So, as a disclaimer the Travelodge was full, so we stayed in the much older, slightly run down…read moreplace that Travelodge manages across the street. We were grateful for a place to stay because we came into Kenora late and most of the places that we could afford were full. We took the last room in this "poorer relation" from the Travelodge. In general, it was good. Old and outdated, but clean. I liked that they had a full kitchen. We didn't need the oven, but the full fridge was nice to clean out our cooler and not play Tetris with those mini fridges. Decent location as well. The beds were fine, however the room was stuffy. Mind you it was very hot outside. If we were in Kenora again, I would probably not stay here and try somewhere else, but if you are "stuck" it is a fine solution.

I felt horrible letting my baby crawl on the floor but there's not much I could do. Tried to keep her on the bed as much as possible. The corner of the room had a large red stain - hopefully nothing died there. The bed linens were clean but the beds were springy and worn. The bathroom vanity looked new-ish and clean as did the tub/shower. Stairs - no elevator at the back where you park. Not sure if there is an elevator at the front. Cheap pet fee of 15$ and convenient location are the upsides.

**** Overall, we had…read morea very nice stay and would consider staying here again. We booked a king room with a lake view, and the room itself was excellent. It was modern, spotless, tastefully decorated, and had a comfortable armchair by the window that quickly became my favorite spot to enjoy my morning coffee while taking in the view. The bathroom was on the small side but was well designed, functional, and had a great walk-in shower. One thing to be aware of is the window coverings. The draperies don't extend all the way to the floor, so quite a bit of early morning sunlight comes into the room. If you're someone who likes to sleep past sunrise--especially during the long summer days in northern Ontario--you may want to bring an eye mask. My biggest disappointment was the lack of a restaurant. We were told it's been "closed for renovations" for about three years. For what appears to be one of the nicest (and pricier) hotels in the area, it's surprising that guests have to leave the property just to get breakfast or even a cup of coffee. The revolving top floor seems like it would make an incredible restaurant with amazing views--I hope they bring it back someday. Given the nightly rate, I expected a more complete hotel experience. The front desk staff were fine, but not particularly welcoming. We also received a rather odd phone call one morning asking whether a woman had been banging on our door. The employee kept repeating "good morning" before explaining why she was calling, which made for a confusing interaction. The outside of the property could also use some attention. The parking lot is full of potholes and definitely needs resurfacing. We also noticed people loitering near the entrance, which wasn't the greatest first impression. One other downside: we could hear guests in a nearby room coming and going after 11:00 p.m., which interrupted our sleep. The good news is that several restaurants and coffee shops are only about a 10-minute walk away, so there are convenient dining options nearby. This hotel has all the makings of a five-star stay. If they reopened the restaurant, improved the exterior, upgraded the window coverings, and polished a few customer service details, it would be an easy five stars from us.

Couldn't ask for much more.. except it seemed a little bit dated and not as modern but still very clean regardless. Loved the senic views of Kenora in general and was a nice day to escape the big city. Consider coming here instead of stopping in a bigger city for sure! Is what I would say!!

The breakfast was cooked from scratch and each morning was something different but equally delicious. They give you an option of what time you'd prefer breakfast which I found convenient since we were there on a business trip. The entire house is beautiful; the rooms, the bathrooms & tub, the backyard with the pond & hammock, and the breakfast room overlooking the yard. It's a couple of blocks from downtown and from the water which is a nice walk. Highly recommend this if you are staying in Kenora whether for business or pleasure.

The rooms were very clean and looks like they were recently spruced up with a clean white look. We booked this hotel because it was cheaper then a lot of the other hotels and being Harbour Fest weekend it was a great deal. Our room was on the second floor and there is a view of Lake of the Woods. There is however a long gazebo style hall that is extremely hot because of the AC units but once you're in your room it's very cool. (It was very hot that day so I'm guessing it's not always like that) Definitely will be staying here the next time we are in Kenora!!

Upon opening the door to the room, the window was wide open, seemingly to air out the wretched smell of festering bacteria and pot smoke. There were crumbs of weed on the bed. A few pills, possibly from past guests, were scattered below and behind the toilet. There were blood stains on the walls and sheets, an empty beer can lay deceased underneath the bed amongst many corpses of winged insects, adding to the offensive smell of the room, the soiled carpets had never witnessed a vacuum in their lifetime, spiders dotted the walls and ceiling, the door would only close if using the deadbolt and otherwise was as open as a 24 hour soup kitchen. Our 6am checkout couldn't come quick enough. All of this for $153 for the night, plus a $200 deposit incase there was "something wrong with the room". Finally, we were vocalised at by a patron sitting on their balcony making wild animal noises at us. Do yourself a favour and as Jim Carey said "Do NOT, go in there." Pay the extra little bit and go elsewhere.
