Guests say
Guests appreciated the excellent location of the hotel, noting its proximity to the town and convenience for transportation. The beds were often mentioned as comfortable, contributing to a pleasant stay. However, there were several complaints regarding the food quality at the hotel's restaurant, with some guests expressing their dissatisfaction. Cleanliness seemed to be another issue, with mixed reviews about the state of the rooms. Additionally, limited parking and issues with service during check-in were frustrating for some guests, particularly those with mobility concerns.

Pros (+) I've stayed many times and quite like the facilities and the location, staff are always very friendly.
Cons (-) Parking was extremely limited because of an event on Saturday November 3rd. Because of this we had to park quite a way from the hotel. If I'd have known parking at the hotel wasn't available, I would have booked somewhere else. There was no warning when booking that parking wouldn't be available. Having multiple surgeries, a bad hip and knee, the reason I book at the Caribou is for the close and c...

Pros (+) The room and the hotel was gorgeous and cute. Beds were comfortable.
Cons (-) Lots of families here- the "hot pool" which was a larger hot tub was meant for sitting and relaxing. It was being terrorized by a group of 10-12 year old demon boys.

Pros (+) We arrived early and our room wasn't ready so we were given bus passes to explore the area. Staff was friendly. Outside was pretty with benches and lots of beautiful flowers. Inside was quaint and themed. Keg restaurant in premises was a bonus.
Cons (-) It was older and showing the signs. No air conditioning. Elevators loud and rickety. Lighting in room not effective. Too bright in some areas and none in other areas. No coffee available until 630 am and wasn't refilled efficiently. Always lined up waiting for someone to replace empty coffee pot. Important because there was nowhere close by to purchase.
