5/5 Excellent

"We stayed here over the July long weekend with our dog. The hotel was fantastic with our dog, the hotel supplied a dog bed, water dish, pick-up bags, and even gave our dog a toy and treats upon arrival. The room was good for what we needed it to be, the kitchenette was a nice bonus as well. Yes, the rooms do not have AC, but in all honesty, we didn’t need it. It wasn’t 30C when we were here, but it was low to mid 20s and the room cooled off enough at night to be comfortable (even too cold). Beds were comfortable. Only downside with keeping the window open at night was the trains running at all hours and blowing their horns, which typically woke us up. Staff was friendly and helpful. I still don’t understand the lack of daily housekeeping (considering the cost per night), but this seems to be par for the course nowadays unfortunately. We didn’t use any of the amenities, however they looked to be in good condition. The restaurant food was good, reasonably priced, and allowed us to have our dog with us on the patio (which makes life easier as you can’t leave the dog unattended). We would definitely stay here again. "
