The staff were really friendly and professional. The breakfasts were excellent and again the servers were excellent. The room was clean and adequate, bathroom catered to showers, but was good size. Bars of soap would be nice. The view of the harbour from our room was very nice and I appreciated that the hotel gave us the upgrade. We would stay there again

I loved the Ocean view. But the parking area NEEDS to be cleaned up and better accessible. The parking across the street only had one narrow in and out opening and the grass was tall, gravel was uneven. If it is not your parking lot why direct me to park there? Other than that my stay was good.

Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities
The overall cleanliness of the hotel was poor including the elevator, hallways, rooms, and dining areas. The room was very large with a nice balcony and a view of the ocea, but the room would greatly benefit from having at least one more mirror besides just the one in the bathroom. There is also plenty of space for additional bedside tables on the outside of each bed, which would be nice. When we arrived we immediately noticed that our floors had not been cleaned. When we went to get into bed we discovered that it had already been slept in, and we had to phone the front desk to have our sheets changed while we waited in the hallway at 11:00 at night. There was construction happening in a room down the hallway - the shop vac and other Construction materials and garbage were left in the hallway. it could have easily been left in the room undergoing the construction with the door shut, but it was left in the hallway and the door to the room under construction was left open for at least an entire day and night. In addition to that, a door to the room containing the open laundry chute was left open. We were on the 8th floor. We closed that door ourselves as we felt it was a major safety concern. The free breakfast was simply mediocre. It contained eggs sausage potatoes and waffles and cereal. There was no fruit or yogurt or juice. The floors were dirty and the walls could all use a wipe down. The elevators and hallway walls were all grubby and due for a wipedown as well.
