Great

Great price for a waterfront hotel! Clean facilities, great customer service. Pool’s a perfect size - perhaps extending pool hours would be amazing (maybe 0600-2200h), otherwise great experience!

We got 5 rooms for a wedding. 2 of the rooms had to be cancelled due to excessive amount of bugs, beatles and spiders. Was offered free parking upon checking in but the manager who is absolutely incompetent gave my mother a hard time upon checking out and removed the free parking and insisted on charging us all for it stating the person didn’t have the authority to do so. I called the front desk to speak with her and she cut the call short. went down only for another worker to remove the parking fee but 3 of the rooms but couldn’t remove the parking for my mother since she was already charged for it (she left early morning we checked out late). So the manager is simply the biggest problem this hotel has and of course cleanliness.

If you're traveling to Burlington, this is the property to stay it. It is located on the shores of Lake Ontario, with a boardwalk and beach just steps from the hotel. Surrounded by restaurants, shops, transportation and activities.

Nice views, poor hotel

The rooms had no drawers to put anything away. Have to live out of your suitcase. Not enough staff to properly clean the rooms during busy times.
