Très bien
Pros:

Très bien comme loft, on était juste de passage et tout était parfait.

Cons:

Un peu de difficulté à trouver un stationnement pour la nuit en hiver car c’est pas indiqué sur les panneaux dans les stationnement publique et le stationnement publique payant à étage était pas accessible pour nous à cause de la boîte de transport sur le toit.

A complete disaster would never go back. I didn’t get much sleep and never felt safe
Pros:

The building was just a brick wall with a door you had to use a code walk up a flight of stairs and then there was another door to your room with a code. There was no staff and no lobby at all . Reminded me of a not so great European hostel. The hotel is directly beside a casino and there were multiple homeless people fighting and arguing all night. Very challenging to sleep. Also a very unsafe neighborhood, particularly after dark. I’m certain this could be verified by the local police department . The bed could use a new mattress and the shower could stand to be deep, cleaned as there was evidence of mold in the bottom basin. I typically would not bother writing a review ….rather just never go back again however I believe people going there should be forewarned.

Cons:

As mentioned above, the location is terrible. The hotel itself is not much more than a poor rooming house. Located in a very dangerous unpleasant neighbourhood sorry but I think people should know and pick another hotel.

Pros:

Cute minimalist decor. Comfy bed and pillow. Place was pretty clean just the odd mark on the wall. The floor boards come up and move. Had heater and air condition and microwave and Keurig. Wish there was a Humidifier it was dry in there. Overall the room was a decent stay. The surrounding area had me on edge tho. Downtown, next to casino. You can hear people partying or yelling or sirens and honking. One night there was some scary banging on the building like someone really wanted in; I felt secure in the room though. Homeless and intoxicated people outside made me nervous. Some ask for money. Housekeeping girl was so sweet. Had to park a block away in parkade $5 everytime you leave the parkade but you have that no matter what downtown

Pros:

It was fairly easy to use the automated checkin and gain access to the room; the instructions were quite good. The room was very nice, with a good view from the window.

Cons:

The location, next to the TB Casino is questionable. Parking in the area is also confusing.
It would have been nice to have a blue recycling box in the room.
