    convenient location
    filthy room
    rude staff

    The location was convenient and easy to access.

    I was appalled by the cleanliness of the room. It was so filthy that we couldn’t even take a shower before our appointment. The staff was incredibly rude when we reported the issue, and instead of helping us, they threatened to call the police.

    I appreciated the friendly staff who were always ready to assist, and the cozy atmosphere made my stay enjoyable. The location was convenient, allowing easy access to local sights and restaurants, which made exploring the area a delight.

    Better accessibility features for seniors would be helpful.

    The location was great, with easy access to local pubs and attractions. The staff provided friendly service. I appreciated the option to use a debit card instead of a credit card. The room was better than expected, clean, and comfortable.

    This place suits me perfectly! I love the free wi-fi, air conditioning, and flat-screen TV. On my first stay, the staff helped me find my lost ID card, which I really appreciated. I'll keep coming back for another amazing year!

    great location
    comfortable beds
    family-friendly
    limited family amenities

    The location was perfect for our family, with easy access to restaurants and shops. We loved being only 5 minutes from the Halifax Common, where the kids could run around and enjoy the open space. The beds were surprisingly comfortable for a budget stay.

    For dads, it would be great if the hotel had better family amenities, like a pool or kids’ activities. My children wished there were more entertainment options during our stay.

    great location
    effective air conditioning
    variety breakfast
    room cleanliness
    staff attitude
    parking issues

    The location felt like a blessing. Being close to the city made it easy to explore. The air conditioning worked great, a relief during the hot days. Breakfast options had a nice variety, but the cleanliness in the dining area really let it down. The room had a musty smell upon arrival that lingered even after we tried to air it out. The bathroom had apparent mold along the corners, which was concerning. The limited parking was frustrating, requiring maneuvering around the street restrictions to avoid fines. I needed to ask multiple times for fresh towels. it's not what I expect from a hotel. Staff friendliness varied—some were super helpful, while others seemed overwhelmed. It could be such a gem with better upkeep and attention to detail.
