Great Stay Near the Lake

easy accessefficient parkingquick check-in
the hotel provided easy access to dining and the scotia bank centre. valet parking was efficient, and check-in was quick, getting me to my room within 30 minutes. i appreciated the short walk to various nearby dining options.
the room door did not effectively block noise coming from the hallway.

breakfast buffetfresh fruitcentral locationslow elevatorsmall gym
The breakfast buffet had great variety. i found a good selection of fresh fruit and pastries there. the location was convenient for exploring nearby attractions. It was quite central. the room was also very clean and well-kept.
The elevators were quite slow and crowded at times. it made getting to and from my room a bit of a hassle. the gym was smaller than i expected. i noticed a limited selection of equipment. There was only one squat rack. It began around 7:30 am, disruptive.

Solid stay downtown

The hotel staff was cute. Staff. I got upgraded to a water view and could see the lake from my window. The later check out time of noon was appreciated, because i could sleep a little longer.
The hotel was super busy, because of a conference. This made it crowded.
