Very pleasant stay! Super friendly staff and awesome location.
Pros:

The location was great. The staff at the front were extremely friendly and welcoming. They were also accommodating to our change in plans and welcomed our dog to stay. They offered parking, and were always available every time we passed the desk. The room was a nice size and had everything we needed. The valet parking was a nice option and the pet friendly option was a game-changer for us too!

Pros:

great location, nice room, very comfortable beds, the valet service in the underground parking and the friendly staff.

Cons:

We found the breakfast in the lobby restaurant to be very expensive especially when you pay extra for toast and coffee over and above the price to begin with.

Honestly. It was great. Had everything I needed and it was clean.
Pros:

Great staff. We were there on a Friday Saturday night and the people and cars outside were loud till late. If you’re from the city it’ll be easy enough to ignore.

Cons:

Very small bathroom. Parking to unload was hard. There were no spaces close. If you drive a truck. There were few open parkades that would fit my truck as we arrived late in the day.
