Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities
Disliked: Amenities
There was no bathroom - the sink and shower were in the room with the bed and the toilet was in a small closet. The shower was large and excellent except that it was not private as the long side was glass and therefore one was visible to others in the room while showering. Not all people wish to shower in public. Some people travel with others with whom they are not intimate. Very strange. There is no hotel desk, therefore one must find a server in the dining room to learn how to obtain the room key. Also without a Lobby there is no place to ask questions or find brochures about the area. Also very strange. We were there for a weekend and found that some of the streets around the hotel were closed for Octoberfest festivities, therefore making parking in the area very difficult. We would choose a different hotel the next we are in that area.

Had a great stay. Our room gave onto a sidestreet, and being up one storey we were looking out into fall colours. Quiet overnight. Lovely stylish room. Very clean. Comfortable bed. Easy check-in/check-out process. Great dining and brunch options nearby (the beet and goat cheese salad at the adjoining British pub was wonderful); highly recommend the Mulligan café up the street also for vegan and gluten free options and lovely ambience.

We enjoyed our stay here. It is in a great area. Lots of restaurants within walking distance or good food found in the pub on the main floor. Next time we would request q room that is nit directly above pub and private event room. It was definitely noisy one night. Great many were having fun but a little loud in our room. The earplugs provided were not much help, but appreciated the effort.

There is absolutely no staff other than by phone and a chambermaid who changes the room upon your departure. It wasn’t a problem at all, the facilities were great and it was very nice and quiet. Highly recommend it.

Beautiful hotel! My first time experiencing a self check in hotel. It was easy once given introductions. I spoke to staff through messaging them in Expedia. They replied very quick. I loved that. I recommend this hotel. Parking is the issue. Road parking is always full and parking in the garage is limited.

The room was exactly as promised - clean and neat. During the weekdays, the bar downstairs was quiet, which was a bonus. The only minor issue was that the room, which had two queen beds, only had one chair. However, the price was very reasonable, and overall, I highly recommend this property.
