Pros:

Literie confortable, parking gratuit 👍🏻

Cons:

Pas de frigo dommage car très utile pour y mettre sa boisson pour qu'elle soit fraîche pour le lendemain (randos etc), petit déjeuner début assez tard (7h30) lorsque l'on a de la route pour faire les activités de la journée, pas de self service c'est dû à la carte (1 seul plat salé du coup de compris par personne) 👎🏻

Pros:

Location was awesome, as It was right on the water and the breakfast included was amazing, servers and front desk staff were awesome.

Cons:

It was kind of dated which was nice to an extent. It needs fridges in the rooms. Our food went bad as there wasnt anywhere to put it and most rooms these days have small fridges in the room.

Die Lage würde mehr hergeben; das Hotel hat die besten Zeiten hinter sich
Pros:

Die Lage des Hotels direkt am Hafen ist sehr schön; eigene Parkplätze vorhanden; indisches Restaurant im Haus; junger Mann an der Rezeption und junge Kellnerin waren sehr aufmerksam; gepflegter Garten; Bad wurde erneuert

Cons:

Zimmer nahe dem Küchenabzug, d.h. bis spät am Abend Küchengerüche; teilweise wenig motivierte Mitarbeiter z.B. beim Frühstück; Auswahl beim Früchstück eher eingeschränkt; Spa gibt es nicht mehr; Zimmer eher klein; kein Lift, d.h. Koffer schleppen

Ground floor if you can't do stairs
Pros:

I was pleasantly surprised by this Inn after reading the reviews. The rooms were pleasant and clean. Property is built on a hill and has a lot of stairs and no elevator.

I had asked for a ground floor room with 2 beds for mobility issues. The room was in a motel-like addition. It had a walkout to the waterfront patio which was a lovely feature.
The bathroom was newly renovated with walk-in shower. Beds were comfortable.
Some furniture was a bit worn, but not an issue.

Location is very close to the Thousand Island Cruise terminal.

"Free" Breakfast was not great. Avoid the omelets . They were precooked and cold.
Best bet is the eggs and bacon. It was at least freshly cooked.

I stayed at this property as I was meeting with others who were also staying there.
Although I enjoyed my stay, it was overpriced.

Overall very clean and very friendly staff.
Pros:

The breakfast and wait staff were perfect

Cons:

What we didn’t like was that the dining room tables were dirty. They could have been covered by some nice white clean linens. The chairs on the outside patio were very uncomfortable.
