Great for a place to crash
Pros:

Staff was really friendly and great.

Cons:

Lack of parking and very tight parking spaces if you could find a spot. All and all perfect for a place to crash after a long day of activities.

Cheap place to stay, but not worth the savings, too noisy.
Pros:

Location is easy to find. Bathroom was clean.

Cons:

Parking is too squishy and small. Very difficult to park. My fridge froze some of my food. The room was loud, I expected train noise and that didn’t bother me, but I heard every sound in the hallway, which was a lot at all hours of the night.

All aspects of our stay were smooth and felt well taken care of.
Pros:

The roof was being fixed on the building off the main property where our room was so we were upgraded to a room at the main building at the lakeside for same price. Our plans changed so was able to cancel our last night with no hassles when we first arrived. Also nice is to get a $10 coupon per person for use at the hotel restaurant if you decline daily cleaning. Didn't get a chance to use this time but last time had an excellent breakfast there. Also nice is the pool and hot tub.

Cons:

Nothing bad to say. I would have preferred a higher temp for the hot tub but otherwise everything else was excellent!

Economy hotel, clean and comfortable, everything you should expect and more for what you pay.
Pros:

Decent location close to local amenities. Nice view from the room on the 3rd floor on the lakefront side of the hotel

Cons:

Close to the train tracks, but we didn't hear the train during our stay. A little further away from the downtown core than we prefer, next to the mall and gas station and Safeway and the liquor store, balances out for most, still within walking distance or a short taxi ride.

No frills but a cozy clean place for the night
Pros:

The front staff were very kind and personable. The hotel itself is low budget, so that is reflected in the rooms. But worth the money for what you get.

Cons:

The curtains didn’t close properly on either side of the window, so anyone could peer in and light obviously came in, in the morning.
