Staybridge Suites Oakville - Burlington

What is your Priority Club status?
Platinum.

Were you (or for multi-stayers are you generally) happy with the hotel/stay?
Yes.

Which room did you book and which upgrade did you receive?
Booked King Suite, given same.

How are the rooms?
Main entry room with kitchen, sofa & ottoman, 8m deep x 3.5m wide.

Then doors to bedroom and bath area, also 8m deep x 3.5m wide.

Furnishings in pretty good shape.

Well-equipped with nice large HDTV, full-sized fridge, four-burner stove, microwave etc.

How is the exec. lounge?
N/A

What was good and what was bad?
Good:
+ Pleasant staff

+ Nice room setup, lots of space, ideal for long-term stays

+ Comfortable bed

+ Good soundproofing

+ Decent shower pressure with hot water within 15 seconds

+ Excellent breakfast selection, and light dinner offered MON - THU

+ Right off HWY 403 if driving

+ A short bus ride to Bronte Station, then 50-minute ride into downtown Toronto

Bad:
- No HD channels in 2018

- Pull-out sofa extremely uncomfortable ... ultra-thin mattress component with posts digging into you across shoulders, back etc.

- Alarm clock set to wrong time; no easy way to correct

- Public PCs severely outdated, could not load gmail

- Middle of nowhere, buried in an industrial complex, nothing of interest in walking distance, could use a shuttle to Bronte Station

- Nacho cheese at breakfast looked OK, but had gone rancid!

Value for $ or Priority Club Points? Would you return?
Overall, a good stay. Rates vary significantly, but are typically 1/2 - 2/3 the price of a comparable hotel in downtown Toronto.
