Not even a continental breakfast! Rooms need some severe renovating. I think King Tut used the gym equipment!

Positives: Close to where we needed to be.

Negatives: Very outdated, needs renovating, had to pay extra for parking.


Reviewer: Not provided on Thu 24 Sep 2009 rated 10 out of 10.

Excellent location, friendly, knowledgeable staff, bright and cheery, lovely new decor, fabulous view (Harbor Side).

Positives: The best feature was our room location - 2nd floor, harbor view.

Negatives: Nothing, all was perfect.


Reviewer: Not provided on Tue 04 Aug 2009 rated 9 out of 10.

Hotel is a great property. Rooms were clean with a nice decor and mini fridge in room. Small balcony off of each room so you can get fresh air and look out at the lake. Lobby is small but not too important but it can be very crowded at check-in and check-out. I have stayed here 3 times and will stay here again.

Positives: Great location right on the water.

Negatives: Small lobby - restaurant under renovations.


Reviewer: Not provided on Thu 23 Jul 2009 rated 8 out of 10.

Hotel is a solid one. A bit overpriced for the hotel itself. You are paying for the convenience and water front location.

Positives: Staff was very friendly and helpful.

Negatives: Could have made it easier to find parking.


Reviewer: Not provided on Sun 03 May 2009 rated 7 out of 10.

Well situated with friendly staff. No warmth to room furnishings.

Positives: Close to amenities.

Negatives: Rooms were too sparsely furnished for the price you pay.


Reviewer: Not provided on Tue 09 Sep 2008 rated 3 out of 10.

Although I was very impressed with the location of the hotel our experience was not the best. In that room there was no shampoo so we had to call for that. Due to the troubles at the hotel we were a little disappointed.

Positives: I really liked the location and the pool and gym facilities.

Negatives: The AC did not work, pillows were too small, we were given no shampoo.

First room was ridiculously noisy, immediately requested and was given another room. Second room was ok but with a view of the side of the front entrance way.

Positives: Location.

Negatives: First room was directly over rock band's terrace, noise deafening.

Basic motel, with basic free breakfast, and a nice pool. Close to Niagara Falls, but away from crowds. Wanted payment up front, told front desk we wanted to say another night, had to pay ahead of time.

Positives: Pool, price, away from crowds.

Negatives: Wanted payment upon arrival.

The hotel needs some repair work in the inside pool area (ceiling peeling) etc and balcony area specifically the lights, need cleaning. The main level bar area could be better laid out as well. Generally, good stay but the hotel needs some upgrading. That said, the front desk staff is excellent!

Positives: Proximity to core of the city, hotel staff and convenience of adjacent parking.

Negatives: Cleanliness of balcony and lack of separate electrical outlet from master switch to bathroom.
