Great location. Just few blocks away from the downtown core. While the room is quite spacious, the bathroom would have gained to be a bit bigger.

Very clean inside and staff are very good. The view was not great, as a run down building with graffiti and a lot of trash outside.

Our check in was quick and seamless.... the best I've probably ever had for a check in. Our front of house gal was polite, sweet, efficient and informative. Hotel is just a touch away from everything but worth the 8 minute walk. Room is clean. Fridge is cold. Options for drinks in room if you want to purchase.
