Nice spot conveniently located in the heart of Thunder Bay. Staff was extremely accommodating and the rooms were comfortable, clean, and looked like they had a few updates. Hotel is a little dated, but overall a great stay!

Friendly staff, and the view was excellent. The swimming pool was questionable based on location and carpet, plus lack of security cameras i.e. blind spots. Parking lot does not deter random foot traffic. Room had microwave, fridge, and complimentary coffee and tea, bathroom had available soap/ conditioner plus towels. Tv is working as well with basic channels for viewing Overall a good stay.
