All around great place
Pros:

Like the location. Within 5 to 7 minutes walk to downtown facilities, businesses and eateries.

Cons:

There is no more complimentary hydration lotion in the bathrooms.
The restaurant could stay open a bit longer.

My day was extremely awful. Staff was unprofessional when I called down to talk to them about the charges. They just kep
Pros:

The bed was comfortable. And that’s about it.

Cons:

The staff there was extremely rude. I booked it two nights stay through Booking.com at that time. My card was charged $544.13. I messaged them and told them I was unable to make it for the first night of my reservation so on that reservation I only stayed one night member was charged $544.13. Then I needed to stay for one additional night so I booked through Booking.com once again and the hotel charged me $513.89 for one night stay then I was charged an additional $777.78 for no apparent reason at all. I requested a late checkout, but I can’t see that costing me $1700 and then some. Send over in hotel is nothing but a bunch of crooks. I wouldn’t be surprised if someone put my cash in their pocket.

Pros:

It was so close to everything. The room is quite big, possibly should have a couch. Would definitely stay again. I got this as a recommendation from family.

Cons:

Its definitely dated, and quite worn carpet. Somehow, all hotels source their mini fridges from the same noisiest product range. Would be better if the fridge plug was accessible so you could turn it off. The temp was set to semi tropical....with no thermostat control. (Probs just my room).

The staff are wonderful.
Pros:

Fatima 、Jagjeet These two were so kind and really went out of their way to help us. Thank you so much! Thanks to them, we were able to see the aurora.

Cons:

The room we were shown at first had a bad smell. However, once we mentioned it, they responded immediately and arranged a different room, so we’re satisfied.

Pros:

Friendly staff and corrected their mistake with our booking.

Cons:

We booked three adults and were given a room with only one bed (no sofa bad). I have to pay extra for a cot.
I also found an opened bottle of vodka (partially filled) under the couch cushion. Worst was the room smelled like cigarette and my wife has asthma.
