My stay at the hotel was pleasant overall. The room was quiet and included a nice refrigerator. I enjoyed a great meal in the restaurant, although I was caught off guard by the requirement for dinner reservations, something I wasn't informed about at check-in. The comforter stains were a bit off-putting, but overall, it was decent for the price.

I couldn't ask for a better location at this hotel! It's just outside the downtown area of Stratford, close to the festival and all the venues. The rooms are spacious and comfortable, exceeding my expectations with a lovely decor. Though the food buffet setup may be awkward, the breakfast is not to be missed. The Keurig in the room was a nice touch. Service was always friendly, with a bit of a snag on late checkouts, but that's a minor management issue. This spot is perfect for a comfortable stay of a few days.
