Pros +
- Was very pleased to enjoy the amenities of the partner hotel - the restaurant was outstanding and the hot pools were not to be missed.
- The fact they sent someone from the Carabou to help two seniors with their luggage. The staff could not have been friendlier.
- Loved the decor and comfort of the room. Keurig machine. They encourage you to take a coffee cup. Blackout blinds... took a few minutes to figure them out.
Cons -
- I wish we had been told in advance to plan on checking in at the Canoe Hotel across the street.
- Having to check in at the Carabou and walk 5 blocks to the Dorothy. We are seniors and we on the second floor. We each had heavy suitcases. If it hadn?t been for the young man who helped us it would have been a disaster.
- A little bit noisy. Parking is tight. Not enough storage space for winter gear if more than 2 people or enough hooks to hang wet clothing. Need boot trays. Have to go to other location to check-in.

The room was much nicer than we expected and it was very convenient.
They did not tell us that we had to check in at another hotel down the street.
