Staff was good, room very clean. The wall unit heater/ac was blowing cold air, so turned it off and the room was very cold overnight. The temperature outside was -20, so maybe it just can’t handle that, or we needed to wait longer for warm air. We did wait 15 minutes and it was still blowing cold air, so we turned it off

I stayed at this hotel for one night during a business trip. The hotel itself was nice and the room was generally comfortable. However, I was very disappointed with a few things. The in-room coffee machine was extremely dirty and looked like it hadn’t been cleaned in years, which was honestly disgusting. The hotel also advertises a continental breakfast, but what was offered was very disappointing and not what I expected. Additionally, I stayed in room 122 and the bathroom exhaust fan was very loud and should be replaced with a quieter one. I was switched to this hotel from the Best Western in Orillia, and unfortunately, I was not happy with the overall experience despite the comfortable room.

The policy online says check-in "3pm to anytime". I booked the room so my pregnant wife would have a place to stay until a morning appointment. The desk clerk said they didn't allow check-in after 3am and sent her away.

Property informed us on the day of arrival that they don’t have any rooms, meanwhile credit card got charged. On top of that, their customer service was rude.

The front desk person was very courteous and efficient. The room I was given however was not what I had reserved. The room was supposed to have a fireplace but the room I got is very, very small and no fireplace. I am too weary to say anything about it so I can't really blame the hotel since I didn't give them a chance to correct it. The room is nice and clean and quiet - so all is good.
