Première nuit d'adaptation à la vie canadienne
Pros:

Cet hôtel de style motel est pratique et a un bon rapport qualité prix. Nous y avons passé la première nuit après notre arrivée au Canada. Difficile de juger cette nuit perturbée par le décalage horaire. La chambre était confortable bien qu'un peu vieillotte et sombre.

Cons:

La salle de bain dans le plus pure style américain des années 80. Les chambres et la salle de bain pourraient être refaites dans un style un peu plus actuels.

Pros:

Zajtrk soliden. Soba čista, velika. V sobi še mini kuhinja kar nam je zelo prav prišlo zvečer za pripravo obrokov. En dan je bilo parkirišče zaradi tekme precej polno, a so problem rešili, da smo lahko parkirali v garažni hiši sosednjega hotela.
