Clean but poorly managed.

Great room but had to watch TV from downloads from my iphone no one to help with accessing free TV. Would have been nice to have bottle of lotion . No one working front desk had to call phone number. Front door locked had to be let in by customer in lobby. Never heard of no one working front desk. Nice clean but being operated as if on a very minimal budget. Not. Tea bags for tea not individually wrapped. No coffee .

Disliked: Staff & service
Check in at 9 p.m. was great, but we just grabbed the key & left for supper. Upon return at 10:40 p.m., key did not open our room door. There was no staff available until morning. We waited 30 min., called all numbers provided, but no help arrived. We had to leave & find another hotel. I asked for a refund the next morning & was declined. I am told to contact you for a refund. Never entered room.

Clean and Functional

Clean, comfortable bed. The desk is not able to be used if you want to watch TV and work. The huge TV is hung on the wall and is very nice, but the narrow desk with basic plastic chair is right underneath the TV. If you are okay with using a laptop on your lap on the bed, it works. Also, there is no coffee in the room or in the lobby, but there is an A & W next door and a Tim Horton's a block away.

Make a different choice :-(

Check-in begins at 3 pm. We tried to check in at that time, so we could drop off our luggage and go hiking locally. The front doors were locked; nobody around. So we do our hike and come back at 5 pm. A young lady says she is "just watching" the front desk for manager, and she doesn't actually know how to process check ins. Tells us to come back in an hour. So we wander around town, and come back. After waiting 20 more minutes, a very surly manager shows up. He checks us in, but tells us room hasn't been cleaned yet. Tells us to come back in an hour. So we cool our heels at the fast-food place next door, and watch as a cleaning lady-with her own vacuum-drives up and leaves after a little while. So at 7:20 pm, we can finally get into our room. Nobody at front desk then; and nobody at front desk in morning; just put key cards in a box. There were no vending machines. What we infer from all this is that they cannot afford maid service except in rooms that will actually be used that night; and that they didn't pay the vendors so the drink/snack machines got pulled. Room was threadbare. Only 2 pillows, both very small and very lumpy. This hotel will probably be out of business soon. I noticed that from the time we made our reservation (7 mo. in advance) to our stay, their reviews have dropped drastically. Sadly, there are few other choices in this town...but din't choose this one!
