I stayed in this place in October this year, on a trip across Canada, from UK! I don't think I can add anything new to the reviews here.....this was NOT a good choice , the photos need updating!! Our door didn't even lock! ....one star for service...there was no service!!

If there was a minus rating this place deserves it. It is totally inhabitable. Everything wrong about a hotel is wrong about this hotel. It is run down, dirty,full of bed bugs, smelling stale and of cigarettes, staff cannot be found when needed, and it looked generally unsafe. No electronic appliances work well if at all. No complimentary items, dirty sheets, towels, walls, and floors. This place ...

Infact, the monitor is way bigger than the tv in the room. The shared washroom had cabinets which were broken and not clean with flies and mosquitoes The bathroom stinks. Driving from Toronto made me realize that I ...
