Sheraton Niagara Falls
"The dirtiest hotels I have ever been to at this price point. Expedia listed breakfast was included but, it was not. Also, the hotel management didn't notify us about that. No restaurants open before 11 AM. So we had to walk to a seven eleven for our breakfast. I don't think, I will never book through ..."
