Last time I was in the area I stayed at a different hotel and it was a good experience. This time I came here and it was even better. Absolutely fantastic.
The hotel is a bit dated but super clean, they obviously take pride in that.
The staff is beyond helpful. They are kind and caring. I had a migraine and the staff came to check in me and brought me water and advil since I had none (and no where to get any on new years even with a child in tow).
Breakfast options are great too. They have a lot of food. Pancake machine too!

Exactly what we needed. We got a good price and the breakfast was good, lots of options.
The pool was fun, and the room was clean.
The staff is what really made it for us. Everyone was vibrant, happy, pleasant and treated us like family. My little dude came out feeling great and is already planning another vacation to this location.
Thanks everyone.

We stayed at this absolute gem with our hockey team and could not have been happier with the experience. Courteous and helpful staff, great breakfast, clean well cared for pool, and were willing to let us use the breakfast lounge area to relax in the evenings. If you’re respectful and polite, they’ll go out of their way to make your stay with them great! We’ll be back anytime we’re staying in the area.

Perfect spot right off of the 401. Lots of restaurants down the main street and always have a good time.
We always stay in theme room so far.. king bed.. jacuzzi.. and lots of spare space to relax and enjoy.
The fireplace this time of year is such an added bonus and sets the tone for a relaxing evening..
