Swiss Cottage Inn

Our goal in finding a hotel in Niaraga was for it to be cheap enough that we could use the money saved on a hotel room to do other activities, such as Maid of the Mist. This hotel was a big help in achieving that goal and I almost didn't believe the price I found online. We weren't expecting anything fancy for the price we paid & we got about what we expected. Everything seemed to be clean, but this isn't a place to go expecting luxury amenities. We were looking for a great deal on a place to lay our heads at night, and that's exactly what we got.

Relaxing by reading ,watching TV, sitting in the verandah outside the room.

We looked for somewhere to stay near Niagra falls. We booked because of the price, but next time would look for somewhere closer to the falls. The beds were good, the room was clean and it met our basic needs. However for a few dollars more we would probably stay somewhere just a little nicer next time. The only real negative coments were that the walls are very thin and when our neighbours came in late we could hear every word they said until they went to sleep.

just ok for staying ,may not suggest to anyone , go for other

Nice budget hotel for a budget traveller. Friendly Staff. The hotel is about 3.5 miles away from the falls, but you can use the trolley for free and it takes less than 10 minutes to get there

clean friendly and good service

Gud for one night stay. Needs to change the old stuff

Room was tiny, seemed to be converted from an office. Looking at the front of the room from outside, it seemed to be 1/3 to 1/2 size smaller that all the other rooms. The front and part of one side wall were glass, faced the road and had broken screens. Couldn't open blinds at night because of broken screens that would let bugs in, plus we were on the end right by a major road and people could see in. The beds were very uncomfortable as I woke up sore every morning I slept there. The carpeting had several stains everywhere. I swear when I showered after walking on them barefoot the night before and a bit during that morning I had black stuff come off the bottom of my feet from the carpeting. Air conditioner was sub-par and didn't produce much for cool air unless you stood 2 inches from it. Walls were gray and white with many nails and screws sticking out of them where it looked like shelving was removed and fake brick on the other side of the room, depressing. Wall also had a coiled up white wire sticking out of it with bare ends showing. Not sure what that was for. To dry one's hair you had to plug your dryer into outlet located in the closet, yes closet, because that is where the outlet was. There were none in the bathroom! Refrigerator that was supplied did not keep food cold. It is not a refrigerator, it is an electric cooler, we were told by management and that keeping our food cold wasn't to be expected. Never heard of that one before. I phoned and asked if irons were available and was told they weren't because their insurance won't allow them. When management was approached about the problems in the room and the possibility of changing to another we were told they were fully booked. That night there were several empty parking spaces. The next day management didn't even approach us about changing the room or to even see if things were okay. So, if you want a dingy, depressing, tiny and stuffy room to stay in, by all means book your reservation now, at least there aren't bed bugs. If you don't believe me then you can ask the myriad of people who sit in the two white plastic chairs in front of the office and stare at everyone all day. I am just glad I didn't approach them about extending our stay like I was going to that fateful first day we stayed there. I would not recommend this hotel to a family member, friend, neighbor, acquaintance, enemy, prison inmate on death row or anyone else.

clean and excellent location, close to grocery stores and to the falls not a fancy hotel but has everything you need

Just for sleep...
