Markham Hotels with Gym

I have spent 14 days in this hotel. Good: 1) The room is pretty spacious 2) Quite lot of parking space (can't reserve it but i never see it full during my stay). 3) Free breakfast of reasonable quality. You can also bring it to hotel room if you want. 4) There are quite a few restaurants in five minutes walk. 5) There is coin-based laundary with dryers on 2nd floor. And you can change coins on the front desk if you don't have. 6) There is a small swimming pool and a gym. 7) The building is not very new but they have renovated it. e.g., The TV in the room is a big flat screen. 7) The room is generally clean. They offer housekeeping service every other day. 8) The room is equipped with stove, oven, microwave, dish washer, bowls, cups, knife and chopping boards. Basically all utensils for cooking are ready. Nitpicks: 1) The air conditioner is a bit noisy but it is ok for me 2) The socket for TV are broken when I got in. But they have fixed it in a few hours by laying some extension cords around the room so it's considered ok 3) The mattress of the double bed is not pocketed 4) Some minor issues on the elevators sometimes it stayed on the original floor, instead of moving to the target floor (I encountered twice) 5) The bleach of the swimming pool is a bit strong I always got red eyes for a few hours after swimming.

This hotel was very satisfying and offered great value for money. **Facilities:** Pretty good! It even had a kitchen with pots and pans. Although I didn't use them, the facilities were fully equipped, and the room rate was reasonable, which is commendable. **Hygiene:** Clean and tidy. **Environment:** Nice. There's a car park, and a Quanjude restaurant right downstairs. **Service:** The front desk staff were very helpful and spoke Chinese, which made things a lot easier. The service staff were enthusiastic and proactively offered to help with luggage.

The service was good overall. I like that it provides enough parking spaces. Just a few things: 1. there was no conditioner in the bottle. 2. no slippers provided. 3. Water was dripping from the faucet of the shower, even I tried hard to turn it off.

The sofa bed in the room was too soft. It was better after we took the mattress off and put it on the floor, so you might want to consider that if you plan to use the sofa bed. Overall, it was still okay.
