This use to be ‘the’ hotel to stay at over 40 years ago but now although it claims to be recently renovated we would not take our shoes off unless going to bed and would not shower as the bathroom was not at all up to standards with a torn foam toilet seat and stained carpets throughout

Check in was easy. Dropped stuff off in room and left. Came back that night to main doors locked and we couldn’t get in the hotel without calling a number and waiting for someone to come and open the door (it was cold and raining boooo). They were nice and friendly - it just sucked we had no idea the front doors would be locked after such a long day. Got up to our room and opened the hide a bed to find broken chips on the blanket … no big deal it happens … opened the bed to put child to sleep - huge yellow stain as if someone had peed on top of the blanket because the bed hadn’t been slept in. There is no phone in the room and no one at the front desk so we had to google the number and call to ask for diff sheets. We got some diff sheets and did not want to switch rooms (that was offered to us but it was late and we were so tired) and the man who brought the diff bedding was very nice. I am just suggesting that staff check/change the beds even tho they don’t look like they have been slept in. The bathroom needs serious updates. However I think these are new owners so those will happen in time - bathroom was clean. Hotel room was clean. Bed was extremely comfortable and I can’t remember much about the tv other than past guests stayed logged in on streaming accounts so we watched some things on that for a few minutes before we went to bed.

The staff is very friendly and go way beyond usual service. We arrived early for our stay, but we’re welcomed in. I asked if there was a laundry I could use and Andrea said she would see we had it done. She arrived at our door, picked up the laundry and did the wash for us! We were very impressed. We would recommend a stay here.

This property is very old and unkept, resulting in an unpleasant overnight stay: - room smelled musty and smoky upon entry; - window was dirty and had build-up of condensation between window pains, so unable to see clearly out the window; - window did not have option to open so unable to get fresh air into the room during our stay; - old, worn, dirty rugs; - burn holes on chair; - dark discolouration/appearance of mold growth along grout of tub tiles, as well as bacterial growth on ceiling.

Sadly, in the morning we woke up and discovered bed bugs of some sort on our pillows and under the blankets, at that point we gathered and flushed eight of them down the toilet. We had to check further and found food bits under the couch cushions, shaking the cushions, we were treated with a couple more bugs, there was not even blankets on the hide a bed matress. Animal and human hair on the queen bed top blanket. Very poor experience!
