The location of the hotel was great, easy to get to/from, the room was perfect for our needs (especially having a full kitchen available), and the staff were friendly. I would definitely stay at this hotel again.

Really wanted to give this property 5 stars as it is very nice, staff were excellent and the breakfast was excellent as well. My complaint is that housekeeping in our room was poor. No toilet paper, the night stand beside the bed needed a good wipe down and our phone to contact the front desk was missing the cord to plug into the wall. Everything else was amazing and we would stay there again as we were assuming that the housekeeping issues were a one off.

Super clean and loved the layout of the room. Breakfast had decent options. Sofa bed was dreadful, even for the kids. I also didn’t like how the price of the room fluctuated daily. At one point, the same room was listed for $949!?! Some parents had to stay at a different hotel because the prices became outrageous. That shouldn’t be allowed.

We have stayed at The Marriott in Gravenhurst, 5 Star! In Whitby the room was good. Check-in easy, friendly staff. The morning breakfast was not good!!! Too many people, so congested. Bad layout. Lots of kids making waffles, hard to get to the cereal station. Line up for coffee, no cream. Oatmeal runny, soggy eggs. We know it's included but, not good

The person who checked us in was friendly and welcoming. The elevator and hallways were not clean. The room was grotesquely dirty and smelly. Stains on the carpet and furniture, cracked basin in the bathroom. The worst of all was we noticed that the grate through which the heating/AC air passed was filthy, so we used damp tissues to wipe it. The door it was part of was ajar and when we opened it, the furnace filter was so clogged there was no way it could have been changed in the past year. Passing damp tissues over the metal grill on the furnace produced a large ball of thick dust. Absolutely disgusting. Had we not booked a non-refundable rate on Expedia there is no way we would have stayed

Front desk staff, Shume, was rude and unhelpful when I asked to pay my bill with cash. She insisted on using my credit card that I provided to Expedia and I had no control as to whether they would charge my card or not. This is after I called prior to check in to confirm my preferred payment method and confirmed with the other front desk girl upon checkin that I would be using cash, not my credit card. At first glance the room was very clean… but after the initial few moments I noticed a lot of grime and dirt in various places which was disappointing since I don’t enjoy living in filth, let alone other peoples filth! Outside had piles of garbage at the side as well. Gym… about an 8x10 room with extremely limited equipment. We opted out. Pool area would probably be used by children only as we intended on enjoying a swim but did not find it very inviting. Breakfast was available and we took part on the first day but found the food to be quite tasteless and cheap. We went to Starbucks for the rest of our stay. We will not ever go back, most particularly because I do not appreciate being treated badly and I don’t enjoy living in dirt.

The place is right off the 401, so very convenient for driving. Facilities are a little dated but clean, and the rooms are a great size. Comfortable bed/furniture too. Parking is ample and easy, and there's lots of food and gas options in the vicinity. But having your own vehicle is recommended!
