Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Reprehensible,rude,confrontational,miserable,unwelcoming staff. (We own 12 successful businesses in Canada.OUR EMPLOYEES treat our customers like GOLD.Otherwise we would fire them.) Staff at OLIVER HOTEL reception need to be fired.We are not curs under your feet.You treat customers like dirt.You have no people skills. Filthy hotel. Smells of urine.Shower didn't work.Reported to main reception.They did nothing.AVOID THIS DIRTY HOTEL.Expedia should not be promoting them on their website. IF the owner replies to this & is critical of our review, then he is an inveterate LIAR. WORDS TO THE WISE: Never patronize this hell hole.We have been loyal customers of EXPEDIA for 20 years. WHY THEY endorse this horrible establishment is beyond our comprehension. Am sure that the Hotel owner will serve up some platitudinous rebuttal as a pathetic defense.A budiness's reputation is only as good as its service. OLIVER personnel are not capable of offering courteous,decorous service. JUDGE M.S. .

Disliked: Amenities
Room was much smaller than photos, could barely move in the shower, in the morning then shower was cold no hot water and then completely stopped water all together. Breakfast was pants, continental breakfast but it's not even help yourself so you're limited on what you can have. Then finally they also request that you leave your key at reception when leaving the property!!! There was nobody even at reception when I left so I just took my key with me but it's not ideal for security purposes if keys are left and reception unattended with valuables in the room.

Great for the reasonable price, clean, good sized room and en suite (we paid slightly more for exec room), efficient service especially at breakfast which was basic but sufficient. Parking nearby and short walk to attractions.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
Hotel Oliver was a life saver as my flight had been cancelled and I needed a room which they has available for my one night stay. I know we can’t be choosy under quick circumstances I was a little take aback at how old and run down the room looked. It was rather dated reminded of something rented on a budget youth hostel in the 80s. It’s such a beautiful location why not give it a face lift.
