"This is such a cute spot! So much to do and see, we loved seeing the bay ducks and reindeer. The rooms are comfortable and the little patios are such a nice touch. The restaurant attached had great food and drinks, and the service was friendly and knowledgeable. We will definitely be back again!"
"Toilet backed up so we were handed a plunger. Lobby under construction. Walls are paper thin. Guests yelling in the halls at all hours. We were woken up countless times all night long over multiple nights."
"The room was loud with a train waking me up several times a night. The location was not really walkable and the potholes were bad. The exterior was nice but the room was not great. Parking was free, and breakfast was included."
