The location is convenient, and the hotel is clean. The staff I interacted with were helpful and pleasant. The front steps might be a problem for some people. The restaurant is very nice, but there are no vegan options. Also, sometimes it took a while for staff to notice there were customers waiting.

There was stains on the comforter on the bed, the bathroom was dirty the shelf above the sink was dirty, around the bottom of the toliet had stains, the bathroom slider door was covered in glitter and hand prints along with toothpaste. For the price of their rooms it’s not worth it the room even had a weird smell the minute you walked it. I will never go there again nor would I recommend it.

Please ensure that new unused toiletries are left in the rooms before new guests arrive. I was disappointed to find a have used tube of lotion. Also, let's get rid of the mold that is harbouring in the sink. It's not directly visible, but is very visible when you look at the mirror.

Beware of unknown fees
Overall the hotel is a fine hotel to stay at. Two issues that arose was: It took about 10 minutes for the hot water to reach sufficient warmth to be able to shower (it was still overly warm, not hot). Granted I was on the top floor, so that could explain the delay in hotnwater reaching the shower. The 2nd issue was the unexpected "suatainability fee" that had to be paid when checking out. Not once during the booking through Hotels.com, or at the initial check-in was there a mention of additional fees. It was surprising that once you pay you booking and verify there are no other charges.....that at the end you get a random "sustainability fee". When I asked why and for what reason the sustainably fee was collected for, the receptionist tried to give a vague answer that it's for the hotel. When I said "you dont know why it' being collected", the recptionist flat out said "no". Again, overall the hotel itself is clean, safe and at a great location. Just be aware of unkown fees.
