The hotel had a mix of positive and negative aspects. While the rooms were filthy and in disrepair, making our stay uncomfortable, the hotel also had some well-appointed and comfortable areas. The service was friendly and accommodating, but there were instances of noise disturbances. The location was convenient for shopping and accessing attractions, though the noise from freight trains was disruptive. The dining options were varied, offering a good selection for breakfast. The facilities were passable, but some areas needed improvement.

Overall, I had a mixed experience during my stay.

The hotel's location was not far from downtown and close to Lake Ontario, which was great for a park visit and a walk on the lake's trail. However, the noise from freight trains and early morning housekeeping disturbed my stay.

The hotel was clean and comfortable overall, with friendly staff, but had some issues with privacy due to the close table setup. However, it was ready and suitable for our group during a lacrosse tournament. The location was convenient for shopping and close to the hockey arena, but the noise from the nearby railway tracks was disruptive. The dining experience was good with plenty of choices, although it was dominated by the early-rising hockey team. There were positive and negative aspects to our stay.
