The hospitality upon arriving was great, the daytime team behind reception was less welcoming. Room facilities could be better -- i.e., bathroom light was dysfunctional, deadbolt lock could not latch, Keurig machine did not always work, and fridge was not very cold, carpet was shabby in spots. Otherwise, bed was comfortable and room was clean. Adequate.

We had a winderful experience staying at the Arc! Our check in staff was so helpful and friendly, our room was clean and modern, the bed was very comfortable, the lication was within walking distance to mostly everything we wanted to see and all the staff we encountered throughout the weekend were courtious and friendly. We would definitely recommend this hotel to anyone looking for a place to stay.

The staff were so friendly and accommodating from check-in, the parking, and the lounge. The room was spotless and had everything we needed and the bed was comfortable. We found the room was too hot, but adjusted the thermostat to our comfort level. The only complaint I really would have is the additional "sustainability fees" of $14.99 plus HST / night (These should be included in the price of the hotel). The parking I felt was expensive at $30.00 plus HST/night but when you look at other hotels and their parking fees, it is quite reasonable or on par to other hotels. I would stay here again. Close to so many amenities that were in walking distance. We parked the car and just walked everywhere.
