The room was ok however a/c seemed to not work so we just opened the windows. Be extra careful with booking as guests regardless of age are counted as an adult. Our family was 4 adults and 3 kids (4,6,9) and we were counted and billed as 7persons.

The room was very clean, the parking so easy, the location very convenient as well very quiet at night. I liked the option of having a window open a couple inches. They seemed very protective of their towels, no barh towel on arrival and only one left in the room the next day. The morning desk person could have spoken to me kindly when I requested my room to be made up. It was a working trip and kindness goes a long way. I wasn't asking for the world just my room freshened and stocked. Otherwise a very pleasant stay.

The suite is spotless. Checking in is swift and seamless. But the place is not friendly to the physically challenge, no elevator. But is you’re able to make it to a couple of flight of stairs, it’s perfect. Affordable and spic and span

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort
There's no kitchen on site. Parking was very convenient and safe. Staff were receptive to my needs. Only slight downside is there was no working heating system in my room. There were 3 portable space heaters in my room. Only 2 worked. It didn't really bother me, but a couple or family might find themselves tripping over heaters. And it's not as effective as baseboards or forced air. No heat was on when I arrived. It took a long time to heat the room up, and then I ended up waking up in a pool of sweat. Room was super clean and a great value for Victoria.
