The room was not like the pictures. There were cracks in the wall, mold in the bathroom, ceiling fan was bent and filthy. The whole room smelled of old cigarettes and pot. Was very disappointed and left quickly.

I was fine with a no frills room, but it was freezing in the room and no way to turn up the heat. I had to sleep in my Canafa Goose jacket. Would not recommend during winter.

Way to much noise in the room above me, internet didn’t work in my room and when I asked to use the laundry room they just rudely said “sorry you can’t” I asked why they said it was past 7pm I said ok well can I use it in the morning they said “no we will be using it tommrow” so why list that you have a laundry mat if nobody can use it?

Very good accommodation, clean and comfortable, I would stay there again. One complaint is that the Cable TV service said only “to be announced”. & never showed the actual listings. Also sugar was not provided with the coffee makings.
