    Parking $67 a night. Unknown stains on cloth headboard which were right above your head or could touch your pillow while sleeping. No non-pork breakfast meats served with breakfast. Consider offering a turkey based or beef based as one option for the breakfast meats offered.

    The property is centrally located downtown. Lots of restaurants, stores well within walkable distance. Staff was nice. Easy check in.

    See above for both

    Very slow elevators! Exit and entry took so long - no stairs near the reception to use or to exit with - can’t say it was the cleanest I’ve been in for the price but the location made up for it - and the friendly staff - no bar was an issue also especially when the store within the restaurant ran out of beer every night - it was ok we went to the Marriott across the road and had a great time !

    - Breakfast was the same every day, with no changes in items or types( different types of eggs, meats,…) - Elevator was definitely fulfilling the need and the wait time was very long each time - loud noise early mornings from the street was very disturbing

    Staff were great and responsive to complaints and requests. Location was very good

    One of the 2 elevators they have broke one day but they got it fixed by the time we got back at night. Even with both elevators, sometimes it might take a bit to go up or down during peak times. We requested housekeeping one morning and they said we were scheduled that day but never came. Had to reach out again the next day to finally get them to come. They did a great job cleaning though.

    Great staff and location! Loved being able to easily message the front desk instead of having to call or go directly to the front desk. Only utilized the free breakfast for one morning but it was a decent breakfast. Not too much variety unless they changed it up on the other days we didn’t get breakfast. Location was great as it was close to Grand station and within walking distance to notable attractions in downtown. The cafe right next door is amazing!! We went there almost everyday (the reason why we didn’t utilize the free breakfast as much). The room and hotel seemed very clean. I didn’t get to check out the pool or gym but glad they had them available. Other than the usual city noises, we didn’t have issues with noises from other rooms

    The view on the parking lot, efficient but charmless, long queue for breakfast ( sometimes no place to seat) and elevator during rush hour.

    Location, quiet hôtel ( could not hear the street noise or the room neighbors), comfortable beds, spacious rooms, swimming pool

    Staff was very friendly and accommodating. The breakfast each morning was well stocked and fresh. Our room was very clean and perfect for the weekend. There was a water leak that came from an adjacent room and the staff fixed it and cleaned the room right away. They offered us a different room at no charge but we were leaving the next day so we just stayed in our original room. Overall it was a great experience and I would stay there again.
