Room was ok other than photos clearly said (in writing) that the king room has a walk in glass shower, in reality it had a tub with a shower curtain. I expect to get a room as represented in the photos, not something else.
The hotel is in a smart centre mall so you’ve got food choices and groceries etc nearby, however most close early.
The room was fine but the hallways had a VERY strong odor, as if some type of chemical had just been used possibly from recent construction or renovation.
Denny’s is open 24 hours and attached to the hotel, stick to the breakfast menu..just trust me.
Moxies is also attached to the hotel and it was fantastic. A little on the pricy side but it was convenient and definitely delicious.
One night we came in after work and greeted the front desk staff with a “hey, how ya doin?” As we always do…we didn’t even get a grunt in return. They stared at us with furrowed eye brows and an angry look as if we weren’t welcome or supposed to be there.
Most likely wouldn’t stay in this hotel again.

My room was very clean. The staff was very professional and helpful. The pool and hot tub was a nice amenity. I'd would easily stay here again.
The bathroom wall beside the sink was covered in what appeared to be tooth paste splatter. The wall paper was bubbling in many areas near the floor board. Ceiling paint peeling in the bathroom. Stain on mattress cover.
There was no breakfast. Just a 10 voucher to a Denny's it was $20 each for breakfast. We were given a handicap room. I am 6ft 4" and have no disability's. The height of everything was for a person in a wheelchair. The room was small and loud with noise from outside. the heating unit was like a jet plane taking off so we had to turn it off for the night only to wake up freezing at 3am. The desk staff were unhelpful and a little rude. I will not return.
Very friendly staff clean room and very quiet would stay there again just would recommend to other travellers if available not to choose the view of the QEW because it can be loud
