Review bad bed

As always, the service was fantastic. Got a free upgrade to king-size room, beautiful room, big but I have to be honest. The bed was uncomfortable. this is our second time staying here and the first time was fantastic. The bed was great, but this bed was very, very very uncomfortable. They comped us the parking because of the fire alarm being pulled at 3 o’clock in the morning, which was kind of them as though I never asked for it, but it’s a very nice hotel very affordable and very clean

Fire alarm evacuation- $6 comped parking

Fire alarm went off at 3:00am for evacuation. Ordeal lasted over an hour with no updates. Finally decided to return back to our room. Come morning checkout, we were advised it was a false alarm and were offered $6 comped parking. No hot water available for shower.

Parkade is convenient. But signage isn’t well labelled. Had to walk up 2 sets of stairs will all our bags to get to an elevator. Leaving the parkade was confusing when it came to exits. (Maybe I’m just a blonde 😂) Other than that I would highly recommend this hotel. Clean, quiet, modern and comfortable! Thanks for the great stay!

Nice hotel. Clean. Good location

Great hotel. Good location. King suite fantastic view and very nice room. The only improvement I’d like to see is the king bed was waaay to soft. Sinks down and my back hurt in the morning. And I’m not a big fella. Otherwise…..very good and looking forward to my next stay!

Good location, fairly clean. Only complaints are the parkade elevator was broken so it was a hassle to carry luggage up and down stairs. The pool area was out of towels the entire weekend and they had been requested by several people and never restocked.
