I had a mixed experience at the hotel. The location was fantastic, right downtown and close to everything, perfect for our needs. The rooms, however, were spacious but had a musky smell, and the advertising of City View rooms was misleading since there weren't any.

My stay at this hotel was a mix of good and not so good. The rooms were nice and spacious with super comfy beds and good amenities, but unfortunately, the working toilet was an issue during my stay.

I had a mixed experience at this hotel. The rooms were my least favorite in Atlantic Canada, but they did have a spacious layout with tall ceilings, an amazing comfortable King bed, and the best pillows ever. The shower was wonderful, and having a mini fridge was great for storing some drinks. However, the service left something to be desired as there was no early check-in available, which was inconvenient after a tiring journey. On the bright side, the staff were very pleasant, welcoming, and accommodating during the rest of our stay. The location was excellent, steps away from the boardwalk and restaurants, making it perfect for exploring the area on foot. The dining experience was enjoyable with plenty of gluten-free options available, although having an earlier coffee place opening would have been ideal. Overall, the facilities were satisfactory, providing everything needed for a comfortable stay.
I absolutely loved the hotel's convenient location near the waterfront and within walking distance to almost everything. The room was clean but could use some updates, especially the carpeting.

Overall, a lovely stay with minor room issues and hot temperature concerns.
