A nice basic setup with some kitchen amenities located in an old rail station for some ancient. Indian restaurant onsite for convenience. Really close walk to Viaduct area, SkyTower etc. Some steep hills so consider rideshare or Transit if mobility is an issue. Parking was easy, right out front but limited space so pre book! Would stay here again.

Good location, nice architecture but very stuffy air from cooking smell of long term residents and restaurant in front foyer. Mouldy lace curtains in our room and upon request to change room, management was apologetic and another room was provided

Convenient and worth the money.

It is the perfect place to stay when going to Spark Arena. The place is beautiful if you like historical places. It was raining when we came, a lot of leaks in the lobby. Also, no toilet paper in the lobby toilet. The room is spacious, clean, and have everything we need for our overnight stay.

Very big and comfy bed, large room but a bit basic in fixtures. Curtains a bit weak so doesn’t block much light and a bit noisy but in a great location and a good price.

We only stayed one night, but we were very happy with this property. We looked out the window & it was quite dirty……we simply closed the window curtains. The unit was wonderful. When we return, we will re-book here.

Great place to stay! Lovely staff! they were really helpful. Definitely stay again. Just as a side note, don't go to nearby restaurant called Platform 8.....worst service ever. Felt like I was a burden for asking for one Indian (no other type of food available) dish. Read Google reviews.

The architecture in main areas was grand. The rooms were very basic. Of course it was the prior Grand Central station, so trains still run. Therefore noisy.

A very utilitarian property. The amenities were all there in our room and it was quite clean, but totally lacking in charm. The onsite restaurant appears to be permanently closed. The old railway station building has such potential, but it hasn’t been realized yet.

Clean and central

Lovely welcome! Reasonably Quiet for being beside the train ( — it is the old train station). Clever compensating (I imagine) leaving towel rail on! The thinking was: no need for replacement towels on my 2 night stay?? But double the tea bag please. I don’t want to have to go to reception for more tea bags and didn’t (total 3 for 2 night stay.) but still would stay here again
