Another first, they have a bar / restaurant on the 7 floor! Bed was very comfy, linens fresh and very plush. I will definitely come back here on my next Houghton trip.

We found the individuals cold and uninterested in creating a welcoming environment. In contrast the bartender in the Counting Room made the experience very special. Food: I see other reviews were positive about the breakfast, but we were underwhelmed. Bagels, toast and cold cereal are not that exciting but to be fair we did not try the quiche. Coffee was mediocre at best. The room: Nice, bed is a bit low to the ground but tolerable. Shower was good. Bathtub looked enticing but didn't try. The French Press coffee in the room was a nice touch, but was tempered by the fact that there was only enough to make one cup?! Lost the "wow" factor on that note. Parking: Great space across the street, covered with easy access. Overall this hotel seems to be striving for the niche boutique experience, has the potential, but misses the mark.

The rooms itself has high ceilings and odd enough, slightly thin walls. We could hear (I think) the people straight above us singing loud while in the bathroom. The breakfast was pretty impressive compared to most average hotels. They had a nice selection of toppings for cooked oatmeal, a couple waffle makers, yogurt, frittas (more like omelette), biscuit, gravy with sausage (that was out by 8am, so couldn't try it). But the spread of options was a lot more than the usual dry cereal bar, yogurt, bread and bagels.

However, due to Covid a lot of main camping sites were closed at the time. We knew this prior and researched the area we wanted to camp. Sadly, when we arrived the person that did camp there misinformed us as there are signs that tell you not to publically camp at the site. We did not want to break any rules so we decided to try to find a last minute place to sleep. Luckily, we found a place right in Houghton. We got to pass by a beautiful water front and a mini bridge. It was quite beautiful and I definitely would love to visit the city again. The inn was safely following protocals for Covid. We got our room key and went to our room. The pool room was open, but only a certain amount of people were allowed in at once. Luckily, it was super late so no one was in the pool area. We decided to stop by the jacuzzi to check it out. The room itsef was super clean and comfortable. It was definitely worth the price. I enjoyed our night stay. I would come back again in the future.

There is a complementary breakfast included in the dining area which was fantastic including fresh waffles, breakfast sandwiches, muffins, cereal, eggs, OJ, yoghurt, great coffee and more. Great seating area outside with multiple piers and benches. The Lobby was very nice too! Now why only 4 stars? (Considered 3 stars) The rooms are set up with the sink outside of the bathroom by the door with no toilet lid, so using the restroom and trying the change is quite challenging (light switch also on the outside of the bathroom) That was just an FYI.... The downside/weird experience was the housekeeping. When we first got into the room, all seemed well until we checked out the toilet and the prior occupants sh*t stains where in there. We asked the front desk to remedy, and the manager on duty told US to catch housekeeping in the morning. The next day, we did, and showed the employee what was wrong and actually tipped him $5 because we felt bad he had to clean it. When we got back to our room hours later, the sh*t stains were still there, the beds were not made and nothing cleaned.... only the garbage has been taken. We stayed 4 nights and NEVER got any room service and had to ask for more toilet paper and clean towels - even though the housekeeping team was up and down the hallway each morning when we left for the day. (We did not have a "Do not Disturb" sign on the door) when we finally said something the third night to the front desk, the manager on duty basically shrugged and said "Good help is hard to find" and gave us more towels and toilet paper. I have been to many hotels and have never experienced what occurred at this place. It was the strangest thing and obviously they cannot manage their housekeeping staff. I want to say that we will be back, however the lack of support and attention to basic housekeeping and responses from the front desk was weird and off putting.

The "Hotels.com" app I used was useless and their customer service was terrible so I contacted the hotel directly and explained the problem (I didn't want to lose the reservation). The lady I spoke with was awesome and completely put me at ease with the situation. I didn't find out till the next day (when we finally arrived) that the lady's name is BRANDY (I hope I remembered correctly). When I did arrive at the hotel she was the best. She got me checked in and made sure that everything was up to expectations. The hotel was great. It was above clean and comfortable. The bed was comfortable. It's probably the cleanest and most comfortable hotel I've ever stayed at. THANK YOU BRANDY and thank you Ramadan by Wyndham Hancock Waterfront. I can't wait to come back next year!

We also got some breakfast in the morning. The food wasn't too bad. We enjoyed our stay. Our room was clean, bathrooms were clean, and the pool was clean. We would definitely come back again.

They accept no funny business and when I call to ask WHY they kicked me out after a hard days work,, they simply hang up on me repeatedly...

Btw I was planning on tipping generously as I usually do, but due to the no service I will no longer tip at all! Unfortunate the way they treat their customers, as if they are all worthless in the long run.
