Once again, this place has disappointed me. The food is disgusting and the accommodations are…read morejust as bad. The only redeeming part of the Briers was the spa until a few years ago, now it is just as bad. My grandson has on two occasions bought me gift certificates for the spa. Every time I called to make an appointment (on at least for different occasions) they did not have the staff to accommodate my request to have a massage and facial on the same day. Their inability to keep staff made my request fir the same day service impossible. After the fourth phone call I requested that they refund the amount of the gift certificates, which the former manager agreed to but failed to follow through. Now they are refusing to honor their former managers promise stating that I can use the gift certificates for food or to stay there. NO I will not do either. I honestly am thinking that I will give these certificates to homeless people as they do need a place to sleep and eat and that's about all the Briers is good for. I repeat do not even visit this place.

The Spa was wonderful. The resort staff were friendly. The resort is in an entire need of…read morerenovations. Stained toilet in the room, shower squealed, headboard not attached to the bed frame. Rotting wood around the windows. Peeling paint. Dead bugs around a lamp that were never cleaned up the entire time I was there. Old and dated furniture. Outdoor pool not open. Not accessible for people with physical disabilities. Lots of stairs. Food was average but overpriced. Indoor pool was cold and the showers were not clean in the pool area. Too bad. I was so looking forward to my stay and I was disappointed.

I'd give 0 stars but yelp won't let you. Worst honeymoon…read moreever! The room was filthy (mystery stains on the walls and the sheet they used to cover the bed), mouldy, slimy shower, dismal food, disinterested staff, crowded pool with unregistered guests (this is during the Covid 19 pandemic). Spoke to 'customer service' who could not have been less interested and the resort manager, who was dismissive. Never, ever ever stay there! They don't care about guest 'experience' or anything! There are lots of better hotels. Do yourself a favour and choose one of them!

Eek! Methinks NOT, Cannot believe this place really exists, me and my wife had an ORGY for free…read morethere but not with other fellow humans but with the full time tenants of the establishment called BED BUGGS and the LOVE BITES will remind us of that night for a long time. DO NOT STAY THERE EVEN IF THEY PAY YOU MONEY. We checked in on Saturday and an East Indian Women with the worst customer service made us wait over 15 minutes in the freezing lobby trying to find us a room, funny as looked like we were the only ones there. The Big East Indian guy who seemed to be the owner and could barely speak English kept starring at us, what a pervert !!!. The place smells of rotten ethnical food, pool and spa that do not work, no restaurant as advertised. Garbage every where in the staircase, washrooms and very poor lighting. Dirty rooms but even if they were clean and had hot water BED BUGGS are a NO NO NO. The mattresses and bedding were at least 20 years older and smelled bad. We later went to the local pub for dinner and were informed by locals that the Health Department had just this week shut down the restaurant and the pool of the resort as the owners did violate multiple health and safety regulations plus all the employees and management of the resort left due to unpaid wages or mistreatment. Sounds like a strange story but that is actually existing and right on the Lake Simcoe.

Visiting Alliston for three day in October. Was not able to find reasonably priced accommodations…read morein Alliston or surrounding areas so I decided to drive to Barrie, ON. Came on this motel by chance enroute. My surprise-affordable, clean and still close to Alliston. Courteous staff and quiet location despite being close to a major highway.

This property is dirty and in terrible shape. We went to…read morethis property with bunch of friends and rented the the full property. What we expected was a beautiful property as explained in description and shown in pictures but what we found was spider and mice infested horror house. Don't go on pictures, this place is extremely dirty and ran down. In summer Air-condition can not even cool the house down. Should have checked the reviews before renting this place....

The Cottage is WORST of its kind. It is like HAUNTED HOUSE....The Cottage is full of Spider and…read moreSpider webs and when I mean full means EVERYWHERE..doors, windows, ceiling corners, lamps , under the chairs , behind the couch (which are stinky anyways)... and if that is not scary , then there are centipedes and mouse running in the house + BED BUGS..... EEEUUUU... It's like a Garbage DUMP...The furniture is like the one picked up from GARAGE SALE..all different and Scratched and dirty. The Kithcen is Filthy and the plates and cups are from all over the World , not a single match. and the REFRIGERATER is the BEST ONE...IT does not work and has cabinet glued on it like in 1950's.... The Landscape around the cottage ( if you call it a cottage) is full of WEEDS and Wild trees defining the HORROR MOVIE SCENE.. There is NOT AT ALL enough LIGHTING in the entire property. TIRED of READING...OK...I will cut short here... IF you have Family and if you don't LOVE them.. then only rent this dump yard... Even the OLD RUDE owner or Property OWNER does not know how to Talk to people and Lastly Go LOOK at the Fridge at the back room which is full of OLD , rotten FOOD and MEAT which he says people consume when he rents for Bed & Breakfast. Fell like VOMITING even when writing a review.
