Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities
Room reeked of old perfume, to the point where breathing was difficult. The bed was not a proper bed, but was a wall mounted Murphy bed. The toilet in the bathroom had not been cleaned. The toilet also leaked loudly. Small flies everywhere in the bathroom. I slept there for the one night as I arrived very late at night after a long day of travel and just needed to sleep, but I checked out the following morning and switched to a different hotel for the remainder of my trip.

Had a great experience staying here! Very close to the waterfront and shopping. Restaurants closeby and a food court/dollarama/Lawtons attached to the hotel via an indoor walkway! The staff also allowed me to stay in my room 2 hours late so I wouldn’t have to wait at the airport for so long before my flight.

The room was okay prettybdated but fine. We had an incident with a package that was sent to the hotel andnwent missing. We were there for a conference so this package was very important. The staff was pretty unhelpful and dismissve we received many excuses and storis about the package and no apologizes. They tried to give us 25% off our stay finally whifh wasnt even what the shopment was worth We had to attend the conferwbxe without our pacakge.
