The rooms are spacious and modern and we particularly liked the triple blinds that made the room lovely and dark in the morning. However, the parking was very limited right at the site and the alternate parking was fairly far away if you were a single traveller needing to arrive late in the evening. We recognize that is a feature of age of the building but it is definitely a drawback.

From the moment I arrived, the staff were very friendly. My room was clean and well presented, and the location can't be beat. I was able to walk a short distance to catch a city bus, and parking was always available on-site. The only thing a bit disappointing is that the pancake machine for breakfast is only available in the summer. We missed it by a week or two. I wish it was available year round.

Clean, comfortable little hotel. Have stayed a few times. Rooms are clean and comfortable. Parking is a bit dodgy and access into the hotel from parking is not easy with luggage. Parking to front desk access is my main complaint. Difficult at best.

Staff was helpful and great. My only complaint was the small, thin bath towels so that’s pretty good. Lots of nearby restaurants and water front. For $168.00 I would have preferred a room with a decent view but I booked through Expedia and I guess they have a block of rooms in the basement. Overall it was a good stay.

Nice experience. The staff were friendly and helpful. The rooms are smaller than you'd expect but the location is good. I was disappointed by how quickly the parking spaces filled up but at least they had overflow parking that was a 4 minute walk away. Be aware that Fionn's has live performances (at least on the Friday that I was there). I did mind it, but others may be bothered by how loudly it can be heard from the room.

The room itself was clean but incredibly small … the bathroom was very tiny and there was barely room to walk around the bed. The bed was also not comfortable… all this for an outrageously expensive price….and zero view of the water.
