From the outside nice looking old hotel. Inside it was rundown and not the cleanest. We only had one towel and the coffee maker still had old grounds in it. No where to hang clothes or even put your luggage

Don't book this hotel!

My biggest complaint is the community bathrooms that were not mentioned in the description of the hotel. Small rooms, poor water pressure in the community bathrooms and no air conditioning, which was also left off of the description. I wouldn't stay here again for free.

I can see how some people wouldn't like the Algonquin--it's not a super modern place in a picturesque part of the city. But it has tons of character, comes with your usual wi-fi and TV, and the price is nice.

center of the city close to everything

The hotel is almost 130 years old Victorian style building, very modern rooms, great staff, I was really impressed that I was a little late for my check-in and was offered that I could check-out a little later in the morning if I needed to...very nice. The price is amazing, I am definitely making my reservation right away for my trip back through northern Ontario @ The Algonquin Hotel in Sault Ste Marie...Thank You, for making this a wonderful stay on my travels.

The worst hotel I've ever seen.

Small room with 1 bed. there is no table. The private washroom has old bathtub with no head-shower, which make it unusable. There is no elevator so you will have to climb wooden stairs with your stuff. The reservation was on wrong date which they didn't cancel and the hotel charged me again. I had to call the hotel and Expedia, but I didn't get back my money. This hotel needs tear down and rebuild with new standards and new owners. Don't go there...

Not the greatest

You share a bathroom with the entire floor. The bar is in the same building so you have loud music coming through the walls until 2 am.

Un vacarme fou

À notre arrivée, personne n'était en place à l'accueil, nous avons dû aller voir le tenancier du bar afin de pouvoir faire notre check-in. Ensuite, bien que minuscule, la chambre semblait propre, les salles de bain également. Toutefois, une odeur de cigarette persitait dans la chambre et les salles de bain. Jusque là, pas de problème majeur. C'est plutôt vers 23h que notre séjour est devenu infernal. Nous dormions depuis 2 heures lorsque la chambre s'est litéralement mise à vibrer. Nous nous sommes réveillés sous un vacarme accablant! La musique du bar était tellement forte que nous avions de la difficulté à nous entendre! Les meubles tremblaient! On ne parle pas de petites résonnances, mais bien d'un vacarme innaceptable. Lorsque nous sommes sortis afin de nous plaindre à l'accueil, le préposé nous a simplement dit que la situation était normale considérant que nous étions dans un hotel! Nous qui croyions qu'un motel permettait d'avoir une bonne nuit de sommeil, apparemment non! Nous avons quitté l'endroit verd 12h30 considérant que c'était invivable et avons repris la route. Au final, nous avons payé 70$ pour prendre une douche et avoir deux petites heures de sommeil. Nous ne recommandons pas du tout cette place. Personnel condescendant et manquant de respet.
