Hotel is really outdated and kind of smells like old carpet. Doors were constantly banging throughout the whole day from early morning to late at night. There was also a dog barking in one of the rooms I was near, front staff called my room to see if the dog was coming from my room and they further questioned me about having a pet in my room after I told them it wasn’t coming from my room. Stayed here because it was central in Barrie. I had an awful stay, I will not be back.

Mattress was extremely worn in — sunken in the middle — was horrible on my back. Tv was old so could not cast from my own device. No water in the room — vending machines and limited selection available. Smell of cigarettes in hallways. Everyone was nice and everything seemed clean.

I booked this stay as part of a wedding group, called the 1877 number to confirm i was part of the wedding group pricing and only found out when i got to the hotel after talking to my family tbat i was charged more for my room ( not the wedding discount) additionally did not get the complimentary breakfast that i was suppose to get. The staff were rude when i brought it to their attention so they could at least fix the breakfast issue. I would'nt stay at this hotel again.

Room and facility are outdated. Need major renovation to stay in the hotel industry. This is more motel, not hotel. But if you are looking for a price, then this would be your choice. To me, not come back again.

I didn't mind my stay at this hotel. However there were a few set backs. I requested a walk out room to my car several times over the phone before my arrival date. Once ĺ, i was told there was nothing available. After a few minutes the front desk resolved that issue. When we got ibto our room it smelt of smoke, the screenn door was ripped, the rug was filthy.. i could feel the rug sticking to my feet through my socks. My husband needed pain relief, it was too late to go anywhere the hotel didn't offer any pain meds.. normally you can buy some at the front desk. Lastly, the all you can eat breakfast was ridiculously priced. 21.99 for the buffet - the food was underwhelming. Other hotels offer a hot breakfast similar for free. On the positive note- the bed was AMAZING. The hot tub was clean, ans bonus-- there was a sauna.

The staff was friendly and helpful, and the hotel was clean. Our only gripe was the old mattress and how it sunk in the middle making an uncomfortable sleep.

Accomodation was perfect for the price. Pool, sauna and Hot Tub were operational and in good condition. The gym was well equipped for its size and the concierge was accommodating and polite. Only gripe would be that there was not toothpaste provided, however, this seems to be the norm in Hotels that are not premium 4 star. Will absolutely stay again when travelling through Barrie area. 👌
