Very strong: overwhelmingly praised for central location and immediate access to Queen Street Mall and city attractions.
Room Quality
6.8
Weakened by multiple comments that rooms are dated, some rooms had mold or strong smells and fixtures needing refresh; a few guests found rooms comfortable but overall room quality is a notable negative.
Amenities
8.9
Positive mentions of a large pool, club lounge, valet parking and good shower pressure; some renovation work noted but amenities (pool, lounge, breakfast service) are strengths.
Value for Money
7.3
Mixed/negative: several guests noted extra/unadvertised charges and that the property felt expensive for its condition, lowering perceived value.

9.1
Strongly positive: breakfast/buffet repeatedly praised for variety and quality; staff service in F&B noted as pleasant.
