The reviews here are wild, this hotel is fine. Is it a step down from what the Ramada branding is usually applied to? Yes, but it's also a fraction of the price that Ramada usually runs you. It was $115 for me to stay here and I've stayed in far worse for more money - especially in Thunder Bay. There's nicks on the walls, and it's a little dated in its aesthetic, but it was clean, cozy enough, and everything worked. And most importantly, no bugs. Staff were exceptionally kind and courteous. Mexican restaurant attached Pool is "closed for renovations" until further notice.
