“The Russell strikes me as a particularly well-cared-for place, moments from Peasholm Park; the kind of spot where you'd feel at ease letting the kids roam a bit. I get the sense that the included breakfast and quiet neighborhood location really set it apart, offering a welcome bit of calm so close to Scarborough's attractions.”
