We came back to the hotel on a Friday evening to find out the restaurant and bar are closed and they sent the staff home... very disapointing since we came back from downtown halifax specifically to have some food and a night cap at the bar. No notificarion from anyone at the hotel, no call, no text, no note in the elevator letting us know. Nothing. On a friday night. Very disappointing.

Good hotel stay overall. Rooms are clean and comfortable, pillow are typical for most hotels - flat and lumpy. Breakfast was good and changed between mornings which was nice. Parking is limited but fortunately we always found a spot, even around back if needed.
