Great hotel. Comfy rooms. Great bathroom/shower. Pool at the door. Not enough parking in parking lot but street parking was fine. It's August 2025 and they're building tram tracks outside at night. I heard a little noise here and there but overall, pretty good. I'd stay here again.

Property has been renovated and is presentable. We book for a family of 5. The space is abit tight compare to the photos. Wish the toilet had an exhaust fan as room become humid after a warm shower. Bed is comfortable and fit all 5 of us but the construction that had been going on infront of the hotel goes from late to early morning during our stay. Vibration and noise just too much. We wish we were told before this on their website
