Overall it was decent, would stay but only in a room with a view!
Pros:

Breakfast was good and was tasty. Ran low on supplies of a few items. Overall a decent breakfast.

Cons:

Stayed for 2 night then left. Came back and stayed one more night. Had us in the basement for the second night, had to request a move to a higher floor. They moved us but not a good view from this room.

Excellent
Pros:

Very modern in an old historic building. Clean and very comfortable bed. Breakfast was delicious.

Cons:

If you have a lot of luggage and need to use a cart it’s a long trek around the building.

We very much enjoyed our stay in this comfortable boutique hotel in downtown Thunder Bay.
Pros:

This boutique hotel is a remodelled heritage building that retains many original features. Our room was spacious, very quiet and had a great view. We particularly appreciated the comfortable king-size bed. The included hot breakfast buffet was good. Parking was very convenient, immediately adjacent to the building.

Cons:

Minor shortcomings: only four hangers in the wardrobe, no hair dryer (although one was provided on request), a folding suitcase rack to supplement the bench at the foot of the bed would have been helpful as would a towel bar beside the shower.

Absolutely loved our stay at The Courthouse! We will be back again for a longer stay next time!
Pros:

Convenient to city activities. Comfortable bed! Corner unit so it had a lot of natural light during the day. Pleasantly surprised with the Beekman products in the shower. The shower was amazing too!
