This is a great location near downtown, plenty to do just outside the door. The building is worn and sound travels easily through the walls. There is no local TV available, only casting. If I'm traveling solo I would stay there again, probably not if I were with a partner. Adequate accommodations at a good price point.

Stayed for 4 nights. Had to ask for fresh towel set after the second night and was able to receive one towel and 2 face cloths. As a last choice then maybe be able to stay at this location.

I would encourage you to ignore most (if not all) of the negative reviews. This was a perfect place for a short stay. Contrary to what others have said, it was clean, quiet and comfortable. The staff was extremely pleasant and efficient. The building is old, but definitely not decrepit. It was decently maintained. You don't really get many amenities, but counterpoint: adjust your expectations. If you're realistic about what you're getting, which is a basic place to stay at night while you spend your days doing, you know, touristy Halifax stuff, you won't be disappointed. I'd happily stay here again.
