Centrally located hotel

The hotel is centrally located to most of the city’s attractions. It’s walking distance to the downtown, the steamer wharf, and the lake.

No smart TV, moisturiser and staff was very vague when questioned. These are some of the basics that a hotel needs. Very behind as even motels have these things now.

My room had a stunning view. Hotel is in a great location, I didn’t need a car, I walked everywhere. It’s a big hotel so staff isn’t too friendly or eager to help. It was clean - enough. At least in the important areas - bed and bathroom. Corners of my windows had cob webs and at some point a former guest had finger drew some pictures in the dust on the glass - which looks out at the view so hard to miss. Also, it’s hard to describe the weirdness of the hallways to the rooms - you go from a nice lobby to…damaged hallway walls and a 1970’s feel. They are also very long. It was good for what it is.

I loved the view of the lake & mountains from my room. Such a magical sight to wake up to. My steak was cooked to perfection. Could taste the love in the food and the staff were very accommodating. The only improvement over all would be to update their guest laundry with new washing machines & dryers to facilitate the number of guests onsite.

Great location, it was clean and the staff were really nice and friendly. The bed was super comfortable, perfect location. The room was just a bit tired, the hotel just needs some minor renovations. It was worth the money we paid for during a long weekend.

Once again this is my third stay here and it’s all about location and view. This time got the suite with balcony and that’s a game changer, taking in the amazing view through a window is nice but sitting outside taking in the cool clean air is worth the extra money. I still believe the whole place is in need of some serious updating but is very clean and staff amazing. Food options still not great. But would be happy to stay here again
