The area: The area was great, right in the middle of the Clifton St attractions and a lot of eating and shopping options. There was also a quick indoor walk to the casino, the waterpark, and the self-park garage ($39 CAD tax). Being the end of April, it was pretty empty--we didn't have to wait for a table anywhere and there were no lines at the waterpark.
The good about the room: We had a fallsview room with a Juliette balcony on the 7th floor and it was a wonderful view out of a full window wall. The room was clean and the shower had the best pressure we've ever had at a hotel.
The bad about the room: There was a thermostat on the wall, but it did nothing. There was no air coming out of the vents, no matter the setting. It was very cold every night of our stay, but with 4 people in the room, by 2 am, we were all dripping in sweat. Luckily we had the Juliette balcony and could open the door for 5min and cool the room down. I did not complain to the desk as we decided we didn't want to move all of out stuff and we'd just periodically open the door. On the third day the weather got really nice and we just left the Juliette door open. Also, the room had a nice looking electric fireplace in the wall, but no remote or buttons to turn it on (not that we needed the heat, but it would have looked pretty). Additionally, we had a door adjoining our room and you could hear EVERYTHING going on in the room next door through it. It was like we were sharing a room with another family.
