Disliked: Amenities
I liked the location of this property. With it being on a busy street between a bowling alley and a car dealership, the perceived likelihood of being robbed in the parking lot was very low. I felt safe around the building. One thing I did not enjoy was that the bath tub was old, and that the hallways seemed subpar compared to the Hampton Inn & Suites or other new builds in the area. I could tell that the building was old when I stayed there, but for the price, I would stay again.

A great stay in Thunder Bay

The front desk staff was very friendly and helpful, check in and check out were very fast. The room was clean and well appointed. The room was a bit small, but the bed and pillows were extremely comortable. Breakfast was good, with a nice selection.
