Older property that has had some upgrades to the rooms. Positives: Room was clean, comfortable bed and nice new shower. No coffee, microwave or fridge in the room but these can be found in the guest lounge. Coffee was much better than most complimentary hotel brew. Patio area is a nice spot to relax, though it is set up for smokers so might not be for everyone if you’re not fond of the smell of cigarettes. Front desk and cleaning staff were quite friendly. Great location close to pretty much everything you want to see in downtown. Lots of nearby dining and shopping options. Not so positives: Parking at the hotel is very limited and the area around the hotel can be extremely busy, so be prepared for a walk to get to the hotel. Not sure if there is daily parking somewhere close by because all street parking is metered during the week. This is a noisy property. The bar below is open until 11 most nights and is especially loud on karaoke nights (Saturday) which go until midnight. If outside sound is an issue book through the hotel and make sure your room is away from the bar. Unfortunately there is no escaping the extremely squeaky floors. If you’re not alone, it’s impossible to not disturb the other person if you get up early or get in late. Lastly, the bathroom window is not frosted or tinted so if anyone in any of the nearby condos has a voyeuristic personally you’re somewhat exposed. Not a comfortable feeling. Highly recommend the hotel invest in some tinting film.

This hotel is a bit of a gem. It's an older hotel that has been somewhat updated which actually makes it a little eclectic. I really liked that! The rooms where clean, but our windows where not. I basically kept the blinds closed. The bed and linens were very comfy. The hotel has a pub, restaurant and a cafe. You couldn't ask for more. I would stay there again in a heartbeat.

The front staff were all so friendly and the restaurants attached were yummy, that’s about the only good thing about this hotel. The rooms were super outdated, the beds were not comfortable at all, and the parking situation was ridiculous. There was very limited parking or you had to pay. I paid nearly $700 to stay there only to also have to pay for parking, or just not be at the hotel until 9pm at night and make sure I’m out before 9am so I didn’t get a ticket. Don’t even get complimentary breakfast for the price it is to stay there.

Great Receptionist

Ashley was at the front desk when I arrived. She gave me the room key early since the room was ready, and she offered excellent suggestions on places I might enjoy going for a walk. Ashley made me feel very welcome, and greeted me by name every time I walked by the front desk.

Pedal Biked to the Hotel

It was nice to be downtown, was told by the staff there would be bike parking inside when made the reservation, not so much when we arrived and had to put bikes in our room. Was quiet and communal area with refrigerator was nice.

For the price, the hotel was awesome! Clean, good service, awesome restaurants at the bottom, super cool lounge area with a sauna! Only problem was the super hard bed, mattress could be replaced ! And pressure on shower and water a bit stronger! Great for 1-2 nights if you recover from back soreness quick!
