Would not recommend. Dishonest staff
I’ve left many good reviews here. Unfortunately I will not anymore. The last “week stay” I had, I forgot something important in my room. When I realized, I contacted them immediately. The room hadn’t been cleaned yet. They assured me that it would be at the desk for pick up the following day. Unfortunately it was never handed in by the cleaners/staff. A week later, I quit trying. Frustrating to think that I spent over $2300 to stay here for 3 weeks, and they would still keep my $80 item. I would not recommend

Location was great. Did not like: 1. The Deadbolt was not working properly in our Room #138 2. Large deep gauge/scratch on the wall by our Bistro Table 3. Loud Customwrs in our Room next Door til after 2am. Brought it to the Attention at Checkout to the girl At Front Desk and Housekeeping Manager and the Manager offered no compensation and said the Hotel is Closing.. No excuse..

This place was very old and VERY dirty!!!! We were moved to 3 different rooms including a room upgrade before deciding there was no way we were sleeping there! Each room was equally FILTHY! Outside there was random pillows, inside smoke butts on the ground and the hot tub was currently out of order. Would not recommend this place to anyone.

Front entrance was dirty and not cleaned. Bathroom is old and the smallest bathroom I’v seen. Breakfast is kinda of a joke. Muffins in plastic and nutri bars was just about it.

The property is tired. The biggest problem with the property is there was no proper lighting anywhere. That goes for the room the reception, the breakfast room, etc. I informed them of my feelings before I left. The staff, however, or above and beyond their level of efficiency. I forgot a couple of things at the hotel and phone. On my way home. They listen to what I had forgotten they found it and they sent it out per Purolator immediately that day. I received it three days. I was very very appreciate it.

Good stay, but could be updated
It's okay place to stay, but I think the pictures online hype it up a little too much. The lobby and pool areas are very stylish (although the hot tub was out of order when we stayed), but the rooms themselves are extremely dated. I think the TV in the room was as old as me! One of the things I really enjoyed about my stay here is that you could leave a list outside your door of things you needed for your room (coffee stuff, towels, etc.) instead of housekeeping coming in every day. Definitely could use a facelift, but for the price it was fine for a few nights.

The hotel was in a perfect location for our stay in Waterloo. Easy access to main highways, shopping mall close and several dining options in short drive. Staff very friendly and room was comfortable. Had it been warmer weather, I would have really enjoyed sitting outside on patio set up with table and chairs that was outside our room.

Beds were uncomfortable, mattress was too soft. Other guests that Friday night were loud with young teenagers running up and down the hall. That means poor security.
