Decent stay!

Room was better than expected, decent bed and tv. No coffee/tea in the room. Guy behind reception was pretty rude to another guest whilst I was checking in. Other staff were polite. Good stay, nice street with good food/drink options.

6/10 Good

A fun little pub right next-door, a great deli right across the street and a great coffee shop just up the street a block we’re all great. We walked to the citadel and then downtown so very convenient for the downtown Halifax sightseeing.
The citadel
Lorne, 2-night trip

6/10 Good

The room was very small but clean. The widow trim showed signs of water damage and/or mold. The chair was not usable as the legs were very loose and unstable. It really requires some upkeep maintenance.
Earl, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

Convenient walk downtown. Wifi did not work well. Since the wifi was not good, the connection to the chromecast on the TV was inconsistent.
Kyle, 2-night trip

6/10 Good

If you’re just looking for a place to sleep it’s a decent cheap option comparatively.
Daniel, 1-night trip

It was not what I had seen in the advertisement and I was not expecting what I saw.

Rachael, 2-night trip

Very clean but parking is limited. There is no TV which is ok, but the internet connection was not good. Makes down time frustrating. Great location and good food places around neighborhood.

Property is old, but functional. There was no desk in my room and I was on a work trip so would have been nice to have a desk
