Very nice and new hotel and room but not practical. The bath layout is not convenient and not private. Suitable (maybe) for couples only. No closet, but only few hangers on the wall. No place for suitcases. No towels hangers. The window glass is coated - you cannot see anything outside. Better if they were using regular windows + curtains. Almost no stuff - you are directed to a machine for check in and out. Complementary breakfast is a disaster and better if was not proposed - poor variety and very low quality. Good location and good bedding.

Our stay at Prince Smart Inn was amazing, the room was spacious enough for 2 people and the laundry facilities were easy to use and very tidy. The best of all was the staff, they would greet us with a friendly smile and were very helpful when we needed something. Would highly recommend this hotel. I’m looking forward to my next stay here. I normally don’t leave reviews after my stays, but my experience with this hotel has made me leave one. Thank you for your friendly hospitality.

Great location on a quiet street close to public transit and shopping / dining areas. Rooms are a larger Japanese size but spotlessly clean and thoughtfully designed, with comfortable beds and pillows and fantastic spa shower. Helpful and friendly staff. Nice touch with free eco-friendly amenities. The hotel has a cool vibe -- the sort of place where you wouldn't mind hanging out in the lounge. Great choice for couples and solo travelers.
