Pros: Clean, spacious, plenty of outlets (some located near bed), bright lighting if you wanted it, two blocks from the Esplanade/promenade, there is a guest laundry room (you will need coins). Neutral: 10 - 15 minute walk from 1 Spence Street/Marlin wharf, no oven, no dishwasher. Cons: No elevator, no toiletries, no washcloths (two bath towels and a shower floor mat), cannot view the TV from bed, Waited 15 minutes to check in--no one was at the reception desk and it was within the reception hours. My suggestion is to arrange in advance a code pick up for your keys. If your flight is delayed and it is after 5 PM, you might not reach anyone.

Stayed in room 303. Quite run down with paint falling off roof. The bed was very hard- quite uncomfortable for us and the pillows weren't good. Went and bought our own. Check in was smooth though and reception guy seems nice. Parking was easy and close to food.
