside. Heat is run through a/c and is ver loud. No decaf coffee but a good assortment of others. No wash cloth. Linens ok. No check in or check out they just left the key in the room when it was ready.

This place looks local, but it is a corporate schill. I booked a room to see the fireworks at the Ice Castle. When the temps forecasted were -20, I requested cancelling because I was told not to be in that weather because it was dangerous for me because I am coming off heart surgery. Bookin.com was in agreement and willing to cancel. They attempted 3 times to get ahold of Gauthiers, no reply. I emailed twice and left 2 voice messages. No reply. It is disturbing to see the continued cruelty all around us. I ate the room rate ( twice as much as the day after) $253. Needless to say, I will never book there again.

Path way to room was not cleared and had 6” of snow in it that you had to walk through. There is no front desk attendant present on site so the flowers I ordered could not be delivered. I was met in the parking lot by a man and was checked in on his phone that had problems loading while we stood outside awkwardly waiting.

Room was comfortable, view is nice. Bathroom is small. Bed a little firm. Room was noisy at night with the heating & random loud noises at night. Also the place is right next to a main road. Parking can be tight on holiday or busy weekends. Overall not bad for a quick weekend getaway.
