The "breakfast" is false advertising. I chose this hotel based on this, and was extremely disappointed to see "breakfast" was cartons of yogurt, apples, coffee, small muffins, and ice water. That's not breakfast, folks. Revise your posting. This is the reason for my low-star review. Otherwise, the hotel itself is very nice, and the staff was very friendly. The area outside the hotel is not a nice area - homeless people everywhere, although they keep to themselves and otherwise not a nuisance.

Do not stay here if you have kids or a car. The next street has homeless all over. Noisy street, cops and ambulance all over. There is no parkinghere so you have to take your car somewhere else and pay their fee and hope your car is safe. Will not recommend

This Hotel is a gem! Such a nice, cozy vibe going on inside and the staff is some of the sweetest people ever, they were so attentive and personable. The room was clean and spacious, the bed was very comfy and the wifi was fast. The lighting was a bit low & I think one was out but I didn't mind. Only downside is the area, gross and scary. I'd still stay again anyway, because the service & vibe was that good !

Manager Blanca and Reception Chris as well as helping ladies were awesome on the frontdesk. Room is clean, amenities, fine! heating could be improved but they help you with this. Sink water pressure was low but the shower was awesome ! There was a safe in the room (iron, fan, blow dryer, toiletries 👍 one block to shopping centre , despite the street misery right around the building. Still very convenient location, nice breakfast (warm with Jesus's scrambled eggs 😁) I strongly recommend this place 🌷

Read all the bad reviews and stay away!!!
One of the worst hotel I ever stayed in my 20 years of traveling the globe. When I checked in at 18:00 the young man who works there at the reception was not greeting and welcome me to the hotel, he barely spoke to me entire time I was checking in. He didn’t leave his seat or stand up to check me in. Fine maybe he was tired but he have no business being there at the reception. After I checked in my room, the room was big enough but the bed looked like someone already sleeping there before me. The safe in the room is not working, and the sound from the street is keeping me up all night. Homeless is everywhere and the front of the entrance of the hotel is very dirty and disgusting. For three nights that I was there no one cleaning my room and no one come to empty the bin. I even put up the sign that need a maid service, no one came. From all four employees who work there that I met only a nice gentleman who greeted me in the morning and make me feel like a guest of the hotel. Please believe all the bad reviews you are reading about this so call “hotel” do yourself a favour and stay away from this hotel. You will not feel safe, or feel welcome to this hotel. I had traveled the globe and stayed in hundreds of hotels in 50 cities around the world. This is one of the top worst 3 hotels I will never ever forgot how bad it was to stayed in this hotel.
