No longer a top tier hotel

Hotel is coasting off previous high ranking.They have closed one restaurant. Breakfast service is now a very limited continental service with insufficient tables, chairs, and food selection. Cleaning is spotty. We stayed 3 nights and our room was cleaned well 2 nights and poorly the last night. The breakfast was so poor that we went out to a restaurant for one of the mornings. On a positive note the hotel location is great.

Loved the property. It has so much character, with it being an old, restored harbour warehouse. Staff was great and parking was handy. We stayed in a room with a hot, which was lovely after a day of exploring.

Historical and unique but property needs updating. Carpets are old and therefore not clean looking. Light fixtures are old and dusty. Bathroom had no hand soap and there was a lot of dust build-up on the light fixtures. Noise level was due to activity on the street and noisy seagulls very early in the morning but there didn't seem to be any sound barriers so every noise seemed magnified. Staff was friendly and helpful.

LOCATION: Great location in downtown. Centrally located to walk to restaurants and many of the main sites. You can walk up to Signal Hill from this location. HOTEL: Breakfast is a continental. No gym. ROOM: Clean, spacious and with a mini fridge and coffee maker. Easy self parking at the rear of the building STAFF: They were nice. The room we had on the back of the building facing Harbour drive was a little noisy as I think the insulation and windows may lack sound proofing.
