Modern architecture with exposed concrete in ceilings and columns make the building quiet. Comfortable firm bed and big pillows. Interesting room layout with a frosted glass window between the shower and the bedroom. Nice bench to hold a suitcase. Reasonable price for downtown area. Wifi works fine and plenty of hot water. Tim Horton on the same block-- I didn't get the pricey breakfast in the hotel.

Crisp Linens Comfy Bed

I was pleasantly surprised on how laidback this hotel vibe is. Perfect for our 2 night stay for a business Convention. We liked the room and the modern decor , only wish it was a King size bed. The bes is comfy, sheets and towels are like new, luv. It's a minimalist dream, LOL.
