Front desk staff needs some retraining

We have stayed at the Otonabee Inn 5 or 6 times during visits to see family in the area. We love the location and have never had any problems before. This visit was tainted by our check-in experience. Never have I been treated so rudely by front desk staff in a hotel anywhere. Never. I don’t know if the young woman greeting us was just having a reallyyyy bad day, but I was gobsmacked by her condescending tone as were my friends who listened nearby. If this was my first experience, I’m not sure I would come back. All other staff—housekeeping, breakfast—were delightful, as usual.

The air conditioning unit in our room was extremely loud. Because of this, it was impossible to sleep. The hotel exterior desperately needs to be painted. The staff we dealt with were very nice, but the hotel needs some upgrades.

It was close to the family we came to visit. It was also close to a beach and other tourist type sites that we visited. We enjoyed sitting on the riverside deck at breakfast each morning. It gave us a peaceful moment before we started our day.
