We had traveled 2 days, night one staying in a different chain hotel, night 2 we stayed at Thunderbay Holiday Inn Express and we felt so comfortable. We had a 2 bed queen suite which was so roomy and clean and gave us space after being cramped in a vehicle for so long. Breakfast was great and the 24/7 tea, coffee and hot chocolate was such a nice touch. Would recommend staying here 100%, so much so that we have a room booked for our way back through. Amazing experience

I usually prefer Hampton hotels. The breakfast is decent, the beds are comfortable and they are well maintained. This location was no different. We stayed here while passing through on a long road trip. The hotel was shockingly overpriced on the way back for some reason so we stayed elsewhere. It is a short drive to the waterfront area which was a great place to go for a walk with our dog after so many hours in the car
