The Bad
Complaints were hard to come across. Guests were generally happy with their stay at Lakeview Inn and Suites. A few reviewers mentioned the fitness centre closed too early for their liking (at 10pm). In addition, some guests claimed the breakfast area was too small and felt like an afterthought. However, reviewers were quick to point out a restaurant, called Albert’s, located just across the street from the hotel that was said to be very good.

"A pleasant economical place to stay"
"My husband was impressed that we could not hear any traffic noise, considering how close the traffic actually is. That was a great plus! We were aware of a little fan noise from the heating system in the night. It wasn't particularly disturbing though."

"We had a very nice stay at the hotel. The only thing that I was a little upset with was we had booked a suite because our grandson was with us and they "upgraded" us to a room with a jacuzzi. Not good with a 2 year old. Otherwise had a great time."

"definitely worth staying at!"
"only problem we had was that we'd booked a two bed room and ended up with one bed and a pull out couch. Didn't have a chance to use the pool area as it closes too early (10 pm) The room was very clean, the bed comfortable and apparently so was the couch (my sister didn't bother pulling out the couch, just wrapped up in a blanket and slept on the couch)"

"Superb bed, good breakfast, good location!"
"My recent stay at Lakeview Inn & Suites in Brandon was excellent. The bed was so comfie and I loved all the pillows! I don't often keep the sample toiletries from hotels but the Bath and Body samples that I used went home with me - they were lovely! The Continental Breakfast was very good - if you didn't get enough to eat, it was your own fault! My only disappointment was the pool - I swim and walk in the pool for my knees but the pool in Brandon was just to small to do either and be effective. But it was great just to cool off."

"Lovely experience!"
"Please put two bars of soap in each room-one for the shower, one for the sink. It saves in the long run on cleaning as one has to drip across the floor from the tub to the sink to get the soap if you forget to take it with you when you enter the shower. Just an idea. The hotel is lovely and very friendly staff....excellent continental breakfast. Keep those waffle irons cookin'! lol"

Joshua from Regina, SK CA rated Lakeview Inn and Suites Brandon 10 out of 10 on July 22, 2006 Verified Guest Hotel Review

"We enjoyed every minute that we were at the hotel. They tried as hard as they could to get us in for an early check in, but due to the number of reservations they had it wasn't feasible. They offered to take our bags and hold them there, gave us information about everything that was happening in Brandon, and also have DVD players in every room with free movies at the front desk (not just old ones, but movies that I have wanted to see). The breakfast that was served was also very enjoyable. They had toast, cereal, juice, muffins, bagels, english muffins, fruit, and the list goes on. I would definately reccomend this to anyone that is staying in the area."

"This accommodation was so good that we extended our stay for almost a week. This is one of the best stays at a hotel that we have ever had. I would highly recommend this hotel and the restaurant just a few steps away called "Albert's". (These comments were written by Betty's daughter, Sandra, who made the reservations on her behalf and accompanied her on this trip.)"

"Hotel saty was ok. On previous visit, stairway noise was an issue. On this stay, room was directly across from elevator (very noisy). Also, hockey tournament in Brandon was going on. Excessive hallway noise during the evening from hockey players. Very uncomfortable sleep before a job interview. Second interview scheduled in April 8, 06. Not sure if would stay in same hotel or move to Canada Inns."
