If you like ships, you will love this hotel. It's built so that every balcony has a perfect view of Lock 7 on the Welland Canal. Easy access to walking trails along the canal, if you want to follow a ship a ways-- which you can, they go slow enough.
Staying here was like going back in time-- it was clean and quiet to a standard other hotels in Southern Ontario gave up on at least 10 years ago. There are no dodgy key-cards here: you get an honest-to-Neptune physical key.
I admit. I'd rather stay here than a falls-facing hotel in Niagara-- I like the view better. Even if I didn't like the view better, I'd rather stay here than a falls-facing hotel in Niagara because I know there are no bedbugs, and I won't get locked out of my room from a computer glitch.
I don't think I've ever liked a hotel this much.
