The hotel is ok.
A good point was the receptionist who, when I arrived early, went to some trouble to find me a room that had already been prepared. I also saw her taking extra time to make each guest feel welcome.
Being on Hwy 1, the hotel is convenient for those travelling across Nfd. Gas stations and fast food joints are nearby and strip malls with grocery stores, post office and Canadian Tire etc are a short drive. I always found at least a couple of parking slots available at the hotel. My room had a view of the lake over the parking lot, across the highway and beyond the woods. The highway wasn't noisy. Kids in the lobby seemed excited about the swimming pool.
The included buffet breakfast was understandably not haute cuisine: scrambled eggs, a breakfast meat (sausage or bacon or Newfoundland steak = thinly sliced fried spam). The toaster was slow, so at busy times staff had pre-buttered stacks of toast. The 2.5 minutes that the wafflemaker took to provide a waffle felt like an eternity. Guests could access as much coffee, tea, juice and water as they wanted.
The property is not new, with many layers of paint evident on the mouldings, and different patterns of carpet in front of the elevator from the carpet in the halls leading to the rooms. The junctions between the different carpets was taped down. At least it is evidence of upkeep.
Whether I would stay there again would depend on whether I could get a better deal at another nearby hotel.
