Mariners Centre Tours

Location is awesome, staff is friendly, rooms are looking tired

My friend's statement about sums up this property: "For $350 a night, this is a bit janky." Let me prephace this review by saying that there is nothing objectively wrong with this hotel, but I wouldn't say that it is good value for money. For the $350 we paid a night, there were multiple electrical outlets in the room that only had one screw, or were otherwise loose/coming out of the wall. The wood plank ceiling had messy splotches of paint throughout and we noticed in our friend's room, that they actually left the painters tape around the top of the room. The shower took a long time to heat up and didn't stay warm for long in all of the rooms our party rented and the heat settings did not work in our room and it remained relatively cold (which wasn't the worst in our case, but still). In short, if this was a $180ish-$200 a night affair, then it wouldn't be too bad, but for the price they are charging, in the North End of Halifax, I would recommend you look elsewhere. You can only take the "rustic" boutique hotel theme so far, at a certain point it is all style, no substance.

Staff was fantastic and breakfast was really good, will stay again when back in area.
