Super strategic location, 4 minute walk from any point of interest. The hotel is old style but kept very well, very clean and functional. Breakfast is not included, but there is a restaurant downstairs with excellent selections and quality. Only watchout to highlight, the parking option is quite inconvenient, highly recommend to load and unload by the front entrance because the parking is not close.

Great location

The hotel is in a great location. The rooms are clean but dated. Our bed had a large wooden frame that stuck out and both of our two family members who visited our room struck the corner. I think my son in law broke his toe. The pool was also not very warm and very dirty looking.

I found the check in and check out process a bit difficult. I could not understand anything my check in person was saying to me, so I just guessed what I needed to do and how to navigate the hotel and also the walk to the parkade. On check out, I could not understand the staff members directions to pay for the parking. Again, I just had to guess what I was supposed to do. These procedures were not smooth. The furniture in my room was very run down looking. Not a pleasant look, but quite clean, except the carpet.

This property has to be the dirtiest and unkept rooms I’ve ever stayed into in my life. The electrical outlets were loose in the walls causing the lights to flicker when they were turned on. The was a piece of 2 x 4 screw on the wall behind the bed. The dirt around the lamps was disgusting. In the bathroom the laminate was fallen off the counter. The mold and dirt around the tub had to scraped to get rid of it. The hotel is in desperate need of upgrades. It is super conveniently located to where a lot of people would want to be but it’s a money grab. Rooms are only cleaned every 3 days which is horrible. Called down to guest services for toilet paper and after an hour had to call again. The wallpaper is falling off some of walls. Air conditioning system has to be the original one installed. So hot in the room at night.
