I bought a deal off of WagJag - Lakeview room with breakfast and a $50 spa credit. I was *so* exited for a relaxing mini vacation.
The room is large, with a comfy king size bed. The room was dusty, the coffee maker and kettle were broken. There's no bathrobe or slippers, no nice smelling hand cream. It's very basic. There is nothing luxurious about this hotel.They do not offer room service. The staff are really cranky. The breakfast consisted of cheddar scrambled eggs, yogurt, cornmeal muffins, bagels, toast (one toaster for the entire restaurant) and fruit salad.
The spa at EganRidge is THE worst spa I have ever been to. There's no soap in the bathroom or anywhere else, the furniture is old and doesn’t match and they made me wait 20 minutes in a bathrobe in an open (dirty) waiting area. I reserved a seaweed body wrap, what I got wasn't worth 20 bucks. The teenager who gave me my "spa" treatment smelled like cigarettes. She rubbed exfoliator on my back, arms and legs for maybe 8-10 minutes then gave me the bowl of exfoliator and told me to finish off in the shower and left. Once she returned , she rubbed seaweed scented cream on my back, legs and arms, tucked a sheet under my legs and left me there for 25 minutes. That's it, that's all and charged me $200. I felt completely ripped off.
If this is part of "Ontario's Finest Inns", I wonder what the criteria is? Another writer wrote the perfect description: Holiday Inn with a golf course". Your money is better spent somewhere else.
