This hotel is convenient to the airport and tats the best I can say about it. Walked up to the desk. Five staff there total with no customers. Middle one looks up at me, drops her eyes - and finally the one on the end acknowledges me. The chat continues. No paperwork ready, I am Platinum with IHG. Take a... More

Nice clean hotel,central to all amenities:shopping in particular and restaurants. Good value for the money. Only compliant: the (water)pipes need a lot of insulation. Every time some one in the room above or next ran the water or flushed a toilet,you heard it. Not fun early in the morning or late at night when trying to rest.

What it is was a clean, friendly, and very competant hotel. Check in: Simple and no hassles. We got the room (including parking and shuttle) from Groupon. The desk staff processed me... More

Staff was friendly but hotel rooms are terrible. No elevator, the hotel is a maze and you have to walk threw various hallways to get to your depending on the room. The mattress was very hard, squeaky and uncomfortable. Room was basic and the washrooms are very old looking, below average. Parking is free and it's close to the highway,... More
