Guests can choose between standard rooms (king or double beds), or more spacious suites (separate bedroom, king bed). Pets are permitted for $25/stay.

This hotel is located about a 34-minute drive west of downtown Toronto. Mall shopping is nearby at Oakville Place Shopping Mall, a 5-minute drive away.

The Bad
Most of the reviews used for this analysis were positive, but there were a handful of guest complaints. They did not, however, seem to be reflective of the overall guest impression of the hotel.

A couple of guests complained about uncomfortable beds. Guests said that the beds were too firm. One guest felt that their bed was unusually high off the ground.

A number of guests complained about difficulties they had controlling the temperature in their rooms.

A few guests complained about strong smells of chlorine coming from the pool area.
