Dartmouth

10/10 Excellent

The staff were absolutely fantastic - super welcoming and accommodating for myself and my 10 year old son. The room was a reasonable size, and the bed was comfortable (with lots of pillows!). The pool was small and the area got a bit crazy, and the waterslide rules were definitely not being followed, but the hot tub was pleasantly hot (and a good size) and I loved the opening hours. Having a 24 hour Denny's attached was extremely convenient, and having a gas station and Tim Hortons right there...
