Joel was working at the front desk. He was amazing. I mistakenly thought the shuttle was 24 hour to the airport. It apparently only starts at 7am. I told him I actually booked with another hotel, but my brother said that was not a good choice, and therefore I chose the Viscount, partly because of the free shuttle. He gave me a voucher for a taxi and scheduled it for me. He gave me a couple of city bus tickets as I wanted to take a city bus ride to visit my father who lived just a few km down Portage, and I had no Canadian cash. He was amazing. As far as the room goes, it was immaculately clean. The water was clean and didn't take long to fill the tub to have a lovely hot bath. I live in the country so I was a little sensitive to the road traffic noise. I dont think it was loud, but I'm just used to super quiet. The bed however, was an issue. It was very soft. I cannot speak to the amenities as the pool, restaurant breakfast as I never used them.
