The room was clean, staff was extremely friendly. They had two different times to come to our rooms to drop off items that we needed. The front desk was super helpful. Only issue we didn't have housekeeping, clean the room, our choice, we did run out of toilet paper and it took a while to get a new role because housekeeping is not on site overnight. They just need to keep some in the office. Other than that all good.

Well-appointed, Family-friendly Hotel

I've stayed here multiple times now with family. My teens love coming to this hotel! Clean, comfortable, spacious rooms. Front desk staff are all friendly and helpful. The breakfast area is clean & pleasant, with friendly, attentive serving staff and a decent variety of items on offer. Great location within easy walking distance to the Metro, restaurants & grocery store. Plenty of parking in the garage - not so with other comparable hotels in the area. Already looking forward to my next visit!
