Best Western Plus Muskoka Inn

8/10 Good
"Convenient location, clean rooms, comfortable beds. Thin walls, could hear people next to me and above. Room was situated across from the elevator and was noisy. If I stayed again I would request a room far from the elevator. Employees who checked us in were not the friendliest but the employee who was on the desk in the morning was very nice and professional."
