I know there have been mixed reviews about the La Tour Hotel (literally across the street from the Consulate). We found it adequate, clean, not fancy. It was OK.

However, could not regulate the water in the shower....flashes of VERY hot water, it was funny after a while. Took forever to shower.

Anyone else with similar experience or was it just our room.

PS it was neat to SEE everything I had been reading about for months. Thanks to all for your reviews over the months, they were helpful. In case you missed it, mine was posted earlier today.

I think I may recall my showers do the same, at least at first!! The hotel is nothing fancy!! If my wife had been there, we would have probably gone to a bit nicer hotel!! By myself; any room with a fridge to keep my beer cold is a bonus,lol

Canadians Visiting the USA while undergoing the visa process, my free advice:

1) Always tell the TRUTH. never lie to the POE officer

2) Be confident in ur replies

3) keep ur response short and to the point, don't tell ur life story!!

4) look the POE officer in the eye when speaking to them. They are looking for people lieing and have been trained to find them!

5) Pack light! No job resumes with you

6) Bring ties to Canada (letter from employer when ur expected back at work, lease, etc etc)

7) Always be polite, being rude isn't going to get ya anywhere, and could make things worse!!

8) Have a plan in case u do get denied (be polite) It wont harm ur visa application if ur denied,that is if ur polite and didn't lie! Refer to #1
