Very clean rooms. Staff was all beyond amazing, friendly and attentive! The only complaint I have is that we didn’t get a balcony in our room as advertised (our friends who booked at the same time as us got the balcony) and also it got a little bit warm in the room and they didn’t seem to have an AC in our room but cracking a window helped. Not sure how it would be in summer.

Great room size with kitchenette. Nice window view of the area. We got the end room of hallway so we get a nice view from the bathroom window and the balcony view. Quiet place, walkable distance to the waterfront, Parliament Buildings and restaurants.
