Loved the price for the location you're staying in. Unfortunately windows aren't that tight so if someone was yelling on the street in the middle of the night or partying you'd wake up. Nothing ear plugs can't fix though. Friendly staff and good food. Was fantastic!

Cool stay

I arrived late because of a train delay and was still nicely welcomed. Penthouse was great. Breakfast included was nice to start the day along with smiles from the day staff.

Weekend getaway

You'll do well to find better value in CT. Clean, comfortable and walking distance to most attractions. Good restaurant at GF level. Very impressed. I've stayed here many times and will stay again.

CT 7's get away

I've booked this Hotel 5 times. Great value, location is brilliant. At night, Long Street and Waterfront are lively. There are prowlers the locality but nothing the hotel can do about that. It's a great hotel, good value, goid breakfast and they go the extra mile. Do no expect 'views', a large comfortable room on walking distance to most attractions with good breakfast. If I had negatives, the lack of a suspended ceiling for esthetics does little to hear noise from shower above and piles of linen in stairwell looked unsightly but I'm guessing most folk use the lift. I'll definately stay again.

The intersection of Long and Castle isn't the safest, so I would advise against walking back to the hotel at too late an hour; grab a cab, even if it's just a few blocks. Room 403 has a ventilation issue: cigarette smoke from a lower unit was getting into our room. Our bathroom sink and shower drain weren't draining properly, but that only happened on our last night and didn't affect our visit.
