Great place to stop

Phenominal breakfast for a hotel buffet. The staff was so kind and thorough. The breakfast staff went all out. The hotel is close to downtown and the falls.

The only thing I would recommend they improve is updating the television and allow access to the HDMI ports for plugging in your own Firestick or Roku device.
