Great Hotel. Clean, good location, lovely views, impressive breakfast. Staff were lovely. 1 concern but a big one since sleeping is the reason for the visit - the beds were not good. Hard and lumpy, empty pillows and 1 incredibly heavy weighted blanket. I used my robe to sleep under. Rough night

Great Lakefront City Option
Excellent location! Waterfront was beautiful, parking was easy. Great spot for a lake front walk. The carpet did have some stains, I never understood why hotels have carpet. It didn’t impact my visit at all. The restaurant attached is convenient and great options. GO-train was a quick drive, and could have taken the bus to get there if needed. Stayed in room 104, just outside the lobby, was not noisy, nice view of the park/lake.
