10/10 Excellent
"The staff are AMAZING!! They were the best part of our hotel stay-although everything was terrific. Clean rooms and WOW! THE MOST COMFORTABLE bed and pillows. I slept like a log and haven’t done that in years. I’m going to ask them what brand of mattresses/pillows they use-not kidding. They are not only pet friendly there but they are pet LOVERS! Just plain nice people. Our stay was quiet. The scenery unmatched as we had a balcony that over looks the St Lawrence DIRECTLY. We can see the castle right across the water. I can’t say enough about this place."
