The hotel met our expectations for cleanliness and comfort, and is conveniently located near Hwy 400
Pros:

Good selection and quality of breakfast foods.
As we were there for a family wedding, along with other people, there were several times I needed access to their rooms and housekeeping staff were very helpful. When we needed an extension cord, the front desk found one and delivered it promptly. All staff were friendly and helpful.

Cons:

I requested a kettle in the room for tea but the hotel could not accommodate me.

I would prefer real china, but cups for coffee in room and breakfast room were paper, with plastic cutler.

We brought our own tea, kettle and cups, because although the hotel has 24-hour tea and coffee available, it was not to our taste and we wanted to have tea before going down for breakfast.

Good hotel and good value.
Pros:

Medium size hotel, with all facilities necessary. Clean, comfortable. Large rooms. Free water and coffee available 24/7 in the lobby. Very nice personnel. Away from the center of town but right by the main highways and streets, so easily to travel to and from it. Excellent breakfast, varied and complete.

Cons:

Nothing
