Less than positive
Bathroom is so tiny you can barely change into clothes, no hooks on door or wall to hang up clothes when you come out of shower. Told housekeeping not to clean room but we needed clean face clothes, she did not bring us any. Had to phone the front desk from the pool area to get some towels, the worker showed up with 6 towels and they were all taken when he came in because the pool was really busy. Had to call again for more towels, he came back with a small arm load, and I managed to get 3 towels for the 4 of us. Balcony had garbage on it. Free water in Lobby was always empty so we couldn’t fill our cups. Fridge in room was turned up high but was barely cold enough to keep our drinks cool. Hotel is outdated and is in need of renovations

Nice staff, very good location if driving.
Great location for what we needed - given we were driving to places around the greater StJ's area and beyond. The staff are very nice and helpful, although they don't communicate between the teams as well as they should. The building is showing its age, but is overall clean and in reasonable shape. However, the key card system probably needs an update - we had to get new key cards 4 times over 6 nights as they were failing no matter how much care we took with them.
