Staff trainee lady was rude. She did not explain service procedures and was very un-accommodating and unprofessional. If we did not arrive so late in the evening I would have changed hotels due to her behaviour. The room was nice, the parking was inconvenient. The credit card refund is 5 business days which is crazy because they took the money right away when checking in.

The beds had clean bedding but not the tub, there were also a few unidentifiable stains on the walls. The headboard attachments were questionable as well as , one of them also fell onto my friend's head. The shear curtains were ripped in a few spots. Had to fight with the window locks and the plug behind desk was a little scary as when we plugged or unplugged anything the lights would flicker. No one was hurt at least! We did tell the desk and and were given a much appreciated discount.

Have a car, stay elsewhere.

The parking situation is EXTREMELY inconvenient. It was nearly impossible to find a place to park to offload luggage and once that was accomplished we had to leave and park at Scotia Square and then walk back to hotel. I will not be staying there in future.

The location was great, very convenient and walkable. Transit readily available,lots of restaurants, pubs, shopping etc. The disappointing factors were the lack of free parking, and also parking offsite, no continental breakfast included,the hair dryer broken and the room has seen better days, ripped and patched wall paper,musty smell. There was no mention of having to pay for parking which cost $30 per 24hr period and it was off site a cpl blocks away. Also can't recall the last time a breakfast wasn't included with your stay. For $243 + $30 for parking and no breakfast,for a room in need of updating and replacing it was disappointing. Would not stay here again.
