Reviews and Ratings
The hotel offers decent rooms that can be a bit noisy if neighbors are loud and could have been cleaner. However, the overall experience is satisfactory with comfortable accommodations. The service is commendable despite some issues with reservations, while the location is convenient for both airport access and exploring attractions. The dining options may not be as diverse compared to similar hotels, but the facilities meet basic expectations.
I had a lovely stay at the hotel. The rooms were large and modern with beautiful decor, perfect for preparing for my wedding day or spending the night after. The service was friendly and efficient, although there were some cleanliness issues in the hallways. The location was convenient for my airport travel and exploring Thunder Bay. The dining was good but a bit pricy, and there were some issues with canceled reservations. Overall, a comfortable and enjoyable experience with some minor drawbacks.
Staying at the hotel was a mixed experience. The rooms, although decent and clean, had a safety issue with the sliding door. The service, after some initial problems, turned out to be friendly and helpful. The location was convenient for specific purposes but lacked cleanliness. The dining schedule was disrupted unexpectedly, affecting the overall experience.
Staying at the Hampton Inns and Suites was a convenient experience, with clean and comfortable rooms where you have everything you need right there, from the restaurant to Starbucks and the bar. However, the disrupted peace by late-night noise was a letdown.
The hotel offers a convenient location close to the airport and various dining options. The rooms are a bit dark but free of any construction signs. The service was friendly overall, with some inconsistency. The dining experience was great, especially during cold weather. The location was perfect for specific plans.
