This hotel was well done and clean. The room was clean and well maintained. The checkin was easy and the staff were friendly and polite. The shower had all the temperatures and was easy to use. The cups in the washroom had toothpaste spots on them. This room has a tv, fridge, desk, and coffee machine. The bed was very comfortable. The breakfast was probably the best part. It has everything you could want. Definitely recommend the bacon. The restaurant was clean with excellent service. In the morning we got a little show of squirrels . Parking was nice. Recommend! 😁

Our stay was relaxing. The room was clean and comfortable with nice extras such as a fridge and makeup mirror. The staff were all very friendly. The hot buffet breakfast, which was included in our reservation, was top notch! Delicious with many food choices. The hotel is very close to the Queen's University campus which made it convenient for travel. I would choose this hotel again.
