Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The staff was super friendly and thoughtful throughout our stay and we felt welcome and comfortable. Queen St is a beautiful area with lots of window shopping and tasty restaurants. What initially attracted me to the Drake was that they leave 72 hours in-between guest stays, which made us feel a little bit safer during these lock down times. We'll be back!
