Loved the minimalist look and feel of our room! Clean, bright and spare - in a good way. Staff and guests skew young, but that gives the place nice energy. Surprisingly quiet - well, there was that one night and that one couple ;) No elevator, so might be a challenge for some. Close to Bathurst station, Metro for groceries, Trendy Wash for laundry, and countless cafes and bars.
