Mount Royal Hotel
The hotel , staff , amenities were amazing we could not fault the hotel . It was unfortunate that the people in the room above our room did not have respect for their fellow guests , banging around at 3.30 am , to the point my husband was going to wake me to drive home , it ruined such a great hotel ...
