Guests beware. This property is ON STRIKE

The hotel's personnel are on strike seeking 1 CAD$ addtional per hour. There are strikers' encampments at both entrances with tents, barbecues and rock music blaring. Management and family are manning the property with security stationed throughout Ice machines on the 4th, 6th and 8th floor were inoperational. I gave up. Windsor being a quasi union town, drivers honked their support of the strikers at all hours. WHY IS THIS PROPERTY BEING LISTED BY HOTELS. COM WITHOUT A WARNING?
