We booked this property on a whim because of the price, but we should know by now that you get what you pay for. It’s a strange layout and we were on the second floor but could hear every time the phone range at the desk. The decor is very busy. Personally, I’m looking to relax when I travel so I prefer a more subtle decor. The fact that the car lot was locked like a towing compound at night made me concerned about the safety in the area. The breakfast was okay, and it was walkable to the harbour front and the downtown, although the downtown itself is in bad shape. We used it as a base to visit locations outside of the city that we were interested in seeing.

It's a unique hotel, but in a slightly dodgy area of town, but it's obvious that the city is working to clean up the area. Walking distance to some nice restaurants and pubs.

Looks decent online far from it. Never in my life have I stayed in a Best Western branded hotel that is such a dump. Let’s start with the outside, looks worn and a little beat up, not a big deal, crack heads and bums all around, not appealing. Proceed to check-in well the computer system is down, waist like an hr in line to check in with many others waiting as well. Now to talk about the inside, over powering smell of pine sol or similar cleaning detergent throughout the property for starters, now get into this elevator that is probably from the 50s for the very slow ride up having much time to see the filth on the floor, the spit on the hand rail and button panel that looks like it hasn’t been as much as wiped in months, get up to our floor now, garbage on the floor outside the elevator meanwhile cleaning staff were vacuuming and doing a horrible jobs, the carpet in the halls are ragged and filthy doors are beat up missing paint, now get in the room well it stinks as bad as hall, proceed to check beds for bug and find a hard yellow crust on the side of the mattress protector, furniture all worn and dirty,doors to the bathroom doors would not stay closed with little privacy and the one door the bolts were coming out and the lamp was falling off the wall lol. I honestly wish I was making this up but other then being a little humorous it kind of ruined our time. The staff were friendly and helpful but don’t expect anything more than a poorly renovated dirty old building.

Lovely room but a few service hitches

The room was lovely and comfortable. Something happened to the computer system and we had about an hour wait to check in along with many others. The clerk was frustrated but should of told us what was happening, he was focused on talking to tech support. The rooms hand soap was empty and we only had 1 reg coffee pod. When we asked if we could have breakfast early (it was all set up) we were told no wait til 7 am. So we left at 6 as we had a long drive to go. For the price charged I expected a little more.
