Chateau Victoria Hotel and Suites
Front staff was very attentive and welcoming. Rooms were clean. And, despite being next to the laundry room it was relatively quiet. There was kew required place to lock your bikes on premises, so that provided peace of mind while staying there.

Strathcona Hotel
Stay was great. The place is accessible and location is good. The room was good although a window with a better view would have been nicer rather than watching the back alley of the next building.
