This property is very dated. The bathroom was ridiculously small. We could not stand at the sink without leaning against the toilet. Could not enter the shower without closing the door. The room was sparsely furnished with one uncomfortable chair. The carpet and walls were dirty and dingy. Not recommended.

Come Bowmanville BW aim higher!

Travelled across Canada stayed at best western pluses sad to say this one is not up to par ! You can definitely tell it’s an older one but cleanliness should be a top priority . The carpet was dirty the bathroom had the tub drain in the soap dish the mirror was streaky dirty like wiped down with a dirty rag as well as the lamps and fixtures dusty and streaky. Also the complimentary bathroom lotion appeared to be previously used. Overall the cleanliness was sub par! The air conditioner was musty smelling which down graded the experience more !
