Parking Issues
Good stay. But parking disaster. Parking is down the street in public parking garage. Was given good directions how to park. Problem was construction changes. As the way back to hotel from elevator was blocked. We could not find a way to walk back, so drove back to hotel and parked in check-in parking. No staff was available at desk or anyplace around to inform of parking issue Being late we went to bed. In the morning I had a large warning sticker GLUED to my driver's side window. Making it unsafe to drive. Had to go to hardware store to purchase razor blades and glue remover. The staff did not inform me of the return from garage issue and no one was around to inform of my problem. A large GLUED on warning sticker was not warranted.

OK, the guy who works the front desk with the huge Afro is awesome, he deserves a raise. Other than that the property is ok at best. Planes started flying over at 6am and they were LOUD. Then jumped in the shower and it was dirty. Plenty of other options in the area around the same price, I'm not coming back

Excellent stay
Overall, an excellent stay. We enjoyed the location and staff were very friendly. I would say this hotel is not full of “frills” but delivers very well for its intended niche. Some might have an issue with the constant flow of jets overhead (be aware the hotel is pretty much directly under the airport flight path), but we did not find the noise in room to be too bothersome. Self parking in the parkade next door was easy and convenient (and one of the reasons we selected this hotel given what seems to be a plethora of “valet only” options amongst competitors).
