9.2/10 Wonderful! (425 reviews)

The 2 bedroom apartment was excellent. We had an on-suite washer and dryer, so we came home with clean clothes. It's at the top of Dow's Lake, one block from Preston, so a very walkable neighborhood.

8.6/10 Excellent! (1,337 reviews)

Very comfortable and recently renovated room! Felt very clean and smelled great. We had a view of the Parliament Buildings from our room on the 24th floor. Only negative to say was at around 9ish on Saturday morning there was some drilling and banging that sounded very close to our wall that woke us up. Wouldn’t normally be an issue but we were at a concert the night before and out late so were trying to sleep in. Other than that we were very happy with our stay and the Starbucks attached to the hotel was a plus.
