old hotel with doors that rattle when you're neighbours get in, thin walls so you can hear everything your neighbours are doing and the unhoused freely roaming the hotel. no security around each time we returned to the hotel after midnight.

We had stayed at the Hotel Macdonald several times before... but this time was disappointing. I think that when you market yourself as the classiest hotel in town and charge those rates, then you better get the details right. Breakfast in the Harvest Room was very average, though expensive. Music in the bar was loud and inappropriate for the historic setting. Rooms were a bit depressing.

Overall we enjoyed this property and the staff. Our one and only issue came up the morning we checking out; the washroom pipes stopped draining. The tub wouldn’t drain and toilet as well. When I brought this up to front desk with were kind and took care of us. This was just a issue with buildings of this age.
