This property has to be the dirtiest and unkept rooms I’ve ever stayed into in my life. The electrical outlets were loose in the walls causing the lights to flicker when they were turned on. The was a piece of 2 x 4 screw on the wall behind the bed. The dirt around the lamps was disgusting. In the bathroom the laminate was fallen off the counter. The mold and dirt around the tub had to scraped to get rid of it. The hotel is in desperate need of upgrades. It is super conveniently located to where a lot of people would want to be but it’s a money grab. Rooms are only cleaned every 3 days which is horrible. Called down to guest services for toilet paper and after an hour had to call again. The wallpaper is falling off some of walls. Air conditioning system has to be the original one installed. So hot in the room at night.

Front desk staff did an excellent job moving us to a different room and offering complementary breakfast but the reason they had to move us was not the best. Great staff just a rough area that the hotel is located in I guess.

Great Stay !

Staff were friendly and helpful . Great location downtown and easy to get to the waterfront . Washrooms were clean and for the most part facilities were easy to use . The shampoo and soap dispensers were however difficult to squeeze for anyone lacking strength . Showers could possibly use more grips . Otherwise great stay ,

Convenient location for sure!

Hallway noise was very loud as we were near the elevator but overall, it was clean and centrally located. More clear information about the parking within the Hotels.com would be helpful - we had to go to the hotel's regular website as well as rely on our own local knowledge to find parking
