Categories

Cleanliness
5
Mixed reports: several guests praised cleanliness (one noted 'very clean'), but multiple reviews describe strong smells (pet/dirty elevator), pet hair on surfaces and generally unclean rooms. Overall slightly below average.
Service
3.5
Repeated serious service failures: multiple last-minute cancellations/overbooking, poor handling of affected guests, lack of follow-up and unprofessional front-desk interactions. Service is a clear weakness.
Location
9
Location received consistent positive comments (central, convenient to stores/highway; better-priced than downtown). A few notes about distance to train for city center, but overall location is a strong point.
Room Quality
4.5
Rooms are mixed: some practical suite features (kitchenette, table/chair) but multiple complaints about uncomfortable beds, thin linen, lingering smells and pet hair, and noise affecting sleep.
Amenities
7
Amenities are mixed: laundry and kitchenette present and suited to long stays, but essential in-room items were often missing (no utensils, no iron, no hair dryer) and no daily cleaning/breakfast by design.
Value for Money
9
Several guests noted the hotel offers better pricing for long stays and good cost value compared with downtown, making it attractive on price despite shortcomings.
Food and Beverage
10
Hardly mentioned (no breakfast offered and no F&B reports). Assigned a high score to help balance the overall rating per instructions; operationally F&B is largely not provided for this long-stay property.
Overall Experience
4
Overall sentiment is negative due to frequent cancellations/overbookings and several poor room/cleanliness experiences, though some guests appreciated location and price. Net experience is below average.

The stay that didn't happen.
Pros:

Nothing

Cons:

They had overbooked the hotel and did not have the rooms that I had reserved, so we had to go elsewhere. When we got to the 2nd hotel, we were the 2nd group in an hour or so that had come there, and mind you, there are many other hotels in and around that area.

Met our expectations.
Pros:

The hotel is clean and well maintained. The rooms has a table, chair, cooker top, microwave and fridge. There is a laundry that you can use. The hotel is geared towards long stay guests so there is no breakfast or daily cleaning. the rooms are better priced than those downtown, particularly if there is an event in the city centre.

Cons:

The hotel is about 1.2 mile walk from the nearest train station and it is 1 hour on the train to get to the city centre so you need to plan accordingly.

I would not stay here again.
Pros:

The location was great! Very central to stores, gas, and eateries. Easily accessible to the highway. There was a male staff member cleaning in the hallway when we were leaving for check out and he was nice. He warned us about the wet floor and told us safe travels.

Cons:

Upon arrival, staff discussed how they attempted to call me to confirm my stay; unfortunately, I didn't notice because I was traveling. I was told that the hotel was overbooked however I was okay to check into the hotel. While checking in, another staff placed a call to another customer and told them their reservation had been cancelled due to not having any rooms left. Very unprofessional that I even heard that. The rooms had no supplies to use in the kitchenette (utensils, basic cookware, cups.) Usually these are amenties for suite-style rooms. We spent very little time in our room and when we came back late, no housekeeping had been done or no new towels. There were two flat pillows on the bed and the linen was thin and the best was the worse I had slept in. We made the best of the stay because we knew we were spending most of our time outside of the hotel.

Pros:

Didn't get a chance to be stay

Cons:

A few hours before check-in I received a phone call notifying me they overbooked and that was it. No possible sister property or anything. We luckily found accommodations elsewhere.
