5 out of 5
Hervorragendes Preis- Leistungs-Verhältnis. Zimmer sind wie ein Apartment, gross, mit Küche und langer Fensterfront mit toller Aussicht (wir waren im 9. Stock). Wir konnten auf dem offenen Parkplatz gleich neben dem Hotel parken (CAD 20/Tag). Dem Hotel fehlt der Charme und alles ist etwas altmodisch aber komfortabel. Gute Lage, viele Restaurants zu Fuss erreichbar. Frühstücksbuffet mit viel Plastik und zu wenig Sitzmöglichkeit in unattraktivem Raum, aber schmackhaft und grosszügig.
