Really enjoyed our stay! The location was excellent—close to dining, shops, the harbour, and tourist attractions. The staff were accommodating, the rooms recently renovated, and the included breakfast was excellent. We stayed in a one-bedroom corner suite, which was quiet and very picturesque with lovely trees outside the windows. We would highly recommend and would definitely stay here again on another visit. Thanks!

This is a lovely property close to the inner harbor. A great breakfast is included in the price. The property is very quiet. We usually rent a suite that has a large livingroom with a view of the side of the parliament. It is a short walk to downtown shopping.
