The customer service was about the only good thing with this property. Checking in I was asked for my email and since then my inbox has been initiated. I had to increase the heat in the room to 81 degrees just to take the chill off . Parking is unsafe .

The room we stayed in (# 660) was clean and comfortable. Staff were always courteous and friendly. The buffet breakfast in the morning was probably the best I've ever had at a hotel. The egg station was a nice touch that my wife took advantage of. Well done. Not accustomed to having to pay for parking at a hotel so I wasn't too happy about that. Nor is the location of the parking facility ideal for Hotel guests. Next time I stay at the Hotel I'll know to drop off my bags first then go park the car. I suggest you put something on your Website that speaks to that and to clearly show (in a picture or video) where the entrance is on Benton street. I had to call the Hotel to find out if it was self-park or valet parking and if it was self-park WHERE DO YOU PARK?.

Staff was great, food was great the only complaint is paying to park at a hotel you're paying to stay at and 12 bucks a night to boot. But a great old hotel.

The hotel is nice and the overall experience was pretty good. What can be improved is the checkout process. I was in Kitchener for my son’s volleyball tournament. Probably the majority of the hotel guests were coaches, athletes and families. Last day of our stay we had to checkout early

Old property needs to be upgraded. The bathroom very very small, no separate shower, just a bathtub with a shower head which makes it not easy to get in and out for senior people. Never ending narrow ugly corridors. Poor signs to find elevators. Parking uncomfortable, along walk when busy. Only good point is a very good buffet breakfast with excellent service.

I was originally attracted to the bowling and arcade entertainment but the arcade is very run down. Many of the machines do not work. I know it is run by a third party, but please don’t advertise something that you don’t have quality control over if it’s going to be a huge disappointment. The restaurant breakfast buffet is reasonably priced with lots of nice options like an omelet station and fresh crepes. The staff was really nice and helpful.
