Residence Inn Halifax
Pros:

Really good, and really bad. Check-in was easy, all staff we encountered were great, no issue at all. The room was well appointed, very large, and very clean! Continental breakfast here is actually pretty good as well. Location is excellent, but at a cost. The major issue, your right in the bar district, and they close at 4am. I didn't think it'd be such an issue, but I was wrong. It is loud. I'd highly suggest ear plugs. The parking garage is also on the smaller side and a little cramped.

horrible experience with the extremely loud music, so disappointing.
Pros:

The lady on the front desk who helped with booking the extra package for my wife's 50th birthday was excellent and very friendly.

Cons:

the music right outside which was extremely loud went on the entire evening. This was extremely annoying as it was so loud and never stopped, we had no warning that this event was taking place. we ended up leaving the hotel and checking out at 9;30pm because we couldn't take the loud music anymore.
