Good location close to grocery stores, gas station, Tim Horton, etc. Staff are friendly and helpful. Free laundry. And the shuttle station to air port is just by the hotel. Very convenient if you need to take the shuttle. Is a bit noisy though, as it’s near by a pub.

Breakfast was pretty good. The restaurant staff was excellent. The room was ok and felt clean enough. The bed was mediocre at best. My wife complained of a spring in her back. No secure parking and no assigned parking made it really difficult to find a parking spot and feel secure at 2am when we arrived off the ferry.

The room was acceptably clean, although the balcony had not been cleaned or the glass to the balcony. The front of the building was hard to distinguish where the entrance was, and the side of the building has been abused. Parking was very limited at best. Service in the restaurant was good as well as the food.
