The hotel seems new and extra amenities are lacking. Good base to explore the region but you need own transport to get around (ie not walking distance to town). Breakfast is basic. We eat our meals in town, so no comment on restaurant food. It has a large secure parking area. Good overnight/short stay base ##### Sean ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Westgate Las Vegas Resort & Casino](https://www.expedia.ca/Las-Vegas-Hotels-Westgate-Las-Vegas-Resort-Casino.h19558.Hotel-Information) > > [Best Western Plus Park Place Inn - Mini Suites](https://www.expedia.ca/Anaheim-Hotels-Best-Western-Plus-Park-Place-Inn-Mini-Suites.h26903.Hotel-Information) > > [Super 8 by Wyndham Ambassador Bridge Windsor ON](https://www.expedia.ca/Windsor-Hotels-Super-8-By-Wyndham-Ambassador-Bridge-Windsor-ON.h460160.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in Wolfville](https://www.expedia.ca/Wolfville-Hotels.d6058270.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [Taj Fisherman's Cove Resort & Spa, Chennai](https://www.expedia.ca/Chennai-Hotels-Taj-Fishermans-Cove-Resort-Spa.h526336.Hotel-Information) > > [Hôtel Baker](https://www.expedia.ca/Gaspe-Hotels-Hotel-Baker.h11971725.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in Toronto](https://www.expedia.ca/Toronto-Hotels.d178314.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [Hotels in Downtown Edmonton](https://www.expedia.ca/Downtown-Edmonton-Edmonton-Hotels.0-n6057885-0.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [The Leela Palace Chennai](https://www.expedia.ca/Chennai-Hotels-The-Leela-Palace-Chennai.h4791355.Hotel-Information) > > [All Inclusive Resorts and Hotels in Jamaica](https://www.expedia.ca/Destinations-In-Jamaica-All-Inclusive-Hotel.0-0-d88-tAllInclusiveHotel.Hotel-Filter-Destinations) > > [The Accord Metropolitan](https://www.expedia.ca/Chennai-Hotels-The-Accord-Metropolitan.h1209167.Hotel-Information) > > [Mitsui Garden Hotel Ginza Premier](https://www.expedia.ca/Tokyo-Hotels-Mitsui-Garden-Hotel-Ginza-Premier.h25819.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels near Lougheed Town Centre Station](https://www.expedia.ca/Lougheed-Town-Centre-Station-Hotels.d6215595.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [Crystal Cove, A Tribute Portfolio All-Inclusive Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Derricks-Hotels-Crystal-Cove-By-Elegant-Hotels-All-Inclusive-Resort.h19197.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in Tobermory](https://www.expedia.ca/Tobermory-Hotels.d59192.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [Sheraton Gateway Hotel In Toronto International Airport](https://www.expedia.ca/Toronto-Hotels-Sheraton-Gateway-Hotel-In-Toronto-International-Airport.h4826.Hotel-Information) > > [El Dorado Royale, Catamaran, Cenote, All & More Inclusive Adults Only](https://www.expedia.ca/Playa-Del-Carmen-Hotels-El-Dorado-Royale.h916205.Hotel-Information) > > [ITC Grand Chola, a Luxury Collection Hotel, Chennai](https://www.expedia.ca/Chennai-Hotels-ITC-Grand-Chola.h4942760.Hotel-Information) > > [Grand Chennai by GRT Hotels](https://www.expedia.ca/Chennai-Hotels-Grand-Chennai-By-GRT-Hotels.h1598912.Hotel-Information) ### Flights > [flights from deer lake regional airport](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/airports/ydf/flights-from-deer-lake-regional-airport) > > [flights from charlottetown airport](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/airports/yyg/flights-from-charlottetown-airport) > > [Flights from Pearson Intl. to ROM-All Airports](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yyz/rom/toronto-to-rome) > > [Qatar Airways](https://www.expedia.ca/Qatar-Airways-Flights.cQR.Travel-Guide-Airlines) > > [Flights from Toronto (YYZ) to Cleveland (CLE)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yyz/cle/toronto-to-cleveland) > > [Flights from Toronto (YYZ) to Hyderabad (HYD)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yyz/hyd/toronto-to-hyderabad) > > [Flights from Vancouver (YVR) to Nairobi (NBO)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yvr/nbo/vancouver-to-nairobi) > > [Flights from Los Angeles (LAX) to Winnipeg (YWG)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/lax/ywg/los-angeles-to-winnipeg) ### Packages > [Machu Picchu Vacations](https://www.expedia.ca/Machu-Picchu.d178042.Destination-Travel-Guides) > > [Greece Vacations](https://www.expedia.ca/Greece.d67.Destination-Travel-Guides)
