Nice Hotel
Hotel was in a nice location. Room was clean and the beds comfy. No breakfast and no coffee provided! There is a restaurant connected to the hotel, but it was closed. The sign stated it opened at 6:00 am , it was still closed at 8:00 am. Starbucks is walking distance. Also other restaurants within walking distance. Walmart and Canadian tire about a 10 minute walk.
