Pick a different hotel in Kenora

This hotel had no restaurant on site, no bar/lounge and a pool that was closed long time ago and yet they charge $500 per night. Ridiculous! What hotel doesn’t at least have a restaurant?

The hotel is nice and clean. The rooms are small. No pool or hot tub, you can use the rec centres across the street for free, worst bed sore neck, shoulder and hip from bed, no restaurant, safeway 5-10 minute walk, no lounge, one restaurant 5 minutes very busy suggest making reservations. Not worth $350+ per night for what the hotel has to offer.
