Once stepped in, I felt like I was in Las Vegas. I really wanted to taste the Grand Buffet but the waiting line was too long. Therefore, I had dinner at Canyon Creek Chophouse overlooking the Falls.

This time I stayed in a room overlooking the Falls at the Oakes Hotel. Parking has an extra cost of $20 CDN + tax / day. The maintenance service is fast.

Don't forget to gas up at exit 716 on the 401!
