Hotels near Dunham's Sports, Sault Ste. Marie

The hot tub and jacuzzi were not working the entire time we were at the location and we were given the option to find another hotel but since we came in at 10:00 at night that really wasn't something that we wanted to do. Breakfast was not very good, sausages were barely cooked and not crispy, eggs were less than tasty. People were standing outside the hotel smoking ********* and they were also some smoking inside the hotel. We were charged nightly for a safe that we didn't even know was in the room, we were told they only needed my card on file for incidentals such as damage to the room and it ended up being used to pay a nightly fee for a safe. Rooms are very outdated and beds were not comfortable. I would not recommend this location. Not sure how it got the high star rating that I saw online, had I known all of this I would have not booked our stay at this hotel.

Facilities: The facilities are very good, the rooms are large and there are many parking spaces. Hygienic: clean and tidy Environment: It is convenient to buy things near Wal-Mart. The police station next to it is very safe. Service: Service is very good, there is free breakfast

When my husband made the on-line reservation he added a request for a room away from the elevator & ice machine on an upper floor (we understand this is a best-effort request). We arrived on a Sunday @ 3:30 pm to a sparsely filled parking lot. The front desk employee was not impolite but said very few words - we didn't catch his name but he had a beard and an AR-15 tattoo on his forearm. He assigned us a room on the 3rd floor (great) but as the elevator opened we found our room was directly across from the elevator door. Upon returning to the lobby and requesting a room further away from elevators & ice machines, he then assigned a room on the second floor, which turned out to be... immediately next to the elevator. *sigh* My husband, now frustrated, returned for a 3rd try and told the employee that he felt like he was getting a runaround. In response, this employee then literally threw both arms in the air, turned his back on my husband and disappeared into the back office without another word. At that moment, another employee (Duane) stepped up to the counter and politely asked how he could help, while my husband explained our situation. Duane very politely explained that the housekeeping staff was a little behind at the moment but that they should have a number of better rooms available if we could wait about 10 minutes. We said yes, absolutely, and in just a few minutes he walked over with key cards for a great room on the 3rd floor at the end of the hallway. Perfect. Our stay for 4 nights was fine aside from our negative check-in experience with a very unprofessional employee. This was a minor request and my husband was not belligerent or even raised his voice. I want to commend Duane for his professionalism and manner in resolving things for us with a solution that was actually very simple. I did submit this feedback to the Hampton Inn. I didn't specifically request that they contact me and I haven't heard back from them.

The hotel itself is under renovation... so, construction, poorly marked entrance to the reception desk, and lousy parking. I'm sure it will be great when it's finished. The front desk staff acted like they didn't really want to be there. The hot tub wasn't working. But the ****** area is really nice and the decor is great. We were unhappy to find that the only real restaurant closed at 9pm, so had to make do with deli sandwiches, but those were really good. Price reasonable for what it is. Might stay there again and hope that it's a better experience once the construction is complete.

My stay was actually tonight on the 1st of march
