Love the overall aesthetic of this hotel but feel it could be spruced up…the bed and pillows need an upgrade (Room 304), door colour is not pleasant, tired looking chairs, tables…loved how spacious the room is

The propert was very nice. The room was large & comfortable. The only negative was the breakfast which was poor. Very nasty Keurig coffee. Packaged instant oats which you ate from a paper cup. Nothing like maple syrup to put on the oats. Freshfruit which was nice. Reasonable muffins. I might have been able to overlook this if the coffee was decent. Went out for breakfast every day.

Very nice room. Everything old though. Drapes and window sheers had holes and blanket was paper thin with holes. Towels were thin and hard. Front desk staff were lovely and friendly they were the only staff we saw. Hotel is old and some wings have musty old smell, but it is one of downtowns older buildings so I guess that’s to be expected. Some upgrades on carpeting, window coverings, bedding and towels would make a big difference.
