Disliked: Amenities
I really wanted to love the hotel because our trip to Waterloo itself was amazing. However, the negatives kept piling up. Unfortunately they don't have cribs which was a negative but not something we couldn't figure out. Secondly, they made a note of it being my mother in law's 70th birthday and said they would do something to celebrate - which was definitely unexpected but nice! However they must've forgotten because nothing was done when we got there. Then, our room had a bathroom door that was uneven and we were unable to close it. The lack of privacy was kind of frustrating. There were a couple positives including the location and parking. All I'm all, I highly suggest visiting the Waterloo area as we had a blast, but I would maybe try to visit a different hotel option.

Very nice and modern furniture and amenities. The complimentary breakfast was delicious and had a vadiety of different options. However our room was a little lacking in terms of extras like a chair or a freezer. But overall a wonderful experience.

Great space!
The suites here are wonderful. We have stayed several times. There is a door between the bedroom and living room/kitchen. Nice size living/kitchen space. The skywalk between the hotel and parking garage is very hot and the carpet is very dirty, but that is not hotel space and you don't have to go that way to the garage. Kids thought it was funny. The hotel validates parking and you can go in/out of the garage. Hotel is very clean and nice staff. Pool and workout spaces are great. There is a ton of space around the pool to relax in. Fun restaurants in walking distance. So spacious!

Had a one night stay at this hotel. The hotel staff were friendly upon arrival. We had a party of 13. Check in was efficient. One room had a noisy air conditioner fan. They were immediately given another room. Breakfast was well stocked and all we needed. Overall a good stay.

Nice room for overnight
Nice lobby, large clean room with vinyl plank floors which was very clean. Charging stations in the nightstands were great. The outside traffic was noisy at night. Train was also close & quite noisy. Didn't like the tiny check in parking area. Not a fan of having to park in a garage across the street either.

This is our third time to stay at this property throughout the years. They have changed to Best Western since we last stayed there and have done a major remodel. The property is very very nice and the staff were very helpful! The breakfast was very nice as well. We look forward to staying again next summer.

The hotel is an old building that has been remodeled and is in great condition other than the bathtubs. Our bathtub and caulking were moldy and heavily worn. Breakfast was great and staff in the dining area were helpful. Front desk staff were less than great and acted like you were a bother. The area was not safe and I was concerned about leaving my car in the garage. Plus a train went by blaring it's horn at 1:30 am both nights we were there. It sounded like it was right outside our room.
