We got there a little early our room was not ready but 2 other couple came after us and they got a room. Could not understand why they would have given us another room that was available. Not great to deal with.

Pros
-Great breakfast and pre-dinner (530pm) snacks (lots of variety).
-Bed very comfortable
-I usually wake up in hotels, but we didn't hear anything in the hallway, we were at the end of the hallway away from the elevator.
-Nice cool temp - it was hot outside.
-Close walking distance, but also the UBER came right to the door.
-Right beside the Citadel
-Checkout at noon - usually 11 in most areas.
-Nice to have a kitchen to store/reheat food.
Cons
-Breakfast done at 930, a bit early, but I was able to bring food up to the room to people who were sleeping.
-The parking is not in the building, more of a "need to know", unload everything to the lobby then take the car to park. Same on checkout, bring everything to the lobby, then go get the car.
Overall a great stay.

La chambre était propre, belle hôtel.

"For the physically challenged, parking is an issue as the Parkade is a good piece away. Also, because of the surrounding topography, best plan on using your car or taxis. Limited food service with the on site restaurant closed after 2 PM on Sundays, and therefore no washroom access in the lobby area. ..."
