Liked: Cleanliness
Our room was very clean and comfortable. The location next to the river was nice since we had a view out our window. Breakfast was amazing, literally, it was huge and had everything from fresh baked bread to delicious crepes and all the meet cheese and fresh fruit you could want. The location being attached to the ice hockey arena was interesting. There is no staff that regularly attends the entrance and no lobby at all.

Spent 1 night, double room. Very clean and modern hotel. Breakfast was super good. Everything was clean. Never been to a cleaner hotel before. It’s also memorable to stay in a hotel where a hockey team plays.

The staff and the breakfast were wonderful. Although the self check in was new for me, there was an attendant available who was very helpful. The parking was not obvious at all, and the pay station did not accept my North American credit card, she pointed me to some free parking close by. Also in the morning she was extremely helpful with a personal situation. The property is outside of town, however close to many trails, and right beside the river. It was a very cost effective choice for us. The breakfast was fantastic, great food options - the health juice shots were a pleasant surprise and the coffee was amazing. Plus the view of the hockey rink was not expected and very nice touch for us Canadians!

The room is whitout window. This was not specified on the web page of Hotels.com of this hotel. This is not acceptable at all. I soffer of a slight form of claustrophobia and cannot stand close spaces.
