The room was fine. The location was excellent. The breakfast room was not as fancy as the photos on the website made it look. One of the two elevators had a control panel held on with duck tape. When we checked in there was a problem with the computer so keys could not be made. However, they did store our luggage safely when we came in before check in time and called us when the room was ready, and stored our luggage again when we checked out. Concierge was very helpful. Overall a good experience.

Ran out of things at breakfast. Hot food pans were broken so had to have someone hold it up while I served my food. Valet was great but could have self-parked next door cheaper.

Great location and view from Riverside but a lot of noise from traffic and 18 wheelers. Take a sound machine. Rooftop pool is very nice and the gazebo was lovely. Concierge was very helpful and friendly. Front desk and breakfast staff were not friendly and one lady was very rude when I asked about reward details. Breakfast staff ignored me totally and shook her head when I asked if there would be any refills. Got a ding on my car with Valet parking. Overall a great place to walk to all areas of downtown. Clean and really good overall.

The staff was great. Friendly and helpful. The rooms were very comfortable and clean. The elevator is the only thing that really needs attention - worn out and the one had control panel with floor buttons duct taped together. That should really be fixed asap. Otherwise, I can't complain at all - it was great location on Bay Street right across from the river and easy walk to everything.

Hotel was very clean, staff was very polite and courteous. Had a small billing issue where multiple charges were on our card that shouldn’t be. Staff is working to get issue corrected. As long as charges drop off like we were told they would, it shouldn’t be a big deal. Valet parking staff needs more help. Valet Parking is a convenience service. We waited 20+ minutes for our vehicle multiple times. This made a $50 per day service very inconvenient. Valet staff was very nice and we’re doing the best they could. They just need more people.

Convenient location to the riverfront. Room was clean and family friendly. We could use more towels for a family of 4, only left 3 in the room (borrowed pool towels). The view in photo is from 9th floor pool deck which our room was on second floor with view to restaurants. Parking valet was excellent, friendly and fast. Breakfast was wonderful everyday! Family loved the pancake maker!
