The location is excellent. Close to the water, close to the ferry to Gabriola Island and minutes away from the ferry to the mainland. The restaurant was very good. The only negative is that the air conditioning unit was very loud.

Overall poor experience.

The first room had a pigeon nest on the balcony so we had to move rooms. The television didn’t work the entire trip after repeatedly having spoken to the front desk and having the maintenance crew inside the room. We received a parking ticket after having paid for parking inside the underground parking lot We asked for the floors to Be vacuumed during room cleaning and it wasn’t

The reviews I read prior to booking this hotel did not disappoint. What a truly great hotel experience! The service and staff was top notch: genuinely friendly, helpful, kind, welcoming, and even fun to interact with! The restaurant in the hotel, Minnoz, had a great menu selection. We had breakfast there and it was so delicious and the service was excellent! We regretted not going there for dinner the night prior but we will next time we stay there! The renovations to the hotel are very nice and modern and we so appreciated it. Everything was clean and well prepared for us when we arrived. The air conditioning was easy to operate and worked flawlessly, as did everything else in the room like the TV, plugs, lights, coffeemaker, etc. The size of the room was so generous too which was really nice; felt like we were staying in more of a condo than a hotel room because of the layout. Bathroom lighting was great, and we loved how the shampoo/conditioner and soap and lotion was all in regular pump containers, not little plastic pouches that are hard to open, messy and never contain enough product. The only thing we didn't personally like was the firmness of the beds: they are definitely a true firm. However, that is a subjective thing and everyone prefers a different firmness level in their mattress, so we are taking no stars off for that! The location is central to a lot of restaurants and right across the street from the harbour, which is so nice. We would come back for sure!
