Liked: This is a hidden gem in Markdale. I stayed for business four nights. The room was clean and elegant, with a slight rustic feel due to the high ceilings, high windows and wood casings. The ceiling fan over the bed is amazing with remote control. The kitchenette was stocked with coffee, tea, cream and cups, cutlery and dishes. The bed - Oh my!! Wonderful! I felt like melted cheese in this plush pillow topped king mattress with an extra blankie I slept like a baby. (yes I slept in a few days) The bathroom was modern, yet rustic and elegant with a chandelier! It was perfectly functional with a nightlight; I have one in my travel bag so this was nice. Do note the sink is low, so a short guy like me loved it. The entry to the room was keyless and easy. The breakfast was fit for a king. I took a photo of it and sent to my project team; my pronoun for today is "King of Markdale" you shall address me. Julia is a kind and gracious host who will customize your breakfast for you. Ask for the crepes, you will enjoy them I promise, with real maple syrup. Breakfast is offered at 8:00 or 9:00 so she can get the kiddoes off to school between those times. 9AM too late? ask for breakfast to go or just sleep in like I did and have it at 9AM then you will feel so much better. I would go back there again for sure; I just may find a "business reason" to do so. :)
Disliked: I did need to work for an entire day on my computer in the room so the kitchen-style chair was a bit tough; but what idiot spends an entire day in their room? I rest my point lest I identify as one. The locked door going to the main home kitchen you could hear activity on the other side during the day and at mealtimes. Being used to quiet hotels as a business traveler and once upon a time having younger children this was a reminder of what my kids were like. Quiet time was 9PM onwards.

It was ok.
Liked: I am not a breakfast eater, but what was served looked ok. I did enjoy the fresh peaches.
Disliked: The room was hot, but if I opened the window the traffic was noisy from unexpectedly busy highway.A shade on the window above the door would keep out the light from the hallway.It would be a good idea to replace the piece of carpet outside the shower with a fresh bathmat
