Great location downtown, parking is a hassle and expensive plus the procedure was not well explained by the desk staff. Really did not need to be downtown since visiting family in Fall River. Booked here because of the price but would have been better off once the cost of parking was factored in to have booked out by Dartmouth Crossing.

No parking at this hotel

This hotel is located right downtown Halifax, in one of the most traffic-congested areas of the city. We drove around the block a few time looking for the parking lot and eventually had to leave the car at a commercial parking lot within walking distance. At the registration desk, I asked where their parking lot was and i was shocked to learn that they don't have one! Guests are expected to park wherever they can at their own expense and carry their luggage from the car to the hotel. The hotel won't even refund the parking fees. I checked the hotels.com website for this hotel and it states "parking available." Available? Way to skirt the issue! I don't know how a hotel can stay in business without giving their guests a place to park; I do know that we will never be back.

The rooms are clean but dated. The fridge was not plugged in. The room was very warm, the AC did not seem to work. We are at Tempo which is on the property. It wasn’t busy yet the service was not great and the food was reasonable priced but average at best.

Paid parking is a bit of a turnoff. If you are staying for a few days it’s 26.00 a day.
