Nice hotel in a beautiful location. The hotel is older so some parts show its age but the rooms were comfortable. The staff was very nice to us. This hotel's COVID-19 handling was some of the best we saw, starting from a sink with soap outside the entrance to the reception (which is so much more enjoyable than that gooey sanitizing solution), they sanitized the counter at the front desk between guests and also sanitized all the pens used by the guests. We didn't eat at the restaurant (we had other plans), but it looked nice. There's a lot of stuff for families at this hotel. Mini-putt, as well as some games on the basement level.

Nice rooms, coffee pot, and small refrigerator . Check-in was easy and parking was plentiful.. I'm not impressed by Canadian breakfast buffets. Would rather be waited and fresh cooked foods. Would go back if in area. The views are spectacular! Indoor pool and outdoor pool. Could use a pickleball court. They had a run-down tennis court no one was using. Recommend by us. Never had dinner here.

Such a beautiful place. The rooms were clean and functional. The actual lot is absolutely gorgeous. They had one of the best hotel breakfasts I've ever had before. They also have a ton of amenities available. I think this place would be absolutely amazing for a wedding type event, or just a romantic weekend trip.

We really liked this place. It's a real jewel here on the island. The view is amazing. The staff were all friendly and helpful. There's both an indoor and an outdoor pool, as well as a game room (ping pong, pool, chess, foosball table, etc). The restaurant patio area is covered and has a wonderful view of the river. The room was a bit older, but most importantly it was clean. We had a view of the pool and river. A nice touch was the little table and chairs outside of each room facing the river. It was a wonderful spot to relax in the evening or catch the morning sunshine with a cup of coffee. Overall very happy with my stay and would highly recommend.

Temperature was not really on our side. But we still made the best of it. Room was ok, no air conditioner except in the Hotel. Funny story, I'm 6 feet tall, but the bathroom shower head is about 5'6 max, so I had to bend my knees to shower my hair, and then to brush my hair the mirror in the bathroom was also made for people of less than 5'6... lol - so I used the big mirror in the room, no big

My wife and I went over the wknd. A short stay but very pleasant. The room was very clean and the beds comfy. The view is amazing to say the least. Lots of outdoor seating including a fire pit. We played a game of mini put, it was more for the sake of doing an activity. Depending on ur expectations it may leave something to be desired. But its mini put guys, dont get ur hopes up. The staff is very nice and even though I'm completely bilingual, when speaking English they did their best to accommodate me. The complementary breakfast is what it is. Due to covid the kitchens are closed and they do the best they can. We got homemade muffins with an orange juice, a slice of brick cheese, and a piece of fruit. I'm not a big breaky eater so it's fine by me. For a wknd to a few days it's a great place. A week or more I'm not sure I'd have enough things to do. Just a personal opinion. All in all I very much enjoyed my stay. From the staff to the rooms it was all very pleasant.
