Great stay

Great, Hotel. Food at the restaurant was average. We don’t gamble so I did not use the casino. It is a distance away from Port Perry if you want better food.

Unfortunately I was situated on the first floor Room 107. There was an extreme amount of noise for most of the night. Maybe people coming in from the bar, hanging out in the lobby or the hallways. I was in town for a workshop and looking forward to a nice evening of rest and recoup. Was woken up multiple times in the night. The room was clean, so that was nice.

We’ve stayed here a few times and generally like the value for money. Not big gamblers so we stay here for its proximity to a local auto racing track. The hotel is pretty isolated so there’s no amenities right near the hotel. Closest town is Port Perry about 15 minutes or so. The rooms are quite nice. There is dining on site but we didn’t take advantage of that. Would’ve liked a bit of a better morning coffee/breakfast option included with your stay like other chains but I’m sure they want you to use their on site restaurant and get a few bucks that way. The rooms have a mini fridge but no microwave or coffee maker which I think should be standard in any room these days. The rates are fairly reasonable for a nice, clean and modern room. It works for our needs.
