“Lockview's location opposite the Soo Locks is undeniably its strongest suit, placing you right at the heart of the action. I did note concerns about inconsistent housekeeping standards, which potential guests should clarify beforehand. It seems a bit of diligence is needed to ensure a smooth stay.”
