Cleanliness
1
Multiple reviewers describe rooms and building as clean, modern and well kept, though one report mentions oil smell in part of the building during breakfast.
Service
1
Mixed to negative: several notes of friendly/helpful staff but repeated problems with slow check-in, understaffed front desk, rude manager at breakfast, and a security scare (staff attempted to enter room at night).
Location
1
Positive river views and landscaped grounds praised, but the large, maze-like layout and lack of signage make orientation difficult for guests.
Room Quality
1
Mixed: some guests enjoyed large, comfortable beds and well-appointed rooms; others reported small rooms, squeaky beds, softer-than-desired mattresses, and thin walls with noise issues.
Amenities
1
Strong amenity set noted (sauna, lap pool, large pool, extensive gym and gymnasium, pub/restaurant, kitchenette options, refill stations); overall amenities are a highlight.
Value for Money
1
Several guests called it good value with a substantial breakfast and facilities, though at least one guest reported a serious pricing/booking dispute (extra $100) that lowered perceived value.
Food and Beverage
1
Breakfast buffet is praised when available, and the pub is liked by some; however complaints include slow food service, pub food quality for some, and instances of no staff in the cafe.
Overall Experience
1
Overall mixed impressions: several 'great' or 'amazing' stays thanks to amenities and staff, offset by service issues, navigation problems, noise, and isolated negative incidents.

Pros:

Close to the Quebec border.

Cons:

Access to our room - no signage for us ,asked various staff members to assist us but they could not help because they didn't know the various wings, main door to room had gaps & had no proper frames to keep the light out from the hall. Bathrooms very small.

Pros:

Our dinner at the Jet Set pub was excellent. The manager Rob stopped by our table to talk with us. And our server was excellent (wish I could remember her name as well). The food was soooo good
