Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
While it isn't the fanciest place I've ever stayed, I think I love it the most. It is a very comfortable place to stay with plenty of places to sit and read a book. The location is an easy 20 minute walk to the shops on Princess with the option of taking the long way, along the lake front. The staff is wonderful, the breakfast included with the stay is amazing and I look forward to coming back.
