Very clean, centrally located hotel within walking distance of the subway, buses, restaurants, and medical offices. The staff is professional, polite, and extremely helpful, especially Alex, Ezno, David, and Koeo, who go above and beyond to make your stay convenient. I would definitely stay here again.

You need to follow instruction to inform them before 11am for room cleaning service. One day we were late and went to front desk to tell them at noon and turns out no cleaning or changing towel when we back at night. But the front desk still helpful and arranged clean towels for us that night.

The staff was amazing. The bed was kinda hard and should I say that the following day of my stay I saw a blood stain on my bedsheet that I thought I bled. I called for room service and they were fast to change it. Overall my stay was great just wish they could put more effort in cleaning the room.

Some staffs are helpful but some are not . Received a different room type from picture on Expedia.ca . If they are selling no window room . They should have detail informations to customers when customers book the room , that is fairly to customers.

I was surprised at how run down the place was. I heard so many good reviews but was definitely disappointed. We had to change rooms due to cigarette smoke and half the outlet ports didn’t work. Also I asked to have the room made up and they didn’t.
