Beds excellent, very clean facility. Mornings saw free decent coffee or tea. Knowing this ahead of time bring breakfast with you or purchase in Port Perry on route. Cafeteria very clean with microwave and nice outside patio, both small. Port Perry offers excellent dining locations such as Pickles & Olives Bistro, Marwans Global Bistro, etc. just less than 15 minutes away. Not a gambler or might have rated ithigher.

Our room was spacious and clean with an excellent bed. Staff was great Only minor complaint is that Foxnews is not part of your TV package. You have CNN and need the conservative point of view.

Great stay

Great, Hotel. Food at the restaurant was average. We don’t gamble so I did not use the casino. It is a distance away from Port Perry if you want better food.
