It was nice and roomy, the location was great, walking distance from a lot of things. Parking was a bit of a struggle as there is a 6ft height restriction (we had a cargo top on our van), the alternate parking is a bit of a walk. The staff were friendly and the room was clean. Great hotel.

it is in a great location. The property is a bit tired and could use some sprucing up. Staff was nice and everything was clean. Rooms were large with kitchenettes. If the breakfast is a motivator… don’t. pick up a few groceries..

Overall the stay was pleasant, after we were able to get checked in, there was some confusion because my room had been give to another guest so I assume they gave us her which then meant we didn’t have wifi because the room number and my last name didn’t match, also later into the evening suddenly several lights and outlets stopped working…other than that it was fine.

Hotel advertises they have a pool. They do not have a pool... they have access to a pool at a different hotel that is a 5 minute walk away. Not ideal for small children and a disappointment. Parking is very limited and we had to park at another hotels parking garage a few km away. Hotel is close to the waterfront and an easy walk.
