Great location, easy to walk to waterfront, restaurants, etc. Small sized hotel located in quiet neighborhood. We had a 1 bedroom suite - roomy with kitchen. Bathroom very dark, could use more lighting. No central air but portable unit worked well. Breakfast at restaurant was excellent but a little pricey in comparison to other places. Staff helpful and very friendly. Would recommend!

Interesting hotel, very eco-friendly which is a good thing but no air conditioning and it was quite warm during the day. Night cooled off fine but all windows and patio doors need to be open, which then brings significant road noise. Must be the time of year, probably not an issue most months. Shower really small, like 30’x30’ making it hard to move around for most. Kitchen nice but of no use to us as we’re only here for a few notes.

This hotel is everything. Great view, amazing space and big bathroom! I love the option to bake in the suites, or visit the fancy restaurant just downstairs. Parking was so easy and close. Love the option to also bring your pet! The room was beyond my expectations, just an amazing experience overall and will definitely be staying here again and recommending to family and friends.

The place is lovely. I love the lobby room with the bar next to it and LOVE the games you can sit and play. Gorgeous atmosphere. Only comment would be the drinks are too expensive. $24 is too high for a cocktail. And the perk of a “specialty coffee” is not a specialty coffee. So you know it’s actually just a drip coffee. So I would say I wouldn’t say you’re offering this as a perk when you could make it in your room. It’s more about managing expectations I’d say. The whole stay has been fantastic. Only disappointment is the bar/coffee spot in the lobby. Beautiful but too expensive and not honouring the “perk”.

This is a very nice hotel. It has underground parking. The staff were very friendly and helpful. We had a room with a kitchen and a separate bedroom which we appreciate because my husband and I go to bet at different times. The only issue we had is there was a window air conditioner that didn’t work very well. We would definitely stay here again.
