Very nice hotel - we really enjoyed our stay - we will definitely stay there again. Staff were really friendly and accommodating- great location. I have no hesitation in recommending the Collage Inn. It is not the Hilton for sure but that is why we enjoyed it so much

It was a clean, nice room in a very cute building. The European style room with shared bathroom was no problem at all. The upstairs loft was the best part about this stay.

Slight more detail must be paid to the corners of the room for crumbs and the blanket for long hair (someone else's). No coffee during my stay and a bit noisy. otherwise this was good for me as it was close to the Neptune, other shops and places to eat and the light rail line. Thank you.
