Only one elevator operating. Advertised check in is 3 staff states it’s 4. The search I did for free parking , brought up this location. I was informed that there’s a fee for parking.

We stayed here four years ago. It was lovely. The property has fallen into disrepair. DO NOT STAY HERE!!!! The xterior Locks Are broken on the lower level. We had to walk up the ramp, through the ice and snow, in the dark, to go in the front lobby entrance. The exterior pool door was open to the world. Our solid wood room door was cracked and wood was exposed. The room was nasty!!! Gum stuck to the wall, holes n the wall, broken laminates throughout, COLD WATER, not Luke warm - COLD!!!! 2° difference between full cold and full hot. Broken tile in the bathroom, missing tile, a fungus project behind the toilet, missing shelves, the bathroom mirror was literally falling apart, the security latch on the door was with in a tap of falling out of the steel door frame. This place is a pile of garbage, when the security had to walk me to my room, and try to open the door, because the door took 27 times for the key card to work, he acknowledged that the entire hotel was in a state of disrepair And shrugged it off

Horrible! Broken room door locks. Inoperable exterior admission by key card, had to walk up 1 flight to the front of the hotel - up a ramp in the snow. Front desk and security acknowledged stuff is not working properly in the hotel. We stayed here 3 years ago and it was lovely. I think football and rugby teams stay here. It is very rough on the edges throughout the entire hotel. I would never stay here again.

The room smelled moldy, the bathroom had mold in the shower, mold on bathroom tile. As I have allergies my eyes were swollen, had sore throat, stuffed up did not make a fun planned stay in the city pleasant and left town early due to symptoms from stay.

I don't like the fact of the parking situation. The front of the building is too clustery with people trying to check in and get through is just a cluster mess. I got charged for parking and the gate in the back parking lot was open for anyone to just park in there as I was charged a daily amount to park in their lot
