The suite itself was absolutely beautiful! The building it is in, and the confusing and very long maze to find your room was not good at all. Definitely, not a safe feeling for a woman walking alone! Otherwise, the room itself was lovely... huge, with thee most gorgeous bathroom I have ever seen in a hotel room! The soaker tub was so nice!!

What a lovely hotel! Great neighbourhood. Easy check-in. My room was beautiful and very comfortable. There’s a cafe & restaurant attached to the building, as well as underground parking. It was all very convenient on a cold winter day. Because it’s an older building my room was not very sound proof. The room is right over the event space & main road, so there was lots of hustle and bustle. Other rooms may be quieter. I personally didn’t find the noise disruptive, but something to keep in mind for people with children, or those who are sensitive to sound. I would absolutely book the exact same room again though! Loved my stay!
