I have stayed here three or four times. Most likely many of you will end up here when there is no vacancy left in Whitby or Oshawa and you’re travelling for sports although there’s 100 other reasons. I just mentioned this because they do tend to add a surge pricing when vacancy in the neighbouring communities drops to zero so sometimes you might pay a little bit more for your room than you think you should however, there is free parking and free breakfast. The eating area is large and bright and clean and there is lots of options. It is not just a continental. My room was clean and I was happy to be on the sixth floor this time which means no one above us , I found it much quieter. I did not use the pool. It looked perfectly fine as did the exercise room. There was lots of hot water. The bathroom needed a little bit of maintenance but nothing to make me wish I wasn’t there. I got a good sleep. What more can you ask for?

The room was cold. The heat system was blowing cold air. I happen to like it cold so it was tolerable.
The fresh staff person was friendly and sociable. The room was larger than expected with a full sofa.
Breakfast was yummy. Eggs, sausage, oatmeal with raisins and walnuts. The were hashbrowns and muffins. Passed on those but had a banana. There is also a pancake machine. Never seen one of those before.

Wow we have been looking for a place like this east of Toronto for a long time. From the minute we walked in the door until we left everything was great.
Rebecca at the front desk was super nice. After we got to our room she called to make sure we had what we needed.
Breakfast in the morning was great.
The place is very easy accessible just off the 401 with gas and restaurants close by.
The bed was super comfy and the room was clean. We will be back.
