Clean room, building and rooms could do with a little updating. The coffee machine in our room did not work and the pods they have for us to use were limited. Good use of a fridge and staff were very helpful. Location was excellent.

The Red Carpet Inn was a step down in quality and price from the attached hotel where you get your keys. We were there on Canada Day and were able to watch the parade right in front of the Red Carpet Inn. The staff was very helpful in our numerous questions. Parking is available, but a bit tricky when you first arrive.
