This hotel is amazing! High class without a high class price. My room was huge, the view of the sunrise over the town. Walking distance to so many great restaurants and businesses downtown, not to mention the parks and the river. Honestly, this stay have me a new appreciation of Sarnia. And the staff truly went above and beyond to make sure I was comfortable and had everything I needed, and it felt very genuine. The staff at the front desk when I checked in and checked out, they both deserve recognition. I will surely be staying here again.

Be aware parking is not very convenient, also the bed is very thin and cheap. The receptionists are very kind and polite. I didn't think it was worth the price.
