Reviews and Ratings
My stay at this hotel had its highs and lows. The rooms were small and faced the parking lot, but they did offer an amazing view of the water and sunset, especially on warmer days. I appreciated the convenience of having a microwave, fridge, and Keurig coffee. The service was a mix; some staff were unhelpful and loud in the early morning, while others were friendly and courteous. The location was nice, right by the river with lovely views, great for relaxing with a cocktail. The dining options were decent, with a nice selection but nothing exceptional.
I had a mixed experience at this hotel. The rooms smelled of dog urine, and the bathroom was rusty and old, which was disappointing. On the bright side, the room was spacious with two queen beds and two twin beds available. The service, especially at the restaurant, was exceptional, with friendly and accommodating staff. The location was superb, close to the beautiful St Lawrence River, perfect for enjoying cocktails and spectacular sunsets. However, the dining experience exceeded expectations with a plentiful breakfast selection. Overall, a stay with its ups and downs.
