Very convenient to 401 and Great Lakes Wtrfr Trail

Elevator was down and we were bike packing, fortunately they were able to accommodate a lower room so only had to carry them one flight. Otherwise everything else was great.

Overall very good with some room for improvement.

Some parts of the building need a facelift. The one elevator was out of service. Shower was excellent. Quiet facility with a group of restaurants across the parking lot.

The overall condition and cleanliness of this location are horrible. Smells musty, was not very clean, and overall, the location needs to be renovated.
