I was travelling from Alberta to Ontario. The room was very very small the smallest of all my stays. And it was also the most expensive. Only one face cloth which I found was odd since there was two of us. The staff were nice enough. The free breakfast was just okay, during one of our other stays at a less expensive place the breakfast offered both bacon and scrambled eggs. The staff was nice enough. The room was clean.
