    Value for money

I had a fantastic stay at this hotel! The cleanliness was impeccable, and I felt comfortable throughout my stay. The hotel facilities were great, especially the swimming pool access from my Deluxe Business Queen Room. The location was perfect for me, as it was just close to the lake and provided a peaceful atmosphere on a holiday evening. Parking was included in the room rate, which was very convenient. The staff at this hotel were exceptional in customer service, making me feel welcomed and well taken care of.

Nothing, it was perfect.

I had a fantastic stay at this hotel. The staff were kind and accommodating, making me feel welcome and valued. The rooms were clean, spacious, and had a super deep bath, which was a bonus for my daughter. The hotel's location was suitable for my needs, being close to everything this city has to offer. The noon check-out was very convenient, and I enjoyed dining at the nice restaurant. the cleanliness, hotel facilities, and location for me were top-notch.

It was all superb.

We had a fantastic stay at this hotel. The room was beautifully designed, with soft wood-like flooring and high grade white tiles in the kitchen and bathroom. The parking was convenient, as it was right in front of our room. The staff were incredibly friendly and welcoming, always providing quick and thorough answers to our questions. The location was perfect - close to the airport and ferries, but only a short 20-minute drive from downtown. We also enjoyed the proximity to Elk Lake park, a wonderful natural wilderness park, and the Broadmead Shopping Mall. we highly recommend this hotel for its cleanliness, convenient facilities, friendly staff, and excellent location.

All was good.
